Banking is one of the fastest-growing sectors because of its contribution to the economy, however, today employee retention is demurring for banks and they are striving to fulfil this challenge. It has been observed from the past few years that it is due to the lack of knowledge related to the proper implementation of HR practices in the commercial banks. The main purpose behind conducting the research is to understand the effect of compensation (C), working environment (WE), training and development (T&D), and performance appraisal (PA) on employee retention (ER). The study used convenience sampling with a sample size of 200 and data was collected from the employees of different commercial banks located in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The empirical results showed that WE, PA, and COM have a significant positive relationship with the ER whereas T&A has the insignificant one.

Leadership is one of important aspects in any form of activity that involves people. Leadership may make employees either stay or leave the organisation hence it becomes one of factors that influence employee retention. Organisations spend and invest a lot in their employees and this starts from recruitment and selection, training and development, compensation and other Human Resource Management functions. This entails that letting an employee leave your organisation is a costly decision one can ever make. Various studies done in Tanzania have been investigating employee retention by associating it with other factors such as salaries, working hours, training and development, working environment and promotion among others. This study examined the link between leadership and employee retention. The study used Akiba Commercial Bank (Buguruni Branch) and Tanzania Postal Bank (Morogoro Branch) as the study cases and data were collected using questionnaires. Linear regression analysis was employed to examine the relationship between the variables. It was found that there is significant linear relationship between leadership and employee retention in Tanzania commercial banks. The study recommends provision of training to bank managers and supervisors on leadership skills since managing and leading go hand in hand. It further reminds managers and supervisors to seek for feedback from their subordinates on how they perceive leadership styles used in respective banks and make improvements before the employees decide to leave.

The most valuable assets in every scientific community are the expert work force and the research results/data produced. The last decade has seen new experimental and computational techniques developing at an ever-faster pace, encouraging the production of ever-larger quantities of data in ever-shorter time spans. Concurrently the traditional scientific working environment has changed beyond recognition. Today scientists can use a wide spectrum of experimental, computational and analytical facilities, often widely distributed over the UK and Europe. In this environment new challenges are posed for the Management of Data every day, but are we ready to tackle them? Do we know exactly what the challenges are? Is the right technology available and is it applied where necessary?

Inventory management of deteriorating drugs has attracted considerable attention recently in hospitals. Drugs are a kind of special product. Two characteristics of some drugs are the shorter shelf life and high service level. This causes hospitals a great deal of difficulty in inventory management of perishable drugs. On one hand, hospitals should increase the drug inventory to achieve a higher service level. On the other hand, hospitals should decrease the drug inventory because of the short shelf life of drugs. An effective management of pharmaceuticals is required to ensure 100% product availability at the right time, at the right cost, in good conditions to the right customers. This requires a trade-off between shelf-life and service level. In addition, many uncontrollable factors can lead to random lead time of drugs. This paper focuses on deteriorating drugs with stochastic lead time. We have established a stochastic lead time inventory model for deteriorating drugs with fixed demand. The lead time obeyed a certain distribution function and shortages were allowed. This model also considered constraints on service level, stock space and drug shelf life. Through the analysis of the model, the shelf life of drugs and service level were weighted in different lead time distributions. Empirical analysis and sensitivity analysis were given to get reach important conclusions and enlightenment.
