Determination of a Judicial Procedure for a Claim for Collection of Interest (Penalty) Payable up to the Actual Debt Repayment Date
Authors:   Associate Professor of the Department of Civil and Administrative Proceedings of the Russian State University of Justice, Pavlova Larisa N.
Published: August 2024

The article is devoted to the possibility of consideration in simplified procedures of civil and arbitration proceedings of the claim for the recovery of interest (penalty) on the day of the actual performance of the obligation. The current procedural legislation and explanations of the highest judicial instance allow us to conclude that such a possibility is absent in writ proceedings, and in a simplified one can be implemented only if this requirement is classified as cases unlimited by the price of the claim. At the same time, judicial practice in relation to simplified proceedings is not so categorical, demonstrating the lack of uniformity. The author evaluates the identified legal approaches and justifies proposals to remove restrictions for consideration of the specified requirement in the order of writ and simplified proceedings.

Authors:   Postgraduate Student of the Law Faculty of the Voronezh State University, Stolpovskikh Nikita O.
Published: August 2024

The article justifies that when challenging transactions with preference, there is an actual presumption of going outside the normal business of payments with significant delay. The higher standard of proving is applied to refute it. To conclude about the ordinary nature of the operation in this case, it is necessary to investigate legal relationships of a bankrupt and a defendant as well as relevant relationships of a debtor with other counterparties, over which the defendant could have received preferential satisfaction and also establish the procedure for making settlements under obligations assumed by the debtor.

Authors:   Senior Lawyer at ZNAKOV Company Intellectual Property Agency, Lukonina Yulia A. , Zakirova Lyaylya V. ,   Lawyer at ZNAKOV Company Intellectual Property Agency
Published: August 2024

The article reviews some procedural aspects of the institution of implementation of international legal provisions in national laws. Ratification of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms is the most vivid example. The Convention requires that the members implement resolutions of the European Court of Human Rights, however, in practice, implementation of resolutions bears a discussion character and raises a lot of questions in scientific communities of theoreticians and among processualists. In this respect, the authors analyze the impact of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights on exercising of justice in civil cases. Particular emphasis is placed on the experience of the Russian Federation and the European countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, the Netherlands and Switzerland). The article determines the role of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights in civil proceedings of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Practice of general jurisdiction courts of the Mari El Republic is mentioned as an example. The analytical and comparative law research methods give the authors an opportunity to carry out a complex analysis of the impact of the practice of the European Court of Human Rights on civil proceedings and arrive at a conclusion that the international aspect retains its relevance and practical importance in review and resolution of civil cases in the system of general jurisdiction courts of Russia.
DISCRETIONARY POWERS OF REGIONS IN TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT OF LAY JUSTICE IN VIEW OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE FEDERAL LAW ON JUSTICES OF THE PEACE IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Authors:   Lecturer of the Department of State Law of the Karelian Branch, Kozyreva Tatyana V.
Published: August 2024

The legality of a judicial act of a justice of the peace directly depends on the observance of the established territorial jurisdiction rules without prejudice to the opportunity to verify compliance with the legal requirements in the establishment of judicial subdistrict borders. Determination of the territorial jurisdiction of cases is affected by provisions of procedural laws and provisions of the laws of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation if justices of the peace are involved. In practice, there are cases when determination of the territorial jurisdiction is affected by resolutions of directorates of the Judicial Department in the constituent entities or presiding judges of district courts. The federal laws also contain provisions establishing the limits of discretionary powers of regions in the determination of judicial subdistrict borders. One should differentiate the grounds and methods of legal regulation of the territorial structure of lay justice and regulation of the caseload of justices of the peace in a judicial district.
Violencia sexual digital contra las mujeres en Colombia: el papel del derecho en la lucha contra la difusión no consentida de contenido sexual
Authors: Andrade Perdomo Ángela María
Published: August 2024

