Abstract

Digital technology has reshaped various sectors of the world so that tasks are executed seamlessly within the shortest period through digital technology. It suffices to state that Uganda has also incorporated the same in enhancing virtually all sectors. For example, in recent times, buying, selling goods, and negotiating contracts are done majorly through digital technology. However, despite the prospect of e-commerce, some challenges may limit its viability in Uganda. In this regard, the study examines the legal and socio-economic issues concerning the adoption of digital commerce in Uganda. A hybrid method was used, and 304 questionnaires were distributed (through Google form) to respondents residing in Uganda. The data obtained were analysed using a descriptive and analytical approach. The study found that adopting e-commerce has greatly enhanced the commercial sector. However, despite the advantages of e-commerce, there are challenges, which include Data security and privacy, regulatory compliance, consumer protection from internet fraudsters and unfair trade practices, illiteracy of consumers, and poor and high cost of internet access. The study, therefore, concludes and recommends that e-commerce is a good innovation that could enhance and lead to further economic development in Uganda. In this regard, for smooth e-commerce operations in Uganda, there is a need for effective mechanisms in ensuring legal compliance and prosecution of anyone involved in data privacy breaches and internet fraudster. Furthermore, active and cost reduction of internet access could aid in enhancing the operation of e-commerce in Uganda. This research builds upon existing knowledge by discovering the legal and social-economic factors prohibiting the adoption of e-commerce in Uganda followed by specific recommendations and ensuring internet accessibility improvement in improving the country's digital economy.

Abstract

The issue of employee well-being has dominated discussion amongst scholars from interdisciplinary congregations quite apart from hospitality business practitioners. It was this debate that gave rise to this research. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the significant effect of organizational justice on employee well-being in the hospitality work environment based on a cross-sectional survey design. Twenty four-star hotels were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data was collected with organizational justice and employee well-being validated instruments. Ethical principles regarding the participants were followed to avoid being harmed or coerced. After the data cleaning process, the valid data representing participants’ information was analyzed with frequency distribution while linear regression was employed to analyze the formulated research hypotheses. A statistical package for the social sciences was used to perform the analysis. After the analysis, it was found that organizational justice significantly predicted employee well-being positively. This study concludes that distributive, procedural, and interactional justice enhance employee well-being in the hospitality sector. The findings suggest that managers can reduce turnover by integrating organizational justice into daily decisions.
