“…Waste sorting for recycling, emphasized by [38], aids in reducing waste by identifying and segregating types. Construction industry-generated waste, associated with raw material depletion, impacts the environment negatively [39]. Fabrice Berroir [40] introduces a waste hierarchy promoting reduction, reuse, recycling, and landfill disposal in that order.…”

The city of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are grappling with an escalating issue: a colossal volume of concrete waste within their landfills. This predicament stems from the rapid surge in infrastructure expansion over the past twenty years, which has led to a surge in construction and demolition activities. Regrettably, there is currently no effective sustainable strategy to curtail the influx of concrete waste into these landfills. The implications of such landfill accumulation extend beyond just environmental concerns, encompassing human health, resource depletion, and harm to ecosystems. In response, this study embarked on a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to contrast the existing landfilling and transportation practices for concrete waste with a proposed recycling approach. Conducted within the framework of ISO 14040:2006, the LCA was meticulously structured, with the EcoInvent 3.4 database and SimaPro 8.5.2.0 software employed to streamline its various phases and outcomes. The research did not stop at the environmental realm; it delved into the financial aspect, utilizing the Handbook Environmental Prices 2017 to determine the damage costs associated with each impact. The comparison, rooted in the Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA), demonstrated a stark contrast between the environmental ramifications of landfilling versus recycling and transportation. The findings underscored the profound environmental toll of concrete waste deposition in landfills compared to the recycling method and transport process. By unearthing the disparities in impact indicators and management techniques for concrete waste, this study paves the way for future investigations to pinpoint influential factors. It also suggests the potential for a forthcoming Life Cycle Cost Assessment (LCCA) to supplement this analysis, unraveling the financial benefits of various concrete waste management strategies, and transcending mere damage costs. In essence, this study significantly enriches the comprehension of damage cost modeling and offers LCA insights into concrete waste management, encompassing divergent approaches like landfilling, recycling, and transportation.

“…The Dubai tourism strategy of 2020 sees Dubai as one of the top tourist destinations, attracting up to 25 million visitors per year by 2025 (Yas et al , 2020). The Emirate has much to offer, from world-class and competitively priced shopping, entertainment, services, sightseeing, cultural experiences or just for relaxation, all designed to satisfy visitors of different age groups (Kim and Kang, 2020).…”

Purpose The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has affected businesses worldwide. Arguably, one of the most affected industries is the hospitality sector, where the world has seen a substantial drop in personal and professional travel owing to severe lockdowns, which has particularly harmed the hotel and tourism industries by lowering occupancy and profits. The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the emotional and mental well-being of hospitality workers in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative cross-sectional technique was used, with 517 respondents drawn from Dubai's major hotels. Findings Fear of the COVID-19 pandemic was found to be positively connected to employees' emotional weariness, which is then positively related to their intention to leave their organizations. Practical implications The paper gives suggestions to managers on how to best deal with their employees, especially the more competent ones, as they are more likely to leave during a pandemic. Originality/value Contrary to suggestions in the literature and our predictions, this paper found that self-efficacy positively moderated the relationship between fear of COVID and emotional exhaustion such that workers with high self-efficacy were more prone to emotional exhaustion as a result of their fear of COVID. Furthermore, the results of the research suggest that it is the more competent workers who are more likely to be affected, during a pandemic, and thus their loss is expected to cause greater loss to their organizations.
