This study proposes and empirically assesses a bio-inspired conceptual framework, termed Digital DNA, for modeling Industry 5.0 transformation as a complementary extension of established Industry 4.0 principles with an explicit focus on human-centricity, sustainability, and resilience. Rather than positing a new industrial revolution, our positioning follows the European Commission’s view that Industry 5.0 complements Industry 4.0 by emphasizing stakeholder value and human-technology symbiosis. We encode organizational capabilities (genotype) into four gene groups, Adaptability, Technology, Governance, and Culture, and link them to five human-centric outcomes (phenotype). Twenty capability genes and ten outcome measures were scored, normalized (0–100 scale), and analyzed using correlations, K-means clustering, and mutation/drift tracking to capture both static maturity levels and dynamic change patterns. Results show that high Industry 5.0 readiness is consistently associated with elevated Governance and Culture scores. Three transformation archetypes were identified: Alpha, representing holistic socio-technical integration; Beta, with strong technical capacity but weaker cultural alignment; and Gamma, with fragmented capabilities and elevated vulnerability. The Digital DNA framework offers a replicable diagnostic tool for linking socio-technical capabilities to human-centric outcomes, enabling readiness assessment and guiding adaptive, ethical manufacturing strategies.

Today's economic climate, characterized by globalization and market liberalization, has forced modern markets, forced modern companies to live in a highly competitive environment. Therefore, in this volatile and uncertain environment, a company must optimize its available resources, and in particular human capital, which is a fundamental source of value creation and value and wealth creation. Human capital is a strategic lever of competitiveness that companies must Human capital is a strategic lever of competitiveness that companies must take into account. Site Companies are not left out; like all companies in the world, they must also be aware of the importance of this factor and its direct impact on organizational effectiveness. This is achieved through better management of human capital and through various tools, in this case the social audit. This tool is the most privileged to implement because it allows an inventory of the human resource management function and remains the best ally for reducing the social risks faced by companies. This tool is the most privileged to implement because it allows an inventory of the human resources management function and remains the best ally to reduce the social risks faced by companies. Our study serves to offer an overview of the literature on social auditing and social performance. Thus, we seek to answer the question of the contribution of social audit to a company's social performance by revealing different theoretical models that understand this relationship (social audit and social performance.

The aim of the study is to find out how innovation affects economic growth in the BRICS countries. The World Bank 2021 World Development Indicators database, covering the period from 2000 to 2019, was used to collect data. There are three ways to quantify innovation: research and development, patents, and trademarks. This study looked at how the GDP of the BRICS countries responds to the hit from research and development, patents, and trademarks. Stationarity tests are conducted using panel unit-roots. For the study, the authors used both multiple regression for each country and panel data regression estimates for the BRICS countries. The authors suggest several compelling factors for BRICS economies to examine the development of innovation, especially in research and development, patents, and trademarks, as a potential opportunity to accelerate economic growth. Furthermore, the authors found that the overall impact of research and development, patents, and trademarks on economic growth is significant and growing rapidly among the BRICS economies, demonstrating that innovation contributes significantly to economic growth. The results of this study show that research and development, patents, and trademarks are important drivers of innovation and, therefore, GDP growth in the BRICS region.

For a long time, auditing has been considered a discipline dedicated to the evaluation of financial and accounting information. Today, he has demonstrated his strengths in various areas of business, including the social component, the practice of social audit or its origin, but this discipline remains limited, despite its importance for human resource management. This article discusses social audit as an anti-crisis management tool. Modern social audit has methods that allow us to give a fairly accurate and objective description of the potential of the management body and to identify its real ability to innovate. And they allow you to have a positive impact on the risks associated with human resources management. The main purpose of this publication is to summarize a review of the literature on social auditing and its impact on human resource management risk management. The implementation of a human resource management tool, which is considered the key to socio-economic efficiency and human capital adaptation, is highlighted as a paramount task, despite the fact that most companies do not choose this practice. Based on the results of the analysis of bibliographic materials, it was found that social audit: has a positive impact on the practice of managing risks associated with human resource management; seen as an effective tool for identifying positive social and emotional indicators of improving social performance; the importance of social audit in the enterprise and its role in minimizing crises associated with personnel practices.
