Abstract-Career women are challenged by work and family commitment at the end of each day in Government and private hospital. Majority of women are working through-out week and 53% are struggling to achieve work-life balance. Women reported that their life has become a juggling act as they have to shoulder multiple responsibilities at work and home. Both government and private hospital management need to be conscious of this status of female nurses and periodically review their status. They can create supportive environment to help these women achieve work life balance. This article highlights the issues connected with work life balance of female nurses in government and private hospital and the factors that determine work life balance.
Purpose — This paper mainly studies how human development (value-added per worker) and control of corruption (CRPT) impact FDI inflows in sub-Saharan Africa. It also highlights the contributions of gross domestic product (GDP), inflation, population growth, natural resources, and political stability to foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).Method — The study employs the dynamic panel GMM model to estimate the factors that influence the region's foreign direct investment (FDI). The data span for the research was 33 years (1984 -2016).Result — The survey shows a strong connection between FDI inflow, human development, and corruption control. While human development has a beneficial influence, controlling corruption has an uncomplimentary impact on the growth of FDI in SSA.Contribution — There is a gap concerning human development and corruption control in SSA and how they impact FDI inflows. Researchers have attempted to establish this relationship, but they have mostly opted for individual countries and not predominantly in the Sub-Saharan region. This study contributes to the literature by concentrating on these variables (value added per worker and control of corruption) and how they interact with FDI inflows in the Sub-Saharan region.
The study proposes an alternative guide for conducting Application Based Exams (ABE) for end of term exams in institutions of higher learning subsequent COVID-19 pandemic and its ripple effect. The objective of ABE is to endorse unceasing convenient learning and assessment as well as surety of inflow of capital for the day to day operation of educational institutions. The IT revolution and steady advancement in telecommunications have brought about sweeping and multifaceted changes; leading to automation and digitization of learning. Further the proliferation of web-based technology and the internet have made online learning possible in the recent years. This has also led to booming of technology entrepreneurs in recent years. The study aims at proposing the ABE as an alternative learning and assessment module for institutions subsequent COVID-19 pandemic and its execution or implementation using modern technological tools like Learning Management Systems. The study identifies that there has been a big shift in learning in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic which makes technological collaborations and IT an inevitable tool in the entire process of delivering and enhancing the pace of learning. Again, the ABE module has been designed to serve as a medium for educational institutions to continue its operations in the event of pandemics. By way of recommendation, the applicability of the module for conducting end of term assessments in educational institutions has to be strengthened through various trials in order to improve its performance.