La difusión no consentida de contenido sexual es un tipo de violencia digital que afecta de manera diferencial a las mujeres, favorecido por el anonimato, la masividad y la impunidad. Ante este difícil panorama, Colombia cuenta con enormes retos frente al acompañamiento de las mujeres que están en riesgo o enfrentan estas violencias, teniendo en cuenta que el desarrollo normativo es precario y no existe un tipo penal específico con enfoque de género o políticas públicas específicas que sirvan para prevenir y para acompañar estos casos.
La utilidad de la categoría de género en la justicia transicional en Colombia
Authors: Chaparro Moreno Liliana
Published: August 2024

Este artículo aborda las definiciones de la categoría de género que se han desarrollado en las experiencias de justicia transicional en Colombia y su operativización en informes y decisiones judiciales, con el fin de identificar sus usos y su utilidad, desde algunas premisas teóricas de los estudios de género. Concluye que el género, en tanto categoría, se asocia fundamentalmente a los sujetos mujeres y población LGBT, de quienes se presupone su existencia, relegando su uso como categoría analítica de relaciones de poder a un segundo plano. La justicia transicional en Colombia aún debería poder utilizar la categoría de género para explicar la institución de la guerra y debería mantenerse alerta para identificar cómo la guerra construyó identidades generizadas que son, a su vez, continuamente construidas a partir de la narrativa generada en las decisiones judiciales.
Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists: The Impact of Structured High Fidelity Simulation on Anesthesia Ready Time
Authors: Ballister, DNP, CRNA, APRN Michele Marie
Published: August 2024

Introduction: Student registered nurse anesthetists (SRNAs) at a large academic medical center are limited in clinical training experiences owing to the subjective perception by local anesthesia department administrators of decreased oper-ating room efficiency with SRNA involvement. The purpose of this project was to utilize structured high-fidelity simula-tion (HFS) to increase basic skill proficiency in SRNAs and evaluate the impact of the simulation within the first month of clinical training.Methods: Utilizing the Iowa Model of Evidence-Based Practice to Promote Quality Care, a 5-week structured HFS program was inserted into the nurse anesthesia curriculum before the SRNAs’ first clinical rotation. The program pro-moted basic anesthesia skill proficiency through the assimilation of previously taught and tested technical skills. In-room times and anesthesia ready times of all SRNA cases involving general anesthesia with the placement of an endotrache-al tube during September 2012 and 2013 were compiled by use of retrospective chart review. Using the calculation of elapsed time between in-room time and anesthesia ready time (IRTART), the clinical performance of 2 consecutive classes of SRNAs was compared, one with structured HFS training and one without.Results: The mean IRTART for both groups was similar at 20 minutes with a standard deviation of 10 minutes. The IRTARTs from both groups were within the institution’s operative norm.Conclusion: Structured HFS did not impact the anesthesia ready time of new-to-practice SRNAs. However, the in-formation collected during implementation of HFS and data analysis can be used to develop future avenues to improve current processes for structured HFS and clinical training opportunities.
The Effectiveness of an Anesthesia Handoff Tool: An Electronic Health Record Application to Enhance Patient Safety
Authors: Gillikin, MSN, MSNA DNP, CRNA Karen Elizabeth , Apatov, MSN, MHS, PhD, CRNA Nathaniel
Published: August 2024

Perioperative patient care handoffs are complex and multidimensional and require accurate attention to detail. Communication failures among healthcare providers increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. Utilizing a standardized handoff tool located within the electronic anesthesia record formalizes the handoff process and improves patient safety. Prior to the introduction of the Electronic Anesthesia Handoff Tool, 82 patient care transfer observations were conducted; subsequent to the launch of the tool, 75 patient care transfer observations were conducted, and then before and after comparisons were made. Descriptive statistics, a two-tailed t-test, and Spearman’s correlations were conducted. Alpha level was set at p < 0.05. There were significantly (p<.05) fewer errors made in all categories of patient information following the introduction of the Electronic Anesthesia Handoff Tool. Though there were trends towards more omissions occurring after 3:00 p.m., the difference in most patient information categories was not significant (p>.05). In addition, there were no differences in omissions related to the severity of patient co-morbidities based on patients’ American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification. This study provided information regarding the incidence of patient information inaccuracies and omissions during patient care transfer before and after implementation of an electronic patient care transfer tool.
Effect of Dexmedetomidine on Incidence of Emergence Delirium in Adult Nasal Surgery
Authors: Steinkampf Christopher
Published: August 2024

