“…Employment in that sector as a share of total employment stood at 31.2% in 2005 and is estimated at 38% in 2010. This is not surprising given that the percentage of tourism and travel in GDP stood at 31.2% in 2005 and is estimated at 37.6% in 2010 [91]. This is not unexpected in a country that is known for its diverse atmosphere, earliest history, ancient Roman ruins, preserved castles, and notable mosques and churches, as well as its stunning beaches in the Mediterranean Sea and rugged ski resorts.…”

We investigate the relation between financial development, energy consumption, and economic growth in the economy of Lebanon over the period 2000M 2 -2010M 12 . Our findings confirm the existence of cointegration among the variables. The results indicate that financial development and energy consumption contribute to economic growth in Lebanon. The impact of energy consumption on economic growth is positive showing the significance of energy as a main stimulant of economic growth. Financial development is also found to play a vital role in enhancing economic growth. Financial development and economic growth also result in further increase in energy consumption. We offer some policy implications specific to Lebanon considering the recent discovery of large oil and gas reserves in the country and the historical importance of its banking sector which remains a center of Lebanon's serviceoriented economy.

“…Subsequently, Cyprus' dependence on tourism for its development and economic well-being requires herculean efforts in order to maintain a delicate balance between development and degradation of the tourism product. Aligned with this, is the need for effective and efficient utilization, and management of the industry's human resources (Karatepe & Kilic, 2007;Lanquar, 2011).…”

h i g h l i g h t sWe investigate job satisfaction, involvement, organizational commitment and turnover intentions. Affective and normative organizational commitment, have positive associations with job satisfaction. Affective organizational commitment and satisfaction have negative associations with turnover. A negative association between intrinsic job satisfaction and turnover intention cannot be supported. a r t i c l e i n f o t r a c tThe study of attitudes at work seeks to enhance organizational knowledge and capabilities in developing an 'ideal' working environment that delivers exceptional customer service. The current study investigates the causal relationships of job involvement, organizational commitment (normative and affective), and job satisfaction (intrinsic and extrinsic), with the intention of hospitality employees in Cyprus to either remain at or leave their job. Utilizing structural equation modeling, positive associations were found between job involvement, affective and normative commitment, and intrinsic job satisfaction. Positive associations between affective and normative organizational commitment, and intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction were also found. In addition, negative associations between affective organizational commitment, extrinsic job satisfaction and turnover intention were revealed. However, a negative association between intrinsic job satisfaction and turnover intention was not supported. The implications of these results for future research are also discussed.
