Abstract

The need for sustainable development has been widely recognized as important by governments, as well as by enterprises, and has become a popular topic in various disciplines, including ergonomics and industrial engineering. Sustainable development can only be achieved if impacts on current and future generations of humans are focused according to the three dimensions of sustainability (environment, social and economic). The paper presents a system-of-systems approach to sustainable production planning and controlling in manufacturing enterprises. The results of the paper can be used as a basis to support and improve the outcome of such process discussions with company managers, experts, and employees’ representatives.
