Bibliometric and Narrative Literature Review on Workplace Practices and Employee Wellbeing During Covid-19 Pandemic
Simarjeet Kaur and Kamlesh Rani

The Covid-19 pandemic enforced numerous restrictions across the world which deeply affected the working environment and the employees' wellbeing. The study reviews the literature on workplace practices and employee wellbeing during the pandemic, focusing on the most frequently used keywords, the most contributing authors, and the connection between them. The most used keywords are 'Humans' and 'Covid-19,' and Fujino Y is the most contributing author. The analysis reveals positive and negative impacts of the outbreak on workplace and employees, and suggests some potential measures. The workplace promoted greater flexibility, autonomy, creativity, skill development, higher productivity, and job satisfaction. It suffered from excessive workload, long working hours, poor Internet, and lack of amenities and space. Employees experienced stress, anger, anxiety, depression, emotional distress, loneliness, fear, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), weight gain, and excessive use of drugs and alcohol. The findings may help managers in strategic decision-making and tailor policies and interventions, creating a supportive and resilient work environment, thereby fostering employee satisfaction, productivity, and overall organizational success.

Organizational Social Capital and Its Effect on Performance: A Theoretical Framework Based on Literature Review
Shobha R and Vedava P

The study constructs a conceptual framework elucidating the intricate dynamics between organizational social capital, organizational justice, employee wellbeing and organizational performance. It positions organizational justice as an exogenous variable influencing social capital, which in turn impacts the wellbeing of employees, thereby shaping organizational performance. A thorough review of literature on organizational social capital and its impact on performance identifies a significant research gap. The study posits that organizational justice initiates and influences social capital, subsequently affecting employee wellbeing, which in a cascading effect contributes to organizational performance. The study not only explores the interrelatedness of various dimensions of social capital but also expands the scope of organizational social capital research. By establishing a direct relationship with firm performance, the study extends beyond the individual level, providing valuable insights into how social capital influences the overall effectiveness and success of an organization.
