Cedric Alwyn Worthmann — 2025-04-17

Humankind has been intrigued by Artificial Intelligence (AI) for decades (Fenwick and Molnar, 2022) as it is foreseen as a tool to improve efficiencies, further organizational interests, and improve societal well-being. Over the past years, there have been advancements in developing and deploying AI systems and tools in many critical services sectors, influencing organizations and people with a mixed level of benefits, successes, and risks.
The research aimed to understand the current knowledge base and gaps concerning the compliance oversight for the safe development, deployment, implementation, and use of AI systems within critical infrastructure services, specifically focusing on the energy or electricity sector. The driving factor for this research is that within the critical infrastructure and services sectors, incorrect decisions influence more than financial returns but can cause severe equipment damage, premature failure, and harm to people.
The outcome of this research is a unique AI compliance audit framework development procedure, AI compliance audit framework, and AI audit process, which is a fit-for-purpose compliance solution driven from a senior executive management level, integrated into specific existing compliance or governance processes, which is more advanced than the existing AI governance frameworks, audit mechanisms, and checklists.
This research significantly contributes to the industry and sector by providing a practical structure that can be utilized to safely and sustainably implement AI systems in this critical sector. The AI compliance audit framework is a mechanism that allows the energy sector to place guardrails around the AI system that they are procuring or developing throughout its lifecycle. The framework considers a multi-dimensional audit regime, which can seamlessly integrate into existing quality, information technology, or environmental assurance processes. Notably, the framework ensures that the energy sector considers the integrated software systems collectively when auditing and ensuring compliance, not as individual components.
Lastly, the research provides a foundational structure for future researchers to expand on, focusing on gaps within the current governance structures, training regimes, and approaches to building a sustainable AI system environment.

How Stress Contributes to Workplace Errors and Incidents

Ashutosh Sharma — 2025-04-17

Stress can be defined as a state of mental pressure or concern caused by a difficult, unplanned, or unpleasant situation. These situations can arise from personal, professional, or external factors. These pressures (direct/indirect) are mostly generated from human’s own decisions or external factors that normally humans can’t control.
Workplace incidents refer to any unexpected and undesirable events that occur within a work environment. These incidents can range from common workplace accidents like slips, trips, and falls to machinery malfunctions to conflicts between employees. Errors in reports, presentations, and operating machines/equipment can lead to serious accidents, injuries, property damage, or even instances of violence.
These incidents can be caused mainly because of four factors: human error, system error, process error, or external factors. Human error is the most variable and causative factor for incidents or errors. Errors caused by humans are mainly due to a lack of knowledge, experience, concentration, or awareness, and stress is one of the most influential factors causing them.
Stress can arise from various sources, including work, relationships, financial challenges, health issues, and major life transitions. This study utilized data from both primary and secondary sources to illustrate how stress contributes to workplace errors and incidents. Employees can significantly decrease errors and incidents in both their professional and personal lives by identifying their specific stressors and implementing effective management strategies—such as meditation, healthy eating, exercise, or other stress-reducing activities.
Managing stress involves healthy coping strategies such as exercise, relaxation techniques, maintaining a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, and, if required, seeking social or professional support without hesitation. Practicing mindfulness and engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation can help alleviate stress, reducing errors and incidents.

In conclusion, adopting a healthy lifestyle, good time management, adaptive corporate work culture, introducing hybrid working styles, and enhancing employee performance and productivity through training sessions can help reduce stress levels. Reducing constant social media interactions and promoting work-life balance can also contribute to calmer employees and fewer errors and workplace incidents. It is important to remember that stress is not always a negative experience; a certain level of stress can be beneficial as it can motivate individuals to perform at their best.

The purpose of this mixed quantitative and qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the employee perception of the impact of the level of education on management styles in California Local Educational Agencies and how those management styles affect their everyday life and job satisfaction.
While there is substantial research on the correlation between education and leadership styles, the intersection of higher education, leadership styles and their direct impact on turnover rates and job satisfaction among Classified employees within California Local Educational Agencies remains underexplored.
A mixed-method phenomenological approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys, observations, and qualitative interviews. The quantitative component included a survey administered to forty-four Classified employees and managers at the Monterey County Office of Education, focusing on management styles, job satisfaction, managerial performance, and turnover-related factors. Qualitative data were collected through indepth interviews with eight Classified managers and employees selected based on covert observations conducted in public settings, meetings, and daily interactions. Data analysis involved triangulation to identify themes and patterns related to educational attainment and its effect on leadership behaviors.
Even though quantitative analysis showed that 51.5% of employees believe that their manager’s level of education impacted their management style, the qualitative analysis and the overall findings indicate that while higher education plays a role in shaping
managerial practices, practical experience and interpersonal skills are often seen as equally or even more crucial in effective leadership.

Higher education is among the most significant factors in producing management practices within California Local Educational Agencies. Managers with advanced academic qualifications are perceived as better leaders and exhibit management styles
that positively impact employee engagement and retention. The practical application of advanced theoretical knowledge remains a key area for improvement. The data suggests customized professional development programs should be implemented to blend academic credentials and real-world management challenges.
Advanced education combined with ongoing leadership training should show the best results in improving organizational effectiveness and employee satisfaction.