Background/Purpose/Question. 
Emergence delirium (ED) is an acute phenomenon that develops in the early phase of recovery from general anesthesia, and characterized by confusion, disorientation, & possible violent behavior, and is a common occurrence particularly with nasal surgery. Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective alpha-2 adrenergic agonist that results in anxiolysis, sedation, analgesia, and sympatholysis without depressing ventilation. This educational scholarly project aimed to review the literature and investigate the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine on the incidence of ED in adults recovering from general anesthesia after nasal surgery.
Methods/Evidence Search. 
PubMed and EMBASE were structurally searched from 2011 to 2021. Five randomized controlled studies (RCT) were selected that compared intraoperative dexmedetomidine to a placebo and how the recovery profile was affected in adults after nasal surgery. Key search terms included “anesthesia”, “dexmedetomidine”, “emergence”, “nasal surgery”.
Synthesis of Literature/Results/Discussion. 
There were collectively 392 participants across these five studies, and the incidence of ED in dexmedetomidine groups was significantly lower than control groups (respectively 21% vs. 50%). The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) among dexmedetomidine groups exhibited less variability during emergence without hypotension, which indicates a more stable hemodynamic profile. Analgesic and antiemetic requirements in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) were decreased in dexmedetomidine groups, however these results were not statistically significant.
Conclusion/Recommendations for Practice. 
Intraoperative dexmedetomidine significantly decreases the incidence of ED. Secondary effects, like hemodynamic stability and analgesia, were observed, but these qualities need to be further studied before they can be generalized. Overall, dexmedetomidine is a safe and effective anesthetic adjunct that facilitates a smoother emergence after nasal surgery without any complications.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest syntetyczne przedstawienie idei panelu obywatelskiego oraz przeanalizowanie jego potencjalnych atutów i wad jako instrumentu włączającego mieszkańców w procesy współdecydowania.
Inicjatywy obywatelskie łodzian na rzecz neutralności klimatycznej miasta
Authors: Wasiak Anna
Published: August 2024

Antropocen nie jest jeszcze oficjalnie uznanym określeniem epoki geologicznej, w której funkcjonuje człowiek. Jednak wiele środowisk naukowych postuluje przyjęcie tej nazwy, co oznaczałoby nie tylko uznanie, że drapieżna działalność człowieka, jak nigdy do tej pory, wpłynęła na złą sytuację planety. Oznaczałoby to także oficjalne uznanie odpowiedzialności za dramatyczną sytuację spadku różnorodności biologicznej. Uznać należy również, że to właśnie człowiek jako sprawca winien być odpowiedzialny za powstrzymanie, ale i częściowe choćby odwrócenie tego trendu.
Ludzie zazwyczaj nie mają wpływu na kształtowanie polityki państw i globalnych korporacji, wywierają natomiast wymierny wpływ na powstrzymanie destrukcji i pracę na rzecz lokalnej bioróżnorodności. Celem artykułu jest zaprezentowanie inicjatyw obywatelskich podejmowanych przez mieszkanki i mieszkańców Łodzi na rzecz dążenia miasta w kierunku neutralności klimatycznej, dokonano zatem inwentaryzacji i klasyfikacji wybranych inicjatyw.

En torno a la voz. Notas sobre las poéticas latinoamericanas del significante
Authors: Calderón Farfán Alí
Published: August 2024

El artículo delimita el concepto de “voz” en los niveles intratextual y extratextual. A partir de la “des-represión del autor” (Barthes), se piensa la voz como punto de intersección entre el cuerpo y el lenguaje, y se consideran las implicaciones metodológicas de este punto de vista (Meschonnic, Maulpoix, Benoit). En el “afuera” del texto, la voz puede entenderse como consecuencia de la bouche-oreille referida por Valéry y como el espacio donde la pulsión da origen a la pulsación poética (Kristeva). Esta macrorretórica tiene su correlato al interior del texto donde la voz se caracteriza como la signatura sonora del sujeto lírico (Blasing). En la descripción de algunos textos de poetas latinoamericanos se refieren distintos fenómenos identificados con la dinámica de la voz. En consecuencia, se provee un concepto operativo para el análisis de la poesía contemporánea.

