“…Decision-making methodologies aim at transforming judgments and opinions into quantitative terms, in order to identify the best performing alternatives and/or most relevant criteria (Goyal et al, 2021;Kaymaz et al, 2022). In the present study, AHP was used to compare different criteria for sustainability in the food sector, and specifically pasta production.…”

The sustainable transition, which requires a combination of natural and human resources to foster the development and protection of ecosystems, is a challenge of civil society. New approaches may be proposed to support enterprises in identifying the appropriate strategic criteria for their sustainability initiatives, which are eventually documented in corporate sustainability reports. The present paper focuses on the food industry, particularly with regard to pasta production.The analytic hierarchy process method was used to assign relevance to sustainability criteria, according to the judgment of 10 academic experts. The initial criteria were selected from the sustainability reports of a virtuous and Italian pasta producer, La Molisana S.p.A., and divided into four categories: (1) people and community, (2) innovation and new product development, (3) commitment to the environment and (4) local supply chain and traceability. Promotion of social and economic development in the local community emerged as the most relevant criterion, followed by business development and promotion of talent. The people and community category was deemed most strategic for sustainability, while social and economic dimensions were given less relevance. Stakeholder engagement was proposed as an order winner for sustainable strategies.The present work has relevant methodological implications, as it shows that the analytic hierarchy process, applied in conjunction with a sustainability materiality matrix, may provide new and useful information for strategy and communication. In terms of operational implications, an enterprise’s historical connection to an area may attract global recognition and increase brand value through higher raw material quality, the harmonisation of human and natural resources, and synergy with the tourism industry.

“…The SEM model allows explaining each of the dimensions of the brand orientation construct and its relationship with happiness management in the context of small and medium enterprises. In line with the objectives of GDS 12, we cannot forget to mention that many recent studies highlight the significant number of companies implementing management models that ensure sustainable consumption and production at a global level (Goyal et al, 2021;Yu et al, 2021). These executive actions are in line with the principles of the circular economy, which now constitute a substantial range of opportunities for companies to cultivate sustainable and lasting competitive advantages over time (Camilleri, 2020;Camana et al, 2021).…”

The overarching call to action represented by the sustainable development goals (SDGs) calls for new sustainable production and management models. Likewise, in periods of crisis, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, companies are forced to develop competitive and sustainable development strategies to increase their brand value and achieve a good market position. Therefore, this work’s main objective is to design a structural equation modelling (SEM) to analyse the main critical dimensions of brand orientation to influence happiness in responsible and sustainable entities. For this purpose, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out based on primary data from a survey of a representative sample of 216 managers of small- and medium-sized enterprises in Andalusia (Spain) in the construction, industry and services sectors. The model results reveal significant dimensions of brand orientation and positively direct influence on happiness management. One of the significant managerial implications of this work is that the model allows for more responsible and sustainable management of entities by considering brand orientation about happiness.

“…Shaw et al (2012) studied supplier selection using fuzzy AHP and fuzzy multiobjective linear programming for developing low-carbon supply chains. Goyal et al (2021) applied fuzzy-AHP MCDM methodology to identify the relative importance of various barriers in adopting sustainable production and consumption (SPC) initiatives. Çalık (2021) developed a new group decision-making approach based on Industry 4.0 components for selecting the best green supplier by integrating AHP and TOPSIS methods under the fuzzy environment.…”

In the context of the COVID-19 epidemic, the turnover intention rate is increasing day by day. The objective of this study is to identify the main factors influencing turnover intention in the Vietnam hospitality industry. The study utilizes the fuzzy AHP and fuzzy TOPSIS model to evaluate the dimensions of the hotel employee turnover intention model. The performance evaluation for employee turnover intention includes Work Itself, Supervision, Coworkers relationships, Salary and Benefit, Career Opportunities, Job Stress, Perceived Risk, and Job Insecurity. These dimensions generate a final evaluation for ranking priority among the employee turnover intention of the proposed model. The importance level of dimensions is evaluated by 17 experts, and decision-making is processed through the fuzzy concept and fuzzy environment. From the critical fuzzy AHP and fuzzy TOPSIS analysis results, the study shows that the most important dimensions of employee turnover intention in the hotel industry model are Salary and Benefit. Moreover, the results indicate that the least important dimensions are the Co-workers' Relationship, Supervision, and Career Opportunities. The second group dimensions that impact employee turnover in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic are Work Itself, Job Stress Perceived Risk, and Job Insecurity. Moreover, this study’s results show that three-star hotels have the highest value of turnover intention; the second is the Four and Five-star hotels, and the third is the Below three-star hotels. The results of the study will help businesses in the fields of hospitality have a more comprehensive view of human resource management activities. Especially, this study provides implications for hotel managers in understanding employee behavior and their turnover intention during the context of the COVID-19 epidemic based on the eight proposed dimensions.
