The proposed approach has been customized and apply in the case of a lean production system in order to demonstrate its efficiency and effectiveness. The research approach and its associated methodology consists of three stages: (1) a qualitative research using the Grounded Theory, which provide a theoretical model on the the employees behavior within the analyzed lean production system; (2) a quantitative research, survey based on a designed questionnaire, for the investigation of the motivation – satisfaction relation; (3) a quantitative research for the ergonomic risk assessment associated with repetitive upper limb movements (that are dominant in the case of the assembly line that has been studied) using the OCRA method for the improvement of the workers stress. The research results contribute to the knowledge development and to the the diminishing of the occupational...

The ontology has created the possibility to characterize the potential work accidents and/or diseases, and better decide for an appropriate preventive, corrective measure (risk management). The ontology content allows the classification of all the concepts used in the health and safety risk evaluation process (risk characterization, impact, health problems, measures etc.). In addition, important relationships between that concepts and classes have been considered for the OnRisk web platform design and development. The platform will support companies' occupational health and safety management and their processes toward sustainability.

Organizing and managing an enterprise involves also, risk mitigation, and the risk should be managed according to the enterprise internal and external environment dynamics. Based on enterprise environment constrains and the European priorities in the field of occupational health and safety, the paper presents a framework for the risk management. The framework structure takes into consideration ISO 31000 requirements that is centered on the risk management, but also some additional elements. Finally, in the paper is presented a framework model for the risk management, being shown the ins and outs of the redesign risk assessment system.
