“…dissemination of work ethic is narrow [15]. In connection to the results, presented in this paper we achieved interesting new knowledge in the area of human-cobot channels communication, identification of self-optimizing potentials by human, motion planning and job coordination as by safety, maintenance and ethical workplace standard diagnose [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

Stabile production processes are oriented on flexible production process; they enable implementation of digitized concepts in real production technologies. The presented chapter describes research results oriented on actual state mapping in selected industrial companies, with core orientation of people engagement in core processes connected with production digitization. Quantitative and qualitative research by selected industrial companies was realized in combination with hypothesis testing and verification. Core research problem of the presented chapter is the compatibility between employee and cobot by workplace from the ethical point of view. Based on analyze of selected workplaces in industrial companies were identified crucial decisive parameters of effective cooperation between human and cobot with subsequent formulation of conclusions for setting the rules of ethical mutual cooperation "human-robot" by production workplace. Radical innovations in industrial companies connected with the integration of cobot technologies in the production processes are strongly connected with the aim, to give the stability in the mutual connection between employee and cobot. A model of standardized cooperation between human and cobot will be presented; it is based on the key elements of the standardization process. This is a new point of view on the ethics of the workplace, where the "human-machine" cooperation replaces the cooperation model "human-cobot."

“…It is also important to emphasize the growing tendency to focus the DFLP analysis on more powerful resolution algorithms applied in fictitious problems or classic test problems that do not respond to real-world case studies. Conversely, the following works have addressed the problem in several industries: Footwear [59]; textile [67]; metalworking [69]; construction [21]. Table 3.…”

“…In this vein, some authors considered satisfying the minimum safety distance requirements between departments to avoid workers' exposure to safety/occupational health risk factors, such as noise, heat, or vibrations [41,51], while others considered designing waste disposal routes or reducing the associated risks in handling hazardous materials [63]. Another significant contribution was to contemplate a synthetic index to evaluate the physical and psychological loads to which the workers could be exposed in different layout scenarios, apart from their working posture and the level of difficulty to perform tasks [69].…”

The facility layout design problem is significantly relevant within the business operations strategies framework and has emerged as an alternate strategy towards supply chain sustainability. However, its wide coverage in the scientific literature has focused mainly on the static planning approach and disregarded the dynamic approach, which is very useful in real-world applications. In this context, the present article offers a literature review of the dynamic facility layout problem (DFLP). First, a taxonomy of the reviewed papers is proposed based on the problem formulation current trends (related to the problem type, planning phase, planning approach, number of facilities, number of floors, number of departments, space consideration, department shape, department dimensions, department area, and materials handling configuration); the mathematical modeling approach (regarding the type of model, type of objective function, type of constraints, nature of market demand, type of data, and distance metric), and the considered solution approach. Then, the extent to which recent research into DFLP has contributed to supply chain sustainability by addressing its three performance dimensions (economic, environmental, social) is described. Finally, some future research guidelines are provided.

“…Much of the related research has been carried out in developed countries, such as Europe and the USA, etc., and mainly for metal fabrication activities, but Ahmad and Wong developed weighted and comprehensive sustainability indicators (environmental, economic and social) for the food manufacturing industry in Malaysia [13]. In another investigation, a mathematical model was designed to find the best solution that combines safety, sustainability, high efficiency and low cost for an artificial bee colony [14].…”

Novel Ergonomic Triad Model to Calculate a Sustainable Work Index for the Manufacturing Industry

The human factor is becoming increasingly relevant for its role in industrial development; therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the machine–man–environment system in an integrated and not isolated way, as is commonly done, for evaluating the sustainability performance of manufacturing practices. For this reason, in this paper, an ergonomic triad model is proposed for calculating a novel Sustainable Work Index, (SWI), made up of the factors: human work, workstation design, organizational environment and sustainable environmental conditions. The methodology consists of defining the productive time, interviewing the workers, taking anthropometric measurements, assessing the environmental conditions, obtaining the indicators for each factor, calculating the index and interpreting the results to define improvement actions. The model was applied to a manufacturing industry obtaining a regular status with an index of 63.6%. Improvement actions were implemented, and it was possible to increase the index to 73.9%, which represents a good commitment of the company towards occupational health. The development of the new triad model to calculate the SWI will allow industries to visualize indicators of the interaction of the ergonomic triad, identify its current condition and propose actions to physically, organizationally and environmentally improve human well-being and system performance.
