    Purpose: This study, grounded in Emotional Intelligence Theory by Daniel Goleman aims to study the impact of Emotional Intelligence on the Organizational Commitment of employees working in educational sectors. This study further identifies the personality traits and gender acting as the moderator between emotional intelligence and organizational commitment. Participants and Methods: The study's sample consists of men and women who work in different educational institutions. The employees working in various educational sectors were administered using a series of questionnaires to gauge their demographic information, personality traits, emotional intelligence, and organizational commitment. Utilizing SPSS26.0, the data was examined to determine the influence of gender and personality factors as well as emotional intelligence on organizational commitment. Results: The current study found a substantial relationship between emotional intelligence and organizational commitment in workers in the education sector. The Big Five Inventory moderator has a weak but somewhat significant impact, and the study further demonstrates the strong impact of gender on organizational commitment. According to the study, there is no difference in organizational commitment between male and female means of gender, but there is a difference between them when it comes to the big five inventory. Conclusion: Emotional intelligence has a significant impact on the organizational commitment of workers in the education sector. The results of the current study also showed that although personality qualities may serve as a moderator in some way between organizational commitment and emotional intelligence, gender is not a relevant moderator

    Despite the fact that fertilizers have been used for millennia for sustainable crop production, this high and considerable dependence on fertilizers heightens environmental concerns with the indirect human exposure due to accumulation of toxins in food chain via soil contamination. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the application of fertilizers to the soil and their effect on the accumulation of copper and nickel in spinach (Spinacia oleracea), garlic (Allium sativum), wheat (Triticum aestivum), maize (Zea mays), and barley (Hordeum vulgare); as well as potential health concerns associated with consuming vegetables cultivated on this contaminated land. Samples of available soil, food crops, and human blood were collected from three different Tehsils: Bhalwal, Sahiwal, and Silanwali and were regarded as site 1, site 2 and site 3 respectively. Urea, farmyard manure, and potassium chloride were delivered to Site 1; urea phosphate, manure, and ammonium sulphate were delivered to Site 2; and superphosphate, ammonium phosphate, and nitrate phosphate were delivered to Site 3. Data was subjected to statistical analysis for computing out ANOVA and correlation. Analysis revealed that minimum copper concentration was found in the soil of T. aestivum grown at Site-1 while the inhabitants of Site 3 had the highest concentration of Cu in their blood. The highest level of HIR was found in the human beings that ate the S. oleracea grown at Site 3. It is strongly advised that fertilizers be used sparingly, as their excessive use can cause human health risks
