Title: DETERMİNANTS OF EMPLOYMENT İN TURKEY: AN ARDL ANALYSİS OF COMMERCİAL AND FİNANCİAL DYNAMİCS
Abstract: Bu çalışma, Türkiye'de istihdamın belirleyicilerini ticari ve finansal dinamiklere odaklanarak analiz etmektedir. İstihdam, ekonomik büyüme ve sosyal refahın temel bir göstergesidir. 1990-2024 yılları arasındaki yıllık veriler kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada ihracatın (LNEX, ihracat hacminin doğal logaritması) ve yurt içi kredinin (LNKREDİ, toplam yurt içi kredinin doğal logaritması) istihdamı (LNİSTİHDAM, toplam istihdamın doğal logaritması) nasıl etkilediği incelenmektedir. ARDL (Otoregresif Dağıtılmış Gecikmeli) modeli hem kısa hem de uzun vadeli ilişkileri yakalamaktadır. Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) ve Phillips-Perron (PP) birim kök testlerinden elde edilen sonuçlar, diğer durağanlık testleriyle birlikte, değişkenlerin farklı düzeylerde durağan olduğunu göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla, ARDL yaklaşımı uygundur. F-Sınırları testi, uzun vadeli bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin varlığını doğrulamaktadır. Uzun vadeli tahminler, ihracatın istihdam üzerinde güçlü ve pozitif bir etkisi olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Artan kredi hacmi de istihdamı önemli ölçüde desteklemektedir. Hata düzeltme katsayısı -0,501 olup, negatif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır. Bu, kısa vadeli dengesizliklerin yaklaşık yarısının tek bir dönem içinde düzeltildiği anlamına gelir. Bulgular, Türkiye'de ticaret açıklığı ve finansal derinleşmenin üretim kapasitesini ve istihdamı iyileştirdiğini göstermektedir. İstihdamı sürdürmek için ihracatı, finansal erişilebilirliği ve reel sektöre daha iyi kredi akışını teşvik eden politikalar sürdürülmelidir.

Title: AN ASSESSMENT OF PERCEIVED POVERTY AMONG INDIVIDUALS RECEIVING PUBLIC CASH ASSISTANCE IN TERMS OF DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
Abstract: This study examines the perception of poverty among individuals receiving public cash assistance in relation to demographic variables. Based on data collected from 650 beneficiaries of state-supported cash aid programs in Ağrı through face-to-face surveys using the Poverty Perception Scale, which includes absolute, relative, and human poverty dimensions, the analysis was conducted using nonparametric tests such as the Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests. The results indicate no statistically significant differences in poverty perception by gender, age, marital status, employment status, or type of assistance; however, significant differences were found across education and income levels, with higher education and income associated with increased poverty perception scores. Overall, the findings suggest that public cash transfers alone are insufficient to fully alleviate perceptions of poverty and should be supported by education, employment, and social integration policies. As one of the few empirical studies assessing the impact of public assistance on poverty perception, this research contributes theoretically and practically by highlighting the necessity of incorporating demographic diversity into social policy design.

Title: EVALUATION OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT AND PARTICIPATIVE LEADERSHIP IN TERMS OF DEMOGRAPHIC VARIABLES: A CASE STUDY OF HEALTHCARE WORKERS
Abstract: In organizations, leaders set goals, influence those they lead to achieve them, motivate them, develop their knowledge, skills, and competencies, and support them. Leaders, through this position within organizations, directly impact the success of organizations. Therefore, leaders are expected to be qualified to lead organizations to success. Participative leaders are arguably effective in organizations. Participative leaders demonstrate a democratic management approach and share their management authority with their employees. In organizations led by participative leaders, employees are also included in the decision-making process. This is expected to increase employee motivation, gain self-confidence and empowerment, and work with higher performance toward the goals of the organization. Emotional intelligence is a sought-after trait in today's leaders, and participative leaders are expected to possess high emotional intelligence. It can be said that leaders with high emotional intelligence are leaders who are aware of their own potential, strengths, and weaknesses, as well as those they lead, and who empathize with them. Healthcare institutions provide crucial services for all of humanity. To ensure the sustainable delivery of these critical services, it is crucial that healthcare organizations are led by highly emotionally intelligent, participative leaders. This interaction between emotional intelligence and participative leadership is anticipated to support organizational commitment. The findings of this study are expected to increase the emotional intelligence and organizational commitment levels of healthcare workers and positively contribute to the quality of healthcare services. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the emotional intelligence perceptions and participative leadership perceptions of healthcare workers in Balıkesir province, to reveal the effects of this relationship on healthcare workers' organizational commitment, and to determine whether healthcare workers' emotional intelligence, organizational commitment, and participative leadership perceptions differ according to the demographic characteristics of the participants. The study was conducted using a relational screening model and quantitative research design. Data were collected from 420 healthcare workers performing various duties in different healthcare institutions in Balıkesir province between October 2024 and April 2025. Data were collected using a personal information form and a survey form containing emotional intelligence, organizational commitment, and participative leadership scales. SPSS program was used to analyze the data obtained in the study. The study found that healthcare workers attach importance to emotional intelligence, organizational commitment, and participative leadership. It was concluded that healthcare workers' emotional intelligence, organizational commitment, and participative leadership perception levels did not differ by gender, age, or professional experience, but did differ by education level, position in the institution, and role. Strong linear relationships exist between healthcare workers' perceptions of participative leadership, emotional intelligence levels, and organizational commitment. When one-to-one interactions were examined, it was determined that healthcare workers' perceptions of participative leadership strongly and linearly influenced their organizational commitment, and healthcare workers' emotional intelligence levels strongly and linearly influenced their organizational commitment. When the effects of healthcare workers' perceptions of participative leadership and their emotional intelligence levels on their organizational commitment were measured together, it was concluded that there was a strong interaction between healthcare workers' perceptions of participative leadership and their emotional intelligence levels. Healthcare workers' organizational commitment was directly and strongly determined by their emotional intelligence levels. While healthcare workers' perceptions of participative leadership did not have a significant direct effect on organizational commitment, it did have a direct and linear effect on organizational commitment due to its strong interaction with emotional intelligence.

