“…The development of industrial production led to the launching of a consumer economy. The need to switch to the "Circular economy" leads to increased attention to the formation of a balanced policy for all resources [27], [28], [29].…”
The authors propose the evaluation of the level of development of waste management and the factors associated with effectiveness of waste management in the world. Scientific novelty consists in new principle of the selection of factors. This principle based on the balance between the rate of waste generation and the efficiency of utilization, depending on income level in the countries. As a result, the factors affecting the effectiveness of waste management selected and classified by the method of expert evaluation. The algorithms has been proposed for calculate of the indicators of the intensity of waste generation, of the efficiency of utilization, of the balance of waste, of the overall efficiency of waste management. The evaluation of the effectiveness of waste management was applied by method of score of 217 countries of the world for 2018. The study found a correlation between the effectiveness of waste management and the country's per capita income. This evaluation allows classifying countries on the level of per capita income and by the types of balance between the intensity of waste generation and the efficiency of waste utilization. On this basis the authors proposed to form a balanced policy of waste management.

“…Finally, in [69] and [25] it is stated that there is a lack in the literature regarding empirical evidence of practical implementation of the combined lean-green approach. In order to fill this gap, among the 21 (46.6%) articles proposing strategies for implementing the lean-green combination, 9 (20%) have report results obtained by the lean-green implementation within real manufacturing scenarios from different countries all over the world, such as, construction projects [63], metal stamped parts production [69], Swedish industry [72], food industry [27], part production in the automotive sector [74], Chinese Fashion AutoParts industry [78] and SME foundry [105]. In [95], authors go even further, presenting the results obtained by implementing the proposed lean-green approach in different companies, with different sizes and operating in a different business area, giving researchers in the field benchmark data allowing them to expand their approaches to other companies and manufacturing sectors.…”

The current rapidly changing and highly competitive market has put companies under a great pressure not only to be successful, but also to sustain their success into the future. In addition, in recent years, companies have become more aware of the fact that it is no longer enough to take care of economic aspects, being crucial to also take care of environmental and social aspects in order to actually succeed and lead in the current and future markets. In this context, companies are urged to move towards more innovative manufacturing practices that maintain a healthy balance among economic, environmental and social performances, which are the three pillars of the sustainability performance. To give some insight into this issue, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is conducted in this paper regarding the current trends in the field, doing special focus on the link between lean-green manufacturing and the different sustainability aspects. The SLR concluded that lean and green implementations as stand-alone systems are usually not enough to ensure the required balance between the three pillars of sustainability, suggesting further combining them into a single approach. Researchers expect to achieve further improvements in the sustainability performance moving towards the next level of sustainability.
“…Waste incurred as a function of business practices was listed among the global sustainability issues [147]. Cobra et al, (2015) showed waste as the common gene of lean and cleaner production [26]. Moreover, Moreira et al, (2010) concluded that production wastes could be one of the major causes of environmental wastes and pointed out the potential of lean as a solution to this problem [161].…”

“…TPS was a product of forced innovative thinking to find a solution to resource scarcity and financial turmoil [25]. It started to become quite popular in the Western world at the beginning of 1990s, after James Womack published his breakthrough book titled "The Machine That Changed the World [26]." Since then, "lean philosophy" has been proven to be a useful and popular approach available to any organization that seeks a way to improve efficiency, effectiveness, and, thus, profitability in any sector, including the service industry.…”
Global trends and factors, such as the increased level of globalization, climate change, resource scarcity, and awareness of social and environmental responsibilities, as well as fiercer competition and lower profit margins in all industries, force organizations to act to retain, regain, or sustain their competitive advantages for long-term survival. These trends and factors are historically known to bring about innovations that drive the evolution of industries. Sustainability is considered to be such an innovation to achieve fiscally sound, environmentally conscious, and socially progressive organizations and supply chains. This study reviewed 477 past articles published in five major databases from 1990 to 2018. The purpose of the study was to assess the current state-of-the art in the subject of lean-driven sustainability. Based on the exhaustive descriptive and contextual analysis, synergies, divergences, and the extent of two-way permeability of lean and sustainability concepts from the perspective of intra-and inter-organizational operations were identified along with future research opportunities. Fundamental strengths and weaknesses of both concepts, existing strong synergies and untapped potential, along with their key contributors, the potential-use cases of lean tools to derive sustainable solutions are highlighted in this review.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
