Editors responsibilities

Editor's Responsibilities
Editors Should:

  • Protect the reputation of their journal(s) and published work by only publishing content of the highest quality and relevance in a timely and responsible manner.
  • Carry out thorough, objective, and confidential peer review for original article submissions that pass the initial quality check and editorial assessment, in adherence with guidelines and IJSRHSS's ethics policy.
  • Detail and justify any article types that will not be peer reviewed (e.g., editorials, opinion pieces, etc.).
  • Provide a transparent review and publication process as far as is possible, with full respect and care paid to the author(s).
  • Provide advice and give reasonable explanations and updates to authors during the submission process and once a decision has been made.
  • Allow authors the right to appeal any editorial decision.
  • Only accept papers based on the original merit, quality, and relevance of their content.
  • Support authors in queries concerning the originality of their submissions and request the support of the IJSRHSS if necessary.
  • Advise the publisher of any third-party material that has been included for which they do not believe sufficient permission has been granted.
  • Be ready and prepared to publish corrections, corrigenda, and errata when necessary, as well as retract articles that you deem unethical, misleading, or damaging.
  • Remain in good communication with both the publisher and the author(s).