Title: JOB STRESS AND BURNOUT AMONG SOCIAL SERVICE WORKERS:  THEORETICAL APPROACH
Abstract: Social services constitute both a practice-oriented profession and an academic discipline aimed at facilitating human change, development, empowerment, and liberation. It is fundamentally based on concepts such as human rights, social justice, and respect for diversity. The field offers a wide range of employment opportunities, including institutions affiliated with the Ministry of Justice (such as prisons), nursing homes under the Ministry of Family and Social Policies, and private sector organizations. Social services require professionals to work under various adverse (disadvantaged) conditions and involve significant physical effort, making it an inherently demanding field. Consequently, these challenges lead to job stress and burnout. Such stress and burnout become factors that negatively impact employees' professional competence, productivity, and quality of life. Low wages, demanding and care-intensive responsibilities, high workload, and long working hours contribute to increased stress and burnout. Furthermore, the workforce and performance of employees decline in parallel with these negative conditions. This study examines the adverse conditions encountered in the field of social services, incorporating relevant concepts and literature-based assessments of these challenges. Within the framework of burnout theories and studies on stress management, it explores the sources of job stress in the social service profession, the individual and institutional impacts of burnout, and coping strategies. Ultimately, this study aims to contribute to the academic literature and serve as a guide for both professionals and administrators in the field of social services.

Title: THE IMPACT OF CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY ON MARKETING PERFORMANCE: THE REFLECTION OF ESG SCORES ON BRAND VALUE AND PROFITABILITY
Abstract: This study investigates how Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance influences firms’ marketing and financial outcomes. A balanced panel dataset of 1,000 firms drawn from seven geographic regions and nine sectors for the period 2015–2025 (11,000 firm-year observations) is employed. The dataset contains financial indicators profit margin (ProfitMargin) and market growth rate (GrowthRate) together with the composite ESG score and its environmental, social, and governance sub-dimensions. After descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations and fixed-effects panel regressions are estimated. Results show that the overall ESG score exerts no statistically significant direct effect on either profit margin or market growth rate (p > 0.10). By contrast, carbon emissions, water usage, and energy consumption introduced as environmental cost controls display significant negative coefficients on market growth at the 10 percent level. These findings indicate that investors react more strongly to tangible environmental performance metrics than to abstract ESG ratings. Accordingly, firms are advised to frame their sustainability strategies around long-term value creation rather than short-term profit goals.

Title: REFLECTIONS OF FINANCIAL DIGITALIZATION ON FOREIGN TRADE AND THE ENVIRONMENT: A CASE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
Abstract: With the acceleration of digitalization particularly alongside advances in information Technologies the migration of a wide range of activities to digital environments has become inevitable. Traditional shopping habits are increasingly giving way to online platforms where innovative approaches continually emerge. Thanks to the diffusion of digital technologies, consumers gain the ability to quickly compare and select products suited to their needs from a broad set of options. This transformation compels national and international firms to operate under more competitive conditions. Consequently, the implications of digitalization for the economy and trade should be regarded as strategically important. Extraordinary circumstances such as global pandemics further amplify firms’ need to leverage digital technologies to reach customers. In parallel with advances in financial technologies, digitalization is driving rapid and profound transformation in the financial sector; this change affects not only modes of service delivery but also the structural dynamics of international trade. Novel business models enabled by financial digitalization stand out as a decisive driving force in the transformation of traditional trade structures. The spread of digital payment systems and mobile banking can increase the speed and efficiency of commercial transactions, thereby influencing export and import performance. At the same time, aligning financial digitalization with environmental sustainability objectives and enabling a transition to lower‑carbon financial architectures through digital solutions should be expected.On the other hand, the expansion of e‑commerce volumes can exacerbate environmental pollution stemming from energy use and carbon emissions. The infrastructural components of digitalization generate high energy demand; data centers, cloud computing infrastructures, and continuously operating servers consume substantial amounts of electricity. Especially in developing countries, energy‑intensive implementations of digitalization can widen the ecological footprint and diminish the visibility of potential environmental benefits. As e‑commerce becomes more widespread, increased logistics activity can also raise transport‑related carbon emissions.The environmental impacts of financial digitalization exhibit a complex pattern; the direction of these impacts varies depending on the quality of digital infrastructure, the composition of energy sources used, and whether the regulatory framework is oriented toward sustainability.

