Digital diversity and inclusion: Agenda for data privacy and protection
Mujtaba, Bahaudin G.; Vardarlıer, Pelin; Gündoğmuş, Emine
We are in interesting times in the twenty-first century’s world of service and support, where digital transformation (and artificial intelligence, in particular) is rising, while the focus is being placed on transformation in human resource development. While we are more focused than ever before on advanced tools and technology, we also must focus on advancing human knowledge on digital literacy and workplace practices in an inclusionary manner in this multicultural and borderless world of commerce. Since much of the world transitioned to teleworking during the pandemic closures, we now know that digital diversity is a growing reality that requires additional awareness, reflection, and training for everyone to use it in an equitable and inclusionary manner while complying with privacy and security laws regarding the personally identifiable information of employees and consumers. In this chapter, the focus is on human resources in the areas of digital diversity, data privacy, and inclusion practices since our interactions are transforming along with our mindsets but not necessarily in parallel lines. We offer a reflection on digital diversity, inequity of access to online content, inclusion, data protection, and best practices to create an inclusive digital work environment for all the company’s human resources.

Technology matters: The efficacy of virtual realistic job preview and its effect on job commitment in hybrid staffing context
Song, Xiaochuan; Vardarlıer, Pelin
Realistic job preview (RJP) has been considered an effective way for organizations to provide job candidates with snapshots of both positive and negative aspects of the jobs they apply for. However, research on examining the efficacy of virtual reality-assisted RJP (VR-assisted RJP) is still limited, not to mention the examination of VR-assisted RJP’s capacity on predicting person-organization fit (P-O fit) and person-job fit (P-J fit) and turnover. In this chapter, we review the development of RJP in the past few decades and the development of VR-assisted RJP and discuss concerns of VR-assisted RJP. Implications and future research directions are discussed.

Green human resources management integration with employee performance and training development function of the energy sector: Strategy recommendations
Vardarlıer, Pelin; Türk, Abdullah
In this study, the subject of green human resource management is evaluated. By making a comprehensive analysis, it is aimed to generate strategies for the companies to increase the performance of the human resources. In this respect, the first practical strategy proposal of the study is that human resources management should both teach and learn individual behavior changes that will encourage an environmental corporate culture. In this framework, necessary investments should be made in training and development activities that will bring a collective awareness, and by supporting employee participation. It is understood that the philosophy of green human resources management is one of the essential management practices for an energy sector and this philosophy should be evaluated within the shared values through human resources management.

The role of organic products in preventing the climate crisis
Vardarlıer, Pelin; Girgin, Nilüfer
The aim of this study is to determine the motivational factors affecting the intention of buying organic food consumer profile in Turkey. At the same time, it is to determine how these factors affect the purchase intention. It is determined that the motivation factor that most affects the consumers’ intention to purchase organic food is the natural ingredient element. Other effective motivational elements following the natural content are the following. It has been observed that the good physical health of the products, the price of the products, and familiarity with the products are effective. The results of the research will contribute to the determination of marketing strategies of organic food brands and the policies of the authorities regarding organic agriculture. Organic products also help to achieve energy efficiency. Thanks to organic farming, energy use is significantly reduced. Using less energy will also reduce carbon emissions. This will facilitate the fight against the climate crisis. Therefore, it is important for states to support investments in organic agriculture. In this context, lower taxes from these investors will help the projects to provide cost advantages. In addition, it is important to increase technological investments on this issue. These points will contribute to the reduction of the climate crisis problem.
