“…Herein, we show that there is a need for a better‐connected architecture and regulations that can be used to support free movement and guarantee the ability of European citizens to work across borders (Abad et al ., 2018 ; Novotny, 2021 ). In addition, this work emphasizes the need to review the situation faced by CBWs and the need to better support their integration into their host society (Böhm, 2021 ; Buch et al ., 2009 ; van der Bank and Rothmann, 2006 ).…”

“…Despite the collective efforts of the EU and individual member states to maintain the sustainable and safe cross‐border employment experienced pre‐COVID‐19 (Abad et al ., 2018 ), the pandemic has significantly affected cross‐border commuting. Rather than being shining examples of solidarity and collaborative efforts to find effective solutions against COVID‐19, European governments responded with unilaterally imposed measures, as well as rebordering (Novotny, 2021 ).…”

The experiences of cross‐border workers (CBWs) and the difficulties they face during the ongoing COVID‐19 pandemic have been neglected in previous research. CBWs experience various stressors under normal circumstances, where they are often subjected to unequal working conditions and forced to transition between two different societies. The measures that were introduced in response to the COVID‐19 pandemic, including the implementation of physical borders, further worsened the situation for these individuals. Herein, we draw on qualitative interview data from 35 CBWs from the Czech Republic and Germany to explore their experiences of work, stress, support, and their positioning in society during the pandemic. We detail the dissatisfaction felt by CBWs regarding re‐bordering, the lack of coordination in the crisis management, and the lack of support from national governments and the EU. This study provides unique insights into the difficulties and experiences of CBWs in a time of crisis.

“…The current research first will establish its limits by focusing on the theoretical and practical insights on disaster preparedness and set its scope on cross-border disaster preparedness management. Although there is a small body of literature focusing on the dynamics of crossborder issues in EU regions, such as the work done for the euregio-meuse-rhine region, or between France, Germany and Switzerland (Abad et al, 2018), there has not been a particular study on the very challenging region both geographically and geopolitically of the Balkan peninsula. Thus, the current research contributed and shed light upon the much less studied geographical region of the Balkans and contributed to the very limited literature that exists in terms of cross-border disaster management.…”

This abstract presents the methodological approach employed in a comprehensive study focusing on decision making in a collaborative manner in disaster management, with a specific emphasis on cross-border disasters in the Balkan region. Disasters, characterized by their sudden and profound impacts on human life, property, and the environment, necessitate a well-coordinated response. Emergency management, which encompasses preparation, response, and recovery phases, relies on the collective efforts of diverse agencies, organizations, and individuals to ensure an efficient response. The preparedness phase is particularly vital, entailing the formulation and execution of plans, policies, and procedures to effectively respond to disasters. Cross-border disasters, which transcend international borders and affect multiple countries and communities, present unique challenges due to the need for coordination and cooperation among various national governments and organizations. This research addresses the multifaceted aspects of disaster preparedness and cross-border disaster management within the intricate context of the Balkan region. The management of disasters demands a coordinated and proactive approach, especially when dealing with cross-border disasters. International cooperation and effective communication are essential for an effective response and minimizing the disaster’s impact on affected communities. Consequently, it is imperative to establish collaborative frameworks that enhance cross-border disaster risk reduction on various levels. To construct the components of a cross-border emergency preparedness framework, an extensive literature review was conducted, identifying ten essential pillars for disaster management. Subsequently, 129 recommendations formed the initial framework, which became the subject of a Delphi study. In this study, 104 experts from 12 participating Balkan countries aimed to reach a consensus on the framework’s elements. The study unveiled common aspects necessary for a cross-border preparedness framework tailored to the Balkans’ geographical characteristics. This framework was jointly endorsed by various emergency management experts with distinct functions and roles in disaster response. The process and results of this thesis underscore the critical need among Balkan countries to establish a tangible and sustained collaborative environment. This environment should foster a shared mindset and create a pathway towards resilient and sustainable cross-border emergency management cooperation and unity among Balkan countries.

“…In Canada, it is mandatory to provide notice or compensation in lieu of notice, along with opportunities for the employee to make improvements (Chireh et al, 2023). Germany and France have robust employee safeguards, characterised by stringent protocols and the possibility of labour authority endorsement (Abad et al, 2018). Japan prioritises valid justifications and counselling, while Australia enforces a process that is both fair and transparent (Bartram et al, 2019).…”

In the context of rapid changes and a hyperdynamic external environment, the world economy and politics create new challenges and threats that actualise research on the effectiveness of public administration in the context of economic security through the prism of various legal fields. The purpose of the study is to present the author's vision of a methodological approach that will allow visualising the process of public administration in the context of ensuring a high level of economic security and evaluating its effectiveness, considering the legal aspect of the issue. The methodology involves using modern methods that combine and interact to achieve the goal. These include both general theoretical methods and specific ones: IDEF3 and the integral evaluation method. The approach to assessing the level of effectiveness of public administration in the system of ensuring economic security is defined. The importance of political and legal indicators is emphasised. The results of calculating the value of the integral indicator are presented, and the corresponding conclusions are drawn. The author's vision of the modern model of public administration implementation in the system of ensuring economic security with an emphasis on the protection of human rights is presented. All the key Public administration of the economic security system....
