“…These factors have been found to have a significant influence in the expatriate management area, and when disregarded, they tend to lead to major shortcomings in global mobility. As established in previous studies, the factors may reduce job morale, lower job commitment, increase the intentions to quit, and sometimes might lead to psychological challenges among the expatriates (Bednarova, Chovancova, Pacana, & Ulewicz, ), therefore leading to immature repatriation that is found to be detrimental to firm growth in terms of both cost and time management. However, in recent times, firms have attempted to reduce the risks of immature repatriation by selecting and recruiting expatriates deemed to possess the right personal traits and providing them special training that is hoped to assist them in adapting in the new environment (McNulty & Brewster, ).…”

The study aims to investigate the effect of identify and status in the field of global mobility and expatriate management. It conceptualizes perceived prejudice towards low‐status expatriates (LSE) though the social identity theory (SIT) lens and examines the effect it has on two state self‐esteem domains, that is, performance self‐esteem and social self‐esteem. The study also highlights that the moderation roles education level and age of expatriates play towards their adaptability. In doing so, it seeks to expand the expatriate management domain by investigating the negative side associated with expatriation. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to analyze responses from 373 LSE working in China. The results provide evidence indicating the significance attached to status and identity, thus indicating that perceived prejudice significantly affects expatriate's self‐esteem negatively and that age and education level mitigate these effects by moderating the relationship. Age and education level attained by the expatriates are found to be significant moderators in this relationship. The study therefore proposes the use of SIT as a powerful theoretical lens for understanding LSE.

“…Internationalization in such markets created a chance for a given organization for rapid growth. Trade liberalization and reduction of barriers regarding the flow of goods and financial flows contributed to this phenomenon (Maleszyk, 2009;Braga et al 2017;Bednarova et al 2017;Pacana et al 2017). Since the 1990s, the search for internationalization opportunities for an organization is considered necessary and it is characteristic for management in the case of a proactive orientation of an enterprise.…”

“…From the first point of view, the purpose of safety management is to make sure that the amount of accidents and incidents is kept as low as possible or as low as is reasonably practicable. From a second perspective, the purpose of safety management is to ensure that as much as possible goes right, in the sense that everyday work achieves its objectives [6,26,30].…”

The article aims to support the Safety Management System’s implementation in the Visegrad Four (V4) countries by introducing supporting documentation at the national level or national legislation. The research subjects are the V4 countries (Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia), where 39 air carriers operate. Safety management in today’s world is already necessary, yet introducing a Safety Management System (SMS) is voluntary in many areas, including some transport modes. In air transport, it is mandatory, and the general principles and guidelines of this system are set out in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), which has issued several regulations and recommendations. The lists of ICAO standards and essential translations can be considered a minimum, which is also approached by different authorities. The article points out the primary differences in SMS in individual V4 countries and presents which country provides the strongest support in implementing this system.
