Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) in India are the subjects of this study, which explores the complex relationships between emotional labor (EL) and unstable work environments and how these relationships affect organizational commitment (OC). The study also looked at how organizational virtuousness (OV) and perceived social value mediated the relationship between precarious work (PW), EL, and OC. This study included a total sample size of N = 467 ASHA personnel from a variety of healthcare settings.

Workplace Ostracism is known to be a physically and emotionally painful experience. Even if it has a temporary and minor impact, it strongly predicts employee turnover intentions. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to examine the moderating effects of perceptions of Organizational Virtuousness (OV) and Authentic Leadership (AL) in explaining the relationship between Workplace Ostracism (WO) and employees' Turnover Intentions (TI).

Guar gum blended soil (GGBS) offers potentially advantageous engineering characteristics of hydraulic conductivity and strength for a soil to be used as a liner material. Characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope were used to examine the mineral composition, functional groups and morphological changes in the unblended soil (UBS) and GGBS. These characterization approaches are used to understand adsorption-associated mechanisms of Pb(II) removal.

A Li-rich layered oxide (LLO) cathode with morphology-dependent electrochemical performance with the composition LiMnNiCoO in three different microstructural forms, namely, randomly shaped particles, platelets, and nanofibers, is synthesized through the solid-state reaction (SSR-LLO), hydrothermal method (HT-LLO), and electrospinning process (ES-LLO), respectively. Even though the cathodes possess different morphologies, structurally they are identical. The elemental dispersion studies using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping in scanning transmission electron microscopy show uniform distribution of elements.
