شعر و شاعر سبھی کمال ہوئے

شعر و شاعر سبھی کمال ہوئے
لب ہلے اور پل خیال ہوئے

میں نے یزداں سے پوچھنا یہ ہے
کیسے یوسف ہیں خوش جمال ہوئے

تیرے ہونٹوں کا تذکرہ نہ ہوا
ختم سارے سخن خیال ہوئے

ان کی مژگاں کی بات کیا چھیڑوں
ان پہ قربان سو ہلال ہوئے

تیری تصویر بھی ملی نہ کہیں
آج دل کو عجب ملال ہوئے

رنگ، تتلی، کلی، صبا، شبنم
یہ فضاؔ کے ہیں خد و خال ہوئے

بزرگ افراد کے ساتھ مروجہ معاشرتی روىے

Mankind is scattered across the surface of the earth in the forms of different religious creeds, tribal affiliations, race, colour and nationalities. Yet they share some traits that are similar and universal to all human societies. These traits include love for children and respect for the elders. However, changing times have eroded some of these positive traits. The condition of senior citizens is not enviable in the West and those following in their footsteps. Children are not fulfilling their natural duty to their old parents, and quite often the elderly are forcefully kicked out of their own houses and accommodated in designated places for the old, run by the state welfare organizations.

The Impact of High Performance Work Systems on Business Performance: Examining the Role of Employee Wellbeing

This thesis has two main objectives. The first objective of this thesis is to examine employees’ experience of HPWS in their respective business units. The second objective is to develop a conceptual model that determines how these perceptions are related to their wellbeing and performance. In doing so, both the mutual gains and conflicting outcomes perspectives have been examined. In addition, POS and JDR theories are proposed as alternative theoretical perspectives in examining the pathways through which HPWS can impact on employee wellbeing and business unit level performance. Specifically, building on the notion of JDR model, job control and supervisor support have been hypothesized as important resources to minimize the negative impact of excessive job demands on wellbeing. For the purpose of analysis, data had been collected from 828 employees from 140 business units in insurance industry of Pakistan. The structural equation modeling technique is used to validate the measurement model and for examining the inter-relationships among HPWS, employee wellbeing and business unit level performance. At business unit level, the findings lend support for mutual gains perspective. The pathway linking HPWS to business unit level performance via mutual gains perspective received strong support. The empirical findings show that: (1) AMO bundles of HPWS had strong positive influence on POS; (2) Only motivation bundle was significantly and negatively related to excessive job demands while ability and opportunity bundles had no impact on excessive job demands; (3) HPWS, through POS, showed positive impact on employee wellbeing; (4) job satisfaction fully mediates the relationship between HPWS and business unit level performance. Overall, the thesis indicates that while mutual gains perspective is useful in explaining the link between HPWS-wellbeing-performance, extending theory to include new explanatory variables such as POS increases our understanding of the underlying phenomena.
