Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the link between employee value proposition (EVP) dimensions, employee commitment and organisational citizenship behaviours (OCBs) in organisations.
Design/methodology/approach
This cross-sectional study collected data from 134 employees of a government department using a survey method. The collected data were analysed with a regression method using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 24.
Findings
The regression analysis shows that perceived organisational support, and work environment (WE) influence employee commitment. Also, the relationship between organisational commitment (OC) and OCB was found to be significant. The analysis also confirms that OC mediates the relationship between the EVP variables and OCB.
Research limitations/implications
This study is cross-sectional research, future studies may adopt a longitudinal method or multi-sourced data for further research insights. Due to the adopted research design, the findings should be interpreted with this in mind.
Practical implications
This study helps to understand the impact of EVP attributes on employee commitment in organisations. The finding would benefit organisations on the need to enhance EVP fulfilment, and its benefits findings from the study show perceived organisation support and WE affects OC while OC affects OCB. It is crucial for organisations to consider and align EVP strategies in their people management strategies.
Originality/value
This study contributes to the EVP theory by analysing the role of affiliation dimension of the EVP on employee commitment. Prior research appears to have neglected the influence of the EVP on employee commitment.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between employer branding attribute of organisational support and employee retention in a government agency in New Zealand.
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between employer branding attribute of organisational support and employee retention in a government agency in New Zealand.
Design/methodology/approach
This study is cross-sectional in design, and an online survey method was used to collect data from 134 research participants. Research participants were recruited from a local council in New Zealand. The Process Macro Regression method was employed to analyse the collected data.
Findings
The main findings from this study are: first, the study shows that perceived organisational support (POS) as an employer branding technique affects employee retention. Second, POS significantly influenced employees’ organisational commitment (OC) as a predictor of employee retention. Third, the relationship between organisational support and employee retention was mediated by OC in this study.
Research limitations/implications
This study examined POS as an employer branding strategy; the findings have a number of valuable implications for organisations. This study suggests that organisations should develop adequate organisational support mechanisms as a way of acquiring the status of a better employer among different stakeholders.
Practical implications
Precisely, the findings imply that organisations should focus on increasing organisational support to attract, maintain and retain employees because employees desire conducive and favourable work environments.
Social implications
A well-crafted and efficiently implemented organisational supportive strategies may enhance the reputational status of the organisation as an employer brand among its future job applicants.
Originality/value
This study tested POS as an employer branding attribute in the New Zealand context; research on POS as an employer branding strategy is scarce. The results suggest that organisations that embrace organisational support mechanisms as employer branding strategy succeed in maintaining and retaining their talents for a longer time.

Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
The results of the research paper’s conceptual model reveal that positive improvements in perceived organizational support (POS) and the work environment (WE), as elements of the employee value proposition (EVP) between employer and employee, do increase organizational commitment (OC) in employees. This in turn boosts organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) as the employee is more willing to invest their effort beyond the minimum expected level to produce innovative work for the organization’s benefit.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to identify the role of internet of things (IoT) in water supply chain management and helps to understand its future path from the junction of computer science and resource management.
Design/methodology/approach
The current research was studied through bibliometric review and content analysis, and various contributors and linkages were found. Also, the possible directions and implications of the field were analyzed.
Findings
The paper’s key findings include the role of modern computer science in water resource management through sensor technology, big data analytics, IoT, machine learning and cloud computing. This, in turn, helps in understanding future implications of IoT resource management.
Research limitations/implications
A more extensive database can add up to more combinations of linkages and ideas about the future direction. The implications and understanding gained by the research can be used by governments and firms dealing with water management of smart cities. It can also help find ways for optimizing water resources using IoT and modern-day computer science.
Originality/value
This study is one of the very few investigations that highlighted IoT’s role in water supply management. Thus, this study helps to assess the scope and the trend of the case area.
