It investigates factors like supervisor support, organizational support, rewards, training, and job aids as a potential contributor towards high employee commitment levels and their retention in the current firm. The survey collected employee information from 1,851 responses to an employee engagement questionnaire, which employed five-point Likert scale responses. It was then confirmed through CFA and SEM for testing and verification of the results. The test showed that the hybrid workplace factors are significantly associated with employee commitment and retention; training, supervisor support, and organizational support were the significant contributor with a positive influence. The findings can be used by the firms to design hybrid systems inclusive of high engagement and low turnover rates.<\/p><p><strong>Keywords: <\/strong>IT Firms, SEM, CFA, Employee Commitment, and Retention, Hybrid Workplace.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/abpi.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/25V411101.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Download PDF<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/div>                <\/div>\n\n                <div class=\"htmega-toggle-button\">\n                    <a href=\"#\" class=\"togglebutton-0e7d20d normal_btn\">Preview Abstract<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-circle-down\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#\" class=\"togglebutton-0e7d20d opened_btn\">Close<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-circle-up\"><\/i><\/a>                <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n            <script>\n                jQuery(document).ready(function($) {\n                    'use strict';\n                    $(\".togglebutton-0e7d20d\").on('click', function(){\n                        $(\".htmega-toggle-content-0e7d20d\").slideToggle('slow');\n                        $(this).removeAttr(\"href\");\n                        $(this).parent().toggleClass(\"open\");\n                    });\n                });\n            <\/script>\n        \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ce16f3 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"8ce16f3\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fb86e38 exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fb86e38\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>2.\u00a0DECONSTRUCTING NATIONAL MEMORY: POSTCOLONIAL HYBRIDITY, PARTITION TRAUMA, AND THE POLITICS OF HISTORICAL REPRESENTATION IN SHASHI THAROOR&#8217;S <em>THE GREAT INDIAN NOVEL<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c251d4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7c251d4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adb489e elementor-widget__width-initial exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-htmega-toggle-addons\" data-id=\"adb489e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"htmega-toggle-addons.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t            <div class=\"htmega-toggle-area\" >\n                \n                <div class=\"htmega-toggle-content-adb489e\" style=\"display: none;\">\n                    <div class=\"htmega_custom_content\"><p><em>Authors:\u00a0Dr. DIKSHA SHARMA<\/em><\/p><p><strong>Abstract<\/strong><\/p><p><em>The Great Indian Novel<\/em>, Shashi Tharoor\u2019s first fictional endeavour deserves to be termed as an \u2018eminently readable\u2019 classic, powerfully and wisely narrating a human history with extraordinary profundities.

This study aims to address this gap by synthesizing fragmented pre-ISSB evidence to develop a predictive conceptual framework that guides the transition from voluntary to mandatory disclosure. <strong>Design\/methodology\/approach<\/strong> - A systematic literature review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA protocol. The TCCM framework was utilised to organise the analysis, thereby ensuring methodological rigor and enabling the integration of theoretical, contextual, and methodological insights. <strong>Findings-<\/strong> The review uncovers conceptual and empirical patterns from previous studies and shows how they shape the emerging IFRS S1 and S2 framework. This framework emphasises key drivers, challenges, and opportunities as the world moves toward mandatory sustainability reporting. <strong>Implications-<\/strong> The framework enhances theoretical understanding by consolidating disparate pre-ISSB research into a unified basis for IFRS S1 and S2. It provides practical guidance to preparers, auditors, and investors regarding the complexities involved in transitioning to obligatory sustainability reporting. For policymakers and regulators, it underscores the importance of establishing robust enforcement and assurance mechanisms to ensure credible global implementation. <strong>Originality-<\/strong> This paper's unique contribution is systematically applying the TCCM framework to synthesize integrative conceptual frameworks connecting fragmented pre-ISSB evidence with IFRS S1 and S2 requirements. It offers a foundational basis for future research and serves as a guiding framework for regulators, practitioners, and scholars involved with the new standards.<\/p><p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> ESG materiality; Sustainability-Related Financial Disclosures (SRFD); IFRS S1 and IFRS S2; Integrated Reporting.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/abpi.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/25V411104.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Download PDF<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/div>                <\/div>\n\n                <div class=\"htmega-toggle-button\">\n                    <a href=\"#\" class=\"togglebutton-7952b51 normal_btn\">Preview Abstract<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-circle-down\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#\" class=\"togglebutton-7952b51 opened_btn\">Close<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-chevron-circle-up\"><\/i><\/a>                <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n            <script>\n                jQuery(document).ready(function($) {\n                    'use strict';\n                    $(\".togglebutton-7952b51\").on('click', function(){\n                        $(\".htmega-toggle-content-7952b51\").slideToggle('slow');\n                        $(this).removeAttr(\"href\");\n                        $(this).parent().toggleClass(\"open\");\n                    });\n                });\n            <\/script>\n        \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7729c5a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7729c5a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66744bb exad-sticky-section-no exad-glass-effect-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"66744bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>5.

As fintech rapidly reshapes the marketplace, this study seeks to identify the critical factors influencing the adoption of digital payment systems (DPS) in e-commerce and its impact on Financial Inclusion. <strong>Design\/Methodology:<\/strong> This study employs a covariance based structural equation model (SEM) to analyse the impact of e-commerce Digital Payment Adoption (DPA) on Financial Inclusion. Additionally, theoretical frameworks such as the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2) were used to evaluate the antecedents influencing digital payment adoption. <strong>Findings:<\/strong> Accessibility, Trust and Affordability significantly influenced user\u2019s intention towards e commerce digital payment. The proposed study also revealed that e-commerce digital payment adaption has a significant positive impact on financial inclusion. <strong>Practical Implications:<\/strong> The results of this research can provide e-commerce platforms, policymakers, and financial institutions with a roadmap toward building strategies that fosters the use of e-commerce and enhances financial inclusion.
