Title | : | FDI in Multi Brand Retail Trading – Why Not? |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Dr. Rodney D'Silva || Mr. Edwin Barreto |
Abstract: The recent widespread opposition to foreign direct investment (FDI) in multi-brand retail trading (MBRT) has hogged the news headlines and is still being hotly debated. The opposition to FDI in MBRT is based on apprehensions as to the possible impacts on the primary stakeholders such as small farmers or suppliers, small retail traders and consumers - all politically important vote banks, who have their own vested interests in the status quo. The putting on hold of FDI in MBRT is compelled by several political allies and opposition parties, who fear the possibility of monopoly by foreign entrants over both farmers and consumers. The primary fears being- following of predatory pricing strategies by the new entrants, manipulation of prices for self benefit, fall in income levels, reduction in employment opportunities and the gradual destruction of the highly un-organised indigenous retail segment.

Title | : | Scope of Work Life Balance (Wlb) Stimulus on Productivity among School Teachers a Case Study With Reference To the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Ms. Monika Soni |
Abstract: Schools as social institutions have been under intense criticism, of late, in India. Teachers are expected to fill many roles in their daily tasks. In the process of balancing these many roles, their productivity at the work place may be affected. Moreover, recent trends in education system have enforced comprehensive continuous evaluation of pupils that has led to perceived work load increase among school teachers. To combat this issue successfully, the most important factor is to investigate the relationship between productivity of school teachers and their work-life balance. This paper focuses on the issue of probable influence of Work Life Balance on productivity of school teachers. A convenient random sample of 72 teachers working in, both public and private schools,in the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli was chosen in the interest of time and resources for the data to understand the relationship between variables. In the first step, the relationship among Perceived Workload Increase (PWL), Time Management (TM) and School Teachers'Productivity (STP) is examined. Later, the factor of Work Life Balance (WLB) was added to examine its moderating effect to the model. The results of Pearson's Correlation and Linear and Multiple regressions confirm that the Perceived Workload Increase (PWL) is found to be perilous for School Teachers'Productivity (STP). Provisions of Work Life Balance (WLB)opportunities found to be helpful in moderating the situation.
Keywords: School Teachers' Productivity (STP), Work Life Balance (WLB), Time Management (TM), Perceived Work Load Increase (PWL)
