“…The following two measures are OHSAS and management knowledge mentioned three and four times, respectively. The former is the standard or deemed as Safety Management System (SMS), used to ensure the safety of the working environment, while the latter comprises the skills such as programmes and portfolios; (Pillay, 2018). Aside from those devised frameworks or mechanisms for reviewing or assessing the extent of sustainability in the remaining tools listed in figure 5, it is also worth noting that there are a few established metrics that organisations can work against, including SA 8000, GRI indicator, and the Dow Jones sustainability indexes.…”

From the project management perspective, the study purports to examine how sustainability can be integrated into different areas, including project management and manufacturing, by referring to knowledge and concepts established by previous academic contributions and how interdependencies between the three realms mentioned above can, therefore, be identified. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) methodology is used in this study to filter appropriate papers, which are found by the pre-determined combinations of keywords-the pertinent wordings relevant to this study (e.g., sustainable, Triple Bottom Line (TBL), etc.)-for systematic literature review. The study results show the correlation between three types of isomorphism pressure by which social constructionism is shaped. Besides this, the normative pressure is the overall mean (i.e., standards, indices, indicators, etc.) to advance sustainability ideology nowadays. The statistics derived from selected papers accord with the noted context, showing that the International Standardisation Organisation (ISO) standard is the widely accepted method for sustainable development. This reveals that either practitioners or organisations can effectively adopt sustainable practices by referring to such standardised norms with other measures mentioned in this study, such as lean thinking, green supplier selection, project governance etc. Finally, it is concluded that as the component operated within organisations, the achievement of projects is directly affected by the environment in which it is managed; in brief, the more substantial conducting environment where a project is undertaken, the more sustainably attainable outcomes can be derived from a project. In a nutshell, instead of devising a new theory, this study provides some basic knowledge concerning the sustainability of the project management point of view.

“…Based on the current study results, managers’ commitment to integrating technologies is increasingly important for employees to visibly see to increase their trust in new DRST. Specifically, if management does not offer a plan that commits to the purpose of new technologies, then the use of technologies tends to decrease after implementation, thereby negatively impacting worker perceptions of OSH [ 72 ]. It has been suggested that whenever health information is collected in the form of data, the data should be analyzed in aggregate form only and shared back with employees [ 46 ].…”

Using Core Elements of Health and Safety Management Systems to Support Worker Well-Being during Technology Integration

Research studying the intersection of occupational safety and health (OSH) and direct reading and sensor technologies (DRST) is sparse, with a specific lack of research available that has empirically considered ways that DRST may impact worker well-being. In this paper, the authors examine how organizations could utilize core elements of their health and safety management system (HSMS) to coordinate and execute DRST in the workplace to support worker well-being. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) researchers developed a 39-item questionnaire targeting OSH professionals to understand attitudes toward DRST and the current and intended uses of DRST at their place of employment. Eighty-eight OSH professionals completed the questionnaire between August and December 2021. Descriptive results of the study sample are provided but the focus of the study applies the open-ended responses to two questions, which was deductively analyzed. Descriptive results show that reliability and validity of data was a top concern while the open-ended qualitative feedback revealed three primary themes: (1) acceptability and trust in technology; (2) ease of use; and (3) support and guidelines. Results provide an opening to use core HSMS elements (i.e., management commitment and leadership, communication and coordination, and employee involvement) during DRST integration to demonstrate support for workers during times of ambiguity and change.