Tulisan ini dilatarbelakangi oleh kemunculan berita perkawinan sejenis yang tercatat resmi di KUA sehingga menimbulkan pro dan kontra di masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas peran KUA terhadap praktik tercatatnya perkawinan sejenis ditinjau dari teori efektivitas hukum Lawrence M. Friedman. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan pengambilan datanya menggunakan teknik dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Peran KUA tidak efektif menurut teori efektivitas hukum karya Friedman M. Lawrence, karena dari unsur legal culture dan legal structurenya tidak dapat berjalan optimal. Pada pelaksanaan legal structure ini terdapat unsur kelalaian yang dilakukan oleh pihak KUA dalam menjalankan tugasnya sebagai lembaga berwenang untuk melakukan pencatatan perkawinan, yang dalam hal ini dibuktikan dengan tidak optimalnya pelaksanaan tahapan pemeriksaan dokumen yang mengakibatkan tercatatnya perkawinan sejenis. Sedangkan pada legal culture, pelaku memiliki tingkat kesadaran hukum yang rendah. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan tindakan mereka melakukan pemalsuan identitas demi mewujudkan keinginan pribadi mereka yang tidak sesuai dengan norma hukum dan sosial di Indonesia
Contribution à l'étude de la résistance des bois tropicaux aux acides minéraux
Authors: Savard J. , André A.M. , Guinet P.
Published: August 2024

On a tenté de classer les bois durs tropicaux en fonction de leur résistance aux solutions d'acides chlorhydrique, nitrique et sulfurique.Après trempage des éprouvettes dans des conditions similaires à celles qui prévalent dans l'industrie, on a mesuré leur taux d'absorption, leur perte de poids et leurs variations dimensionnelles. Le comportement des éprouvettes lorsqu'elles sont laissées à sécher à l'air a été observé. Il a été établi que l'action des acides rend les bois beaucoup plus sensibles à l'action ultérieure des solutions alcalines. Les essences testées ont été comparées au Pitch-pin (Pinus elliottii et Pinus palustris).

Authors: Karaoğlan Mustafa , Akın Takmaz Suna
Published: August 2024

Abstract
Objective: This study investigated the impact of transcutaneous radiofrequency therapy on chronic pain among patients diagnosed with myofascial pain syndrome.

Patients and Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 30 patients who sought treatment at the pain outpatient clinic of Ordu State Hospital between January and August 2021. These patients exhibited trigger points consistent with myofascial pain in the upper trapezius muscle region. The patient cohort comprised 22 females (73.3%) and 8 males (26.7%), with a mean age of 45.27±13.05 years. Baseline Visual Analogue Scale scores were recorded before the procedure, and VAS measurements were taken at the 1st, 4th, and 12th weeks post-procedure. Total analgesic use and Patient Global Impression of Change scores were also evaluated starting from the 1st week.

Results: Among patients diagnosed with myofascial pain syndrome, a significant reduction in VAS scores and TAU was observed from the 1st week, persisting through the 4th week. Analysis of PGIC scores revealed that patients reported a 77% satisfaction level in the 1st week, with a slight, albeit statistically nonsignificant, increase in satisfaction noted in the 2nd week, followed by a decline in satisfaction from the fourth week onwards.

Conclusion: Transcutaneous radiofrequency therapy demonstrates efficacy in reducing analgesic consumption and improving the quality of life by alleviating myofascial pain. This non-invasive, painless, and easily administered treatment modality holds promise for addressing various pain conditions beyond myofascial pain syndrome.

