TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the impact of cognitive intrusion on family life and vice versa, and conclude that people are impacted by cognitive intrusion due to technology's continuous influence in our day-to-day lives.
Abstract: This research paper aims to investigate the concept of technologically driven Cognitive Intrusion of Work (CIW) on family life and vice versa. Due to the current situation, people’s work-life balance is impacted by continuous usage of technology for work and personal purposes and is referred to as “technoference”. The primary motivation of this research is to establish the reliability and validity of the constructs, namely, work interference with personal life (WIPL); personal life interference with work (PLIW), and work personal life enhancement (WPLE) on work-life balance to study their link with work-life balance. To assess the unidimensionality of the scales, both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses along with scale reliability and validity were performed. The research methodology was a cross-sectional design, and respondents were 641 higher education teachers. The findings established a good relationship between the three constructs and work-life balance, indicating that technologically driven cognitive intrusion of work impacts personal life and vice versa, i.e., cognitive intrusion of personal life happens at work impacting the work-life balance of individuals. The findings help to conclude that people are impacted by cognitive intrusion due to technology’s continuous influence in our day-to-day lives. The study is directly linked to contemporary organizations as they have increased their technology usage during work-from-home in the current pandemic times.

TL;DR: In this article , the specific roles played by big data in organizational risks management are reviewed and a comparative case study analysis among three companies that utilize Big Data in risk management is carried out.
Abstract: Technological advancement has exposed companies to various risks. With the adoption of technological infrastructures in many companies, various processes have been rendered vulnerable to different forms of threats. Evidence from the current empirical studies on organizational management indicates effective risk assessment is a crucial aspect in any organization. Global technological advancement has equally redefined risk assessment and management strategies. Global leading technology companies such as Apple Inc., Amazon Inc., and Google are leveraging modern technology to unlock hidden data to aid in risk assessment and management. As evidenced in this research report, the use of big data has revolutionized risk assessment in many companies across the world. Big data technology has enabled organizations to collect, store, and assess huge information to aid in risk assessment and management. The processes of risk identification, assessment, mitigation, monitoring, and reporting have been redefined due to the adoption of big data analytical technology. As a result, this research reviews the specific roles played by big data in organizational risks management. The research carries out a comparative case study analysis among three companies that utilize big data in risk management. Specifically, the roles of big data technology in risk management at Apple Inc., Amazon Inc., and at Google are identified. Results from this comparative analysis are used in formulating recommendations for various organizations that desire to adopt big data analytical technology in risk management.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors explored the effect of work-life balance on the dimensions of organizational commitment (affective, continuance, and normative commitment) by collecting data by means of a questionnaire distributed to a sample of workers in one of the big food companies.
Abstract: The study aimed to explore the effect of work-life balance on the dimensions of organizational commitment (affective, continuance, and normative commitment) by collecting data by means of a questionnaire distributed to a sample of workers in one of the big food companies. The results showed a positive significant effect of work-life balance on the affective and normative commitment, and a negative effect of work-life balance on continuance commitment. These results agreed with some previous studies and differed with others. The study recommended the need to pay more attention to the balance of work because it improves employee emotional attachment and obligation to the organization and reduces their assessment of their relationship with the organization through the costs they incur in the case of leaving the organization. Researchers are recommended to study work-life balance by focusing on its dimensions and not as a whole variable.
