This study investigated the impact of women owned Micro and Small Enterprises income on the well-being of women-led households in Juja Sub-County, Kiambu County. The study acknowledged that Juja sub-county faced challenges in attaining a positive well-being for women-led households. The study employed a cross-section study design since it is proper for explaining data collected during a particular time.The target population was 25,959 women-owned MSEs from Juja sub-county wards (Murera, Theta, Juja, Weiteithie, and Kalimoni). The study used stratified random sampling with a sample size of 384 households. Data collection was conducted using close-ended questionnaires. After cleaning, data was entered in the SPSS and analyzed using descriptive statistics like counts, percentages, and frequencies. The multi-regression analysis was utilized in examining the impact of several independent variables on the dependent variable. Spearman's correlation coefficient was employed to measure the strength of this relationship. Data was presented using tables. The study concluded that income amount, dependability and continuity among the women owning MSE's had a positive impact on their well-being. The study recommended that both the county and national governments needs to train women on best business management practices to help improve their financial outcomes (income and profits).

Many optimization algorithms have been proposed to solve hybrid flowshop scheduling problem (HFSP). However, with the development of industry and society, labor right and labor safety have become important problem to consider in production scheduling. So the green HFSP considering makespan, noise and dust pollution becomes an urgent problem to be solved. In this paper, the rider optimization algorithm (ROA) is modified into the multi-objective rider optimization algorithm (MOROA) using Pareto archive and neighborhood sorting techniques. The Pareto archive and neighborhood sorting technology make the Pareto optimal solution set of MOROA have higher coverage and more solutions. Then MOROA is discretized into discrete MOROA (DMOROA) to solve the HFSP considering makespan, noise and dust pollution. DMOROA is tested on 10, 30 and 50 jobs HFSP considering makespan, noise and dust pollution. The test results are compared with two multi-objective algorithms to verify the performance of DMOROA. And the test results verify that the DMOROA is superior to the comparison algorithms in search accuracy, number of non-dominated solutions, diversity of solution set and stability. Therefore, DMOROA is effective in solving multi-objective HFSP considering makespan, noise and dust pollution. INDEX TERMS Hybrid flowshop scheduling problem, multi-objective meta-heuristic algorithm, rider optimization algorithm, labor right.

Segmenting and equalizing narratives in the ILO's standard‐setting practice

In shaping the employment relationship internationally, the ILO initially reproduced the Western normative narrative of the standard employment relationship (SER). When the global South and women gained a stronger voice within the ILO, a contrasting egalitarian narrative emerged, challenging the SER hegemony and creating a layering of narratives. Combining historical institutionalism and structuration theory, the authors follow the development of these narratives and consider how the resultant legal and normative conflicts between them can be explained by focusing on the composition of ILO membership and the representation of women in International Labour Conferences over time. The authors draw a number of legal‐political conclusions from their findings.