Keywords: Myofascial pain syndrome, transcutaneous radiofrequency therapy, quality of life.
Diverse perceptions among engineering students and staff of the enablers and constraints of academic resilience
Authors: Mapaling C , du Plooy B , Webb P
Published: August 2024

High dropout rates and a lack of academic resilience continue to plague South African higher education. Often, this is more prevalent in practical disciplines that have been subjected to curriculum changes in recent years, such as engineering. It is challenging to understand academic resilience in university settings due to insufficient research. Therefore, more information is needed on the role of personal characteristics and the socio-ecological university environment in enabling and constraining students’ academic resilience. To assist higher education institutions in theorising academic resilience, this article presents a novel conceptual framework of Ungar’s social-ecological theory, and Ebersöhn’s Flocking theory. As part of this theorisation, this article also provides diverse perspectives on academic resilience from engineering students, lecturers, and support staff through semi-structured interviews. An analysis of this qualitative data was conducted using thematic analysis. A major finding of the study was that enabling factors were principally personal, whereas constraining factors were principally socio-ecological. Findings led to the development of an original framework for conceptualising the enablers and constraints of academic resilience in engineering students. This conceptual framework could guide towards the identification of areas of priority for academic resilience and in doing so contribute to interventions to reduce student dropout.
The nature of decolonisation in health sciences curricula: A scoping review
Authors: Koch R , Pool J , Heymans Y
Published: August 2024

The amassed momentum from recent student protests applied pressure on Higher Education to respond to the calls for curriculum transformation. While decolonisation is viewed as an opportunity to create an inclusive and diverse learning environment, decolonising health curricula seems unachievable because the concept is not clearly defined, resulting in curricula that continue to marginalise and exclude certain groups. This scoping review explores the nature of decolonisation within Health Sciences. Online databases were used to identify 21 sources addressing the nature of decolonisation in Health Sciences. The findings indicate that decolonisation in Health Sciences is described as the process of acknowledging the impact of colonialism; combatting injustice and inequities; reclaiming and revaluing heritage; and interrogating knowledge to find alternative ways. This review added to understanding the nature of decolonisation in the Health Sciences field and its potential as a vehicle for transformation in HE (Higher Education).
In pursuit of social justice in South African higher education: Exploring the relationship between epistemological access and the development of students' academic literacies
Authors: Collett K.S , Dison A , Du Plooy L
Published: August 2024

The concept of epistemological access, formulated by Morrow (1994; 2007), has been highly influential in higher education. It has been widely used in the sense of moving beyond physical or formal access to meaningful access to the “goods” of the university. An academic literacy approach acknowledges the complexity of literacy practices at university level. According to this approach, students need to master disciplinary literacies in order to learn and engage with knowledge (Lea and Street 1998; 2006). Epistemological access, social justice and academic literacies have been widely researched in the South African higher education field. This conceptual article explores the relationship between epistemological access and the development of students’ academic literacies to enhance social justice within the South African higher education context. We draw on related literature and our current experiences as academics to critique current institutional practices aimed at addressing the development of academic literacies and promoting student success. We argue for greater attention to be paid at institutional and faculty level to enhancing epistemological access and social justice. This article ends by putting forward a number of propositions towards strengthening student epistemological access and academic literacies development in higher education from a social justice perspective.
Postgraduate students’ experiences during COVID-19 at an open distance learning institution
Authors: Maboe K.A.
Published: August 2024

Students’ research, interactivity, experiences, and exposure have increasingly become important indicators of quality in higher education, however these expectations declined during COVID-19 pandemic. While studies have been conducted on postgraduate students’ experiences during their studies, there is lack of empirical evidence on their experiences during COVID-19 pandemic, specifically at open distance learning institutions (ODLs). To bridge this identified gap, qualitative exploratory research was conducted to explore the experiences of postgraduate students registered in master’s and doctoral programmes at the Department of Health Studies, University of South Africa, during the pandemic. Non-probability purposive sampling was used. Online interviews via Microsoft Teams were used for data collection. The interviews were recorded and the data obtained were analysed thematically. Findings revealed both positive and negative experiences. Anxiety, exhaustion and frustration due to sickness, death of family members, poor communication from the university, inadequate resources and poor internet access affected students’ studies. Some participants reported lack of supervisory communication and support, while others applauded the continuous support of their supervisors and the university’s improvement of its electronic communication linkages. Microsoft Teams was newly adopted. Working from home also gave them an opportunity to accelerate their studies. In conclusion based on the findings the researcher recommended that the university continue to improve academic support and address the mental health of students to prepare them to accept current and future unforeseen circumstances positively. Strengthening collaboration with national and international partners to enhance continuous online communication between the university and the students should also be considered.

