Industry 4.0—Frontiers of fourth industrial revolution

Intelligent manufacturing execution systems: A systematic review

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the perceptions of construction professionals relative to factors that affect the delivery of optimum health and safety (H&S) on construction projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted a quantitative design which entailed the distribution of a web-based questionnaire among construction professionals, namely, architects, construction/project managers, engineers, H&S managers and quantity surveyors working for contractors and construction consultants in Zimbabwe. The data were analysed with descriptive and inferential statistics. Factor analysis was used to reveal interrelated significant sets of factors affecting the delivery of optimum H&S. Findings Factor analysis revealed nine components/factors: change and innovation-related, monitoring and enforcement-related, production-related, access to information and health service-related, on-site facilities and welfare-related, risk assessment and mitigation-related, job security and funding-related, cost-related and COVID-19 risk perception-related factors as the significant factors affecting the delivery of optimum H&S during the COVID-19 pandemic in Zimbabwe. Research limitations/implications The results highlighted the need for social dialogue among construction stakeholders to support initiatives that will enhance the delivery of H&S on construction projects. Construction stakeholders may find the results useful in highlighting the areas that need improvement to protect workers' H&S during the pandemic. However, the small sample limits the generalisability of the results to construction sectors in other regions. Originality/value The study investigated factors affecting the delivery of optimum H&S during the COVID-19 to inform interventions to enhance H&S.

Factors affecting the delivery of optimum health and safety on construction projects during the covid-19 pandemic in Zimbabwe

Intelligent knowledge-based system to improve injection molding process

Safety management determines and implements safety policy It is closely intertwined with industrial development As the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Industry 40 presents new challenges and opportunities for safety management The paper identifies three stages, namely, Safety 10, Safety 20 and Safety 30, for the evolution of safety management by considering safety principles, technologies and modes A theoretical framework that integrates Safety 30 and Industry 40 is presented Furthermore, knowledge graphs are developed with Citespace to explore the status of cross‐topic research on safety management and Industry 40 Potential opportunities for integrating Safety 30 and Industry 40 are discussed
