The emergence of coworker support has become a hot topic of debate in academic circles because it has an impact on job satisfaction, performance improvement, and reduces employee desire to resign. This research uses systematic literature review with the aim of providing an overview of the development of the topic through the latest data and providing suggestions for future research development. The literature taken over the last ten years since 2013 was processed using the Watase UAKE application to obtain article extraction in the form of article information, the theory underlying the article, to future research opportunities. The results show that 2022 is the year with the most relevant articles, the International Journal of Hospitality Management as the most cited or cited journal, and China as the country with the most publications. Of the 27 articles extracted, resource conservation theory is the theory most widely used as a basis for research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Employees are very important to any organization. Their expedient contribution towards the organizations' success is significant. Hence, training these important assets effectively becomes necessary to enhance their performance especially in the banking industry. The Nigerian banking industry faces a number of challenges in relation to employee development such as inability to spend budgetary provision for training when there is lull in business and poor management support of training. This study thus investigated the effects of management support of training on employee performance in Nigerian banking industry. The survey research design was used. The population of the study comprised of 121,445 employees of the 22commercial banks in the Nigerian banking industry from which a sample of 399 employees were selected using stratified sampling technique and 365 representing 92% per cent were retrieved. A questionnaire titled "Training on employee performance Questionnaire (T-EPQ)" was used to collect data. Data elicited were analysed using frequencies, percentages and regression analysis at 0.05 significant levels. The findings revealed that management support of training significantly affect employee performance (P (.000)-.05). The study concluded that training in the Nigerian Banking Industry affects employee performance. This study therefore recommends that employees should be trained adequately to meet their needs, values and expectations, most importantly to enhance employees performance. More so, management of banks should ensure maximum support of training to facilitate qualitative service delivery. Finally, CBN should adopt and implement policies enforcing management of Nigerian banking industry to ensure adequate training budget that will facilitate qualitative training programmes as innovative for improving employee performance in today's dynamic banking environment.

The aim of this work is to show the benefits of the internalization of quality standards. Based on interviews in the tourism industry and a quantitative study, the results show that internalization of quality standards has positive effects on performance. The commitment to implement quality standard requirements may lead tourism organizations to improve management systems because they apply the quality requirement in a more advanced way. This means that companies that believe in quality philosophy and apply it in their daily practices can improve their results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In multi-product, multi-component periodic review assemble-to-order systems, the component allocation policy has substantial impact on performance. In this paper, the impact of two classes of non-first-come-first-served allocation rules (non-FCFS) are evaluated; i.e., the last-come-first-served-within-one-period, and the product-based-priority-within-time-windows approach. The demand fulfillment rates for these rules are expressed analytically, which are then used to formulate base stock level optimization problems as chance-constrained programs. Moreover, three mathematical programs are used as benchmarks to test the non-FCFS rules. They maximize both the average cycle service level and the aggregate fill-rate, and separately minimize the operational cost per period under the FCFS rule. We show that these simple non-FCFS rules can significantly improve service measures and often outperform the benchmarks, though operational costs increase moderately. Importantly, the value of these rules is greatest when the customer service is used as a point of differentiation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
