Abstract: According to Todd Barol (2012) he postulates that a poor human resource planning has a great effect on the organization or company. Human resource plays a necessary and invaluable role in administrative functions within the organization. Human resource manages payroll, benefit, recruiting and hiring employee and act as a link between staff and management since HR manages such a different assessment of responsibilities, a disorganized and incompetent place of work can be the outcome if the department falls, to plan distinctive responsibilities effectively. Human resource is systematic process of training and growth, by which individual gain apply knowledgeable insight and attitude to manage organization, work effectively. It emphasizes the opportunity to apply ones knowledge and need to learn and grow by so doing knowledge is meaningless unless there is opportunity to apply it and this is achieved through exposure.

Development without which we overcome the continuing shortage of trained people as we strive to throw off the bonds of economic backwardness and seek to achieve the socio-economic objective of our national development plan. In all economic activities, human effort is necessary to work machines, milk cows, harvest crops, load a van, sell goods, and keep accounts and so on. This human effort which is vital to production is called labor. It can be manual (working with one‘s hand or it can be mental labor using head or brain) effectiveness on the direct relationship.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine Tea Production Automation Influence on Selected Multinational Tea Companies Field Costs in Kericho and Bomet Counties, Kenya. Correlational and descriptive research design was used where census sampling method was used to sample unit managers and field managers from the target population of 91 employee of the three multi-national tea companies in Kericho and Bomet Counties which were; Unilever Tea Kenya Limited, James Finlays Kenya Limited and Williamsons Tea Kenya Limited. The study used open ended structured questionnaire as the primary tool for data collection. Data was analyzed using both the descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings reveal that automation has significantly reduced the cost of land preparation, tea pruning cost; fertilizer application cost and cost of pruning. The study concludes that automation significantly reduced the cost of land preparation; application of fertilizers cost;  reduces harvesting costs; it reduces tea production field labour costs and reduction in number of errors thus increasing tonnage of tea weighed and collected. It leads to faster work flow and that a bigger area is covered by few people working using machines.

Keywords: Automation, Labour requirements, Production Field Costs.

Abstract: Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) explained the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation in inverted U-shaped curve but the validity of EKC hypothesis can be affected by additional variable and area of study. This study focused on 27 European Union (EU) countries with consideration of two new variables; information communication technology (ICT) and E-commerce consumption which recently had rapid growth in EU. The data was panel data during 2008–2014 and mainly was from world indicator index (WDI). Fixed effect (FE) and Random effect (RE) approach was considered and FE was selected by Hausman test to analyze the panel data in this study. The results showed that EKC hypothesis was not valid if ICT and e-commerce consumption ware not estimated. When, considering ICT and e-commerce consumption as additional variables in EKC model, however, the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis was supported for the selected panels in EU region. Moreover, ICT and E-commerce consumption decreases environmental degradation in the model.

Keywords: E-commerce consumption, Economic Growth, Environmental Degradation, Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC), European Union (EU), Information Communication Technology (ICT).

The study adopted a census survey since the population size was small. The self-administered questionnaires were used to collect data. Piloting was conducted to evaluate reliability and validity of the research instrument. Multiple regression was employed to test the significance of the dependent variables on the dependent variable to the others with aid of SPSS version 21. Additionally, secondary data in form of annual reports and financial statements from Central Bank of Kenya for the period 2011 to 2016 was used to supplement the primary data.

Abstract: The objective of this study is to identify psychological influences as the main variables influencing the consumption of clothing by Moroccans, and to measure the nature of the relationships that may exist between these variables and our dressing behavior, and then determine the effect of these variables on clothing consumption behavior among Moroccans.

Therefore, the study we decided to conduct aims to measure the impact of psychological influences on clothing consumption behavior, more specifically among Moroccon consumers .

Our project is therefore to apprehend Moroccan society as a whole through the prism of clothing by linking the ways of being, behaviors and gestures attached to it to the functioning and ways of thinking of individuals.

Keywords: consumption behavior, clothing, Attachment to the brand,Personal factors , psychological influences.

The study adopted secondary data analysis research design.The observations used were date from January the year 2015 to December 2018 and included48 monthly observations.The population was composed of all the 45 SACCO’s in Laikipia County. The data was obtained from Kenya National Bureau of statistics and audited financial statements of individual SACCO’s.Correlation and multiple regressionwere employed as the analytical tools.The study was driven by the absence of laborious studies that address the dynamics of the liquidity risk in commercial banks in Kenya. The research was also motivated by the mixed results that various previous researchers got for the same types of the variables.The results revealed that there was a strong and statistically significant influence of the various bank specific factors on the liquidity risk of commercial banks in Kenya. Only non-performing loans were found to have a positive effect on the liquidity risk.Other factors that is capital adequacy, profitability and bank size were found to have an negative relationship with the liquidity risk.
