Lean Manufacturing Management for Occupational Health and Safety in Industrial Engineering Laboratories
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT: Managing Lean Manufacturing enhances occupational safety and health in the industrial engineering laboratory. Objective: To determine the effects of safety and Lean techniques. Methodology: A pre-experimental design was applied, with a non-probabilistic sample of Peruvian small and medium-sized metalworking enterprises selected by the Machine Tools Laboratory (LMH) – UNMSM, using parametric tests and the Wilcoxon test. Results: Lean manufacturing improves occupational safety and health management in the LMH; additionally, as the months from January to July 2025 of the academic cycles progressed, standard procedures decreased (expressed by an adjusted slope of −0.0532), as required by standardization, showing a lower slope than preventive measures. Conclusions/Contributions: Safety and Lean techniques make it possible to achieve competitive advantages and reduce occupational losses. Keywords: Management, lean manufacturing, occupational health, laboratories