MONETARY POLICY CHALLENGES IN THE NEW NORMAL ERA: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Arifin Samsul , Sayifullah Sayifullah
Published: August 2024

This paper aims to provide a systematic literature review (SLR) of studies conducted on the economic impact of the epidemic using the DSGE model. This research is guided by the PRISMA Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses) statement, utilizing a systematic literature review (SLR) with Harzing's Publish or Perish software and Google Scholar as the primary sources, specifically focusing on the DSGE model's application. Under PRISMA, research is researched through three processes: 1) Defining clear research questions that allow systematic research, 2) Identifying inclusion and exclusion criteria, and 3) Examining a large database of scientific literature within a set time. A total of 11 out of 38 papers were identified and analyzed to provide a better understanding of the epidemiological model, the tradeoff of the lockdown policy between health and economy and the methodology adopted in the previous studies while the rest of the most recent studies appear to be related to the DSGE model with the adaptation of the epidemiological model during the Covid-19 pandemic. A total of four studies agree that many countries are imposing “lockdowns,” if not generally implementing “social distancing” to contain and potentially eliminate the virus.

This study examines the factors influencing employment among the elderly population in the Bangka Belitung Islands, where the elderly population increased by 41,85% from 2010 to 2020, reaching 8,27%. Notably, 45,38% of the elderly were employed in 2020. Using data from the 2020 National Socio-Economic Survey (SUSENAS), this research analyzes individuals aged 60 and above through descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression. The results indicate significant predictors of employment among the elderly include rural residency, being the head of the household, gender, age, and marital status. Specifically, elderly individuals who live in rural areas, are male, currently married, aged 60-69, and are household heads are more likely to be employed. In contrast, poverty status and education level do not significantly impact employment. This study highlights the demographic and social factors that influence the employment tendencies of the elderly, providing insights for policy development to support this population segment.

The results suggest that Gunungsari Village should pursue a Weakness-Opportunity (WO) Strategy, leveraging its strengths to overcome weaknesses and capitalize on opportunities. Conversely, Kedumulyo Village is recommended to adopt a Weakness-Threat (WT) Strategy to mitigate threats while addressing its weaknesses. These strategic recommendations are crucial for transforming these villages into developed or independent entities with sustainable tourism practices.
AFFECTING FACTORS FARMER WELFARE IN INDONESIA
Authors: Maridjo Herry , Ignasiak –Szulc Aranka
Published: August 2024

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the economic welfare of farmer households in Indonesia, focusing on the impact of arable land area, total production costs, labor allocation, and the percentage of land ownership. The research also seeks to specify the agricultural household economic model and propose alternative policy measures to enhance farmer welfare. Utilizing data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), the study employs Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Fixed Effect panel data models for analysis. The findings reveal that larger arable land areas, increased workload, and higher percentages of owned land significantly improve national farming income, thereby enhancing farmer welfare. Conversely, higher total production costs negatively impact welfare levels in both upland and rice field contexts. The economic model's specifications across eight structural equations align well with theoretical expectations, indicating robustness and consistency with observed agricultural phenomena. Policy simulations suggest that promoting employment opportunities in the off-farm sector could be an effective strategy to boost farmer welfare. Such policies may lead to a reduction in labor allocated to agriculture, increased overall household income, higher expenditures on food consumption from agricultural outputs, and an expanded household income surplus. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers aiming to formulate targeted interventions that address the challenges faced by farmers, ultimately improving their economic well-being and ensuring sustainable agricultural development in Indonesia.

Authors: Audit Abib , Kadarwati Nunik , Binardjo Goro
Published: August 2024

This study examines the impact of minimum wage policies on unemployment and worker welfare in West Java from 2010 to 2021, with a particular focus on the role of economic growth as a mediating variable. Utilizing a time series econometric approach, we analyze data from various economic indicators to understand the dynamics between these variables. The findings indicate that while minimum wage increases are associated with a reduction in unemployment, the effect is significantly mediated by economic growth, which also enhances worker welfare. This study contributes to the literature by providing empirical evidence from a developing country context and offering practical insights for policymakers aiming to balance wage growth with employment and economic stability.
