The aim of this paper is to characterise the impacts of an ageing population on the social services and healthcare systems in the Czech Republic. These are the systems that will be most affected by the growing number of people of post-productive age. For social services, an estimate of the evolution of the number of beneficiaries of care allowance up to 2030 was drawn up on the basis of an analysis of the evolution in the number of beneficiaries of this social benefit by sex, age and degree of dependency in the years 2007 to 2016; for healthcare, an estimate of health insurance companies’ expected expenditure on healthcare was drawn up on the basis of an analysis of the evolution of spending on healthcare by health insurance companies, broken down by clients’ sex and age. The calculations clearly show that both these systems are unprepared for tackling the consequences of population ageing, so the search should begin now for new solutions that would help ensure that both social services and healthcare continue to be provided to clients to the existing standard in the coming period.","PeriodicalId":38027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Operations Management","volume":"1 6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89308413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this respect, the impact of Syrian refugees on Turkish labor market is one of the most important contemporary issues discussed in Turkey. This issue has both political and economic significance. Deriving from this point, the aim of this study is to research the empirical relationship between the Labor Market Indicator (LMI) and the growing number of Syrian Refugees in Turkey (RS) by using time series analysis. The data employs monthly data for the period from January 2012 to August 2017. Results of the ARDL bounds test suggest that the Labor Market Indicator and the number of Syrian Refugees are in a long-run relationship. The Gregory-Hansen cointegration test with a structural break confirms the robustness of the ARDL bounds test of cointegration. The Kalman filtering approach was designed to investigate the dynamic relationship between the Labor Market Indicators and the growing number of Syrian Refugees. The results show that the increase in the number of Syrian refugees negatively affects the Labor Market Indicator in Turkey, which implies that the inflow of Syrians has negative effects on labor market outcomes such as employment and unemployment in the country. These results also confirm the postulation of general labor migration theory, which holds that an influx of refugees negatively affects labor market outcomes in the harboring country.","PeriodicalId":38027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Operations Management","volume":"159 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87550895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, organisations that have implemented the Electronic Document and Records Management System (EDRMS are deemed to be better equipped to handle both internally and externally generated records. These organisations are said to operate at higher level in terms of efficiency and effectiveness than those that still rely on manual filing. However, despite the well documented benefits that come With the adoption of ICTs for records management, some departments within the public sector in Namibia, such as the Ministry of Home Affairs, Homeland and Security as well as the Office of the Prime Minister are still heavily reliant on manual filing of documents. It is against this background that this study explored factors hindering the adoption of EDRMS in the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM). The study adopted a qualitative research approach to collect, analyse, and interpret data. The data collecting instruments included open-ended questionnaires, face-to-face interviews and observation of the study respondents. Data was analysed using the Atlas.ti tool. The study found that insufficient training of staff on electronic records management, lack of user needs analysis and lack of user involvement before the introduction of the system all contributed to resistance of the EDRMS adoption in the OPM. The study recommends that the OPM must provide adequate training to its employees on electronic records management and on the EDRMS in particular. The OPM should also make provision for the adoption of a change management strategy plan in order to get user buy-in for the new electronic system to be embraced.","PeriodicalId":38027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Operations Management","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76216554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There does not exist any noteworthy attempt made by the researchers to integrate Lean Six Sigma methodology with the ISO 9001:2015 QMS. In this paper this research gap is explored and revealed by conducting literature review. Further, the requirements of Lean Six Sigma methodology are explored and a roadmap for implementation of Lean Six Sigma methodology through ISO 9001:2015 QMS has been contributed in this research paper.","PeriodicalId":38027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Operations Management","volume":"60 1","pages":"303-329"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88987870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