Title: A New Mixed-Integer Linear Programming Model for Omnichannel Inventory Optimization with an Empirical Application
Abstract: The rapid acceleration of digitalization, the widespread adoption of mobile technology, and shifting consumer purchasing patterns have elevated the strategic importance of omnichannel frameworks within retail supply chain networks. The convergence of physical stores, online platforms, mobile applications, and marketplaces has resulted in heightened customer expectations for smooth interactions across all touchpoints. Inventory allocation, order fulfillment, inter-channel transfers, and delivery decisions are then expressed as a multidimensional planning problem. In the cosmetics industry, effective decision-making relies on a carefully planned inventory placement strategy that incorporates multiple distribution channels, directing customer demand to the most suitable channel and controlling goods movement quantities between channels to achieve efficient operations and the highest possible profitability. This study proposes a novel mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model designed to maximize the total profit within an omnichannel distribution network. The model combines sales revenue, inventory costs, transportation and transfer expenses, and initial procurement costs to guide product distribution across channels. By integrating these elements, it provides a unified framework for determining shipments between channels and setting initial stock levels. The model was evaluated on a genuine cosmetics dataset via FICO Xpress, with its solution quality, computational efficiency, and scenario-based sensitivity assessed across diverse product, channel, and time configurations. The study’s findings indicate that the proposed model not only bridges the existing gap in multi-channel decision-making research but also provides a practical decision-support tool for managing multi-channel logistics networks. Furthermore, the model has strong potential to be enhanced through heuristic or metaheuristic extensions, enabling even higher performance for large-scale problem instances.

Title: AN ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ON SUSTAINABILITY REPORTS
Abstract: In recent years, escalating environmental crises, social inequalities, and economic uncertainties have clearly demonstrated the inadequacy of traditional corporate approaches that focus solely on financial performance. These developments have necessitated that companies consider not only their economic outcomes but also their environmental and social responsibilities in order to create long-term value. In this context, sustainability has emerged as a holistic management paradigm that reflects an organization's capacity to generate multi-dimensional value. Today, stakeholders demand more than just profitability; they also expect companies to demonstrate transparency and accountability regarding environmental impact reduction, social justice, and adherence to ethical principles. In response to these growing expectations, corporate governance mechanisms-such as board structure, audit committees, independent directors and ownership concentration-play a central role in shaping, implementing and disclosing firms' sustainability strategies. This study aims to examine the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on sustainability disclosures by adopting both a theoretical and practical perspective. Understanding the relationship between governance structures and sustainability reporting is of critical importance in enhancing corporate transparency and accountability.

Title: EVALUATION OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT POLICIES IN THE EU COUNTRIES IN THE PERIOD  2000-2023
Abstract: This study evaluates the sustainable development policies of the 27 member states of the European Union (EU) for the period 2000–2023. In this context, indicators obtained from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Eurostat databases were used to analyze the progress of EU countries toward achieving sustainable development goals. The aim of the study is to examine sustainable development within a comprehensive framework encompassing its social, economic, and environmental dimensions and to reveal the performance differences of EU countries in these areas. The social dimension is represented by the Human Development Index (HDI) and the Gender Inequality Index (GII); the economic dimension by gross domestic product (GDP) growth rates and energy efficiency; and the environmental dimension by greenhouse gas emissions per capita and environmental tax revenues. The findings indicate that EU countries have generally made significant progress toward sustainable development goals, although there are notable regional disparities within the Union. Social indicators reveal high levels of human development along with a decreasing trend in gender inequality, while economic indicators show that growth has become integrated with environmental and social aspects. From an environmental perspective, greenhouse gas emissions have generally declined, yet national differences in environmental tax revenues persist. In conclusion, the EU is identified as a leading global actor in sustainable development; however, strengthening policy coherence remains critically important for achieving a more balanced and inclusive sustainability vision across the Union.
