An Analysis of Grey Multiattribute Decision-Making Optimization Concerning Gender and Sustainable Environment

Abstract

Sustainable development is defined as development that meets the needs of the present generation, but does not compromise the satisfaction of future generations’ needs. It emphasizes the concept of needs and constraints. Women’s lack of development is not the result of insufficient involvement in production, but the fact that much of the cost paid by women is ignored and they do not get the rewards and affirmations they deserve. There are also many other factors of uncertainty. Therefore, this study considers that grey multiattribute decision-making refers to when there are factors of uncertain or incomplete information in the process of decision-making, after obtaining the actual decision-making combination effect by calculating the effect of the combination of all possible decision-making elements to select a scheme according to the decision matrix. The research results show that a mixed economic system is the best scheme for women’s economic security. Developing a gender and sustainable environment can be optimized by actively creating new friendly workplace practices, including designing flexible working hours and working environments, promoting multiple vacation schemes, assisting employees in their career development, and providing family care and support services.

Interrelations Between Ethical Leadership, Green Psychological Climate, and Organizational Environmental Citizenship Behavior: A Moderated Mediation Model

“…Recent research on pro-environmental behaviors emphasizes that gender should be taken into account while analyzing employees’ behaviors toward the environment, as differences in beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors between men and women can have different manifestations of pro-environmental behaviors (Eisler et al, 2003; Xiao and McCright, 2015; Kennedy and Kmec, 2018; Vicente-Molina et al, 2018; Swim et al, 2019; Wang et al, 2019). Social role theory (House, 1981; Eagly, 1987; Eagly and Wood, 2012) suggests that gender-related differences in attitudes and behaviors are socially constructed and emerge due to the two related processes – social learning and societal power relations.…”

“…The green psychological climate is considered because employees’ perception of green climate positively affects employees’ pro-environmental behaviors (Dumont et al, 2017; Norton et al, 2017; Zhou et al, 2018). On the contrary, employees’ perception that organizational policies and procedures do not support environmental sustainability discourages employees’ engagement in pro-environmental behaviors and deteriorates firms’ green performance (Seroka-Stolka and Lukomska-Szarek, 2016; Zientara and Zamojska, 2018; Tuan, 2019; Wang et al, 2019). We suggest that managers can encourage employees to demonstrate OCBE by instilling a sense among employees that organizational policies and practices are eco-friendly.…”

The Influence of Ethical Leadership and Sustainable Leadership on Sustainable Performance: The Moderating Role of Gender

“…Recent research on pro-environmental behaviors emphasizes that gender should be taken into account when analyzing employee behaviors toward the environment, as differences in gender beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors may have different manifestations of pro-environmental behaviors (Swim et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2019).…”

The Impact of the Gender Digital Divide on Sustainable Development: Comparative Analysis between the European Union and the Maghreb

“…The complementarity between these elements has been confirmed by Wang et al [88] who resumed the ways to deconstruct gendered technology by allowing more women to enter science and technology, by making good use of women´s characteristics, and finally, by developing a female alternative science and technology.…”
