Abstract: |
Sustainability
is an important topic in production planning and control. This article
contributes in particular to further research on the social dimension. It
presents a linear optimisation model for Master Production Scheduling in
order to improve human working conditions. Existing approaches have already
identified a considerable potential for improvements. Furthermore, this
article analyses the influence of the company size on workload and costs using
an application with a high proportion of manual activities. It is
demonstrated that human working conditions can be improved independently from
the company size without increasing costs. In addition, smaller companies tend
to have a higher exhaustion and the workload affects the total costs more in
smaller companies. Therefore, smaller companies might benefit more from an
improvement in human working conditions. |
