Abstract

Purpose

This systematic review of the current gender inequality issues in operations and supply chain management (OSCM) seeks to illuminate the multifaceted aspects of this issue and their various implications for the field.

Design/methodology/approach

Employing systematic literature review and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Literature Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) methodologies, this research delves into an analysis of 238 journal articles spanning a 47-year period. The objective is to discern existing voids and put forth actionable suggestions that align with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal Number 5 (SDG5) in the context of men and women, which pertains to realizing gender equality and empowering girls and women.

Findings

The results show a significant increase in published articles over the period. However, only five literature review articles were found that specifically address gender inequality in OSCM. The five common themes impacting gender inequality in this field are gender issues, mindset, transportation disparities, human resources and gender roles in OSCM, alongside sustainability, mobility and government policy intersections. The paper emphasizes the need for further research on these themes. It also suggests implications for educators, researchers, companies, OSCM departments and policymakers to achieve SDG5.

Originality/value

This study offers valuable insights by comprehensively reviewing and systematically analyzing the prevailing gender inequality issues within OSCM. It accentuates the significance of gender equality in OSCM, augmenting the burgeoning discourse and catalyzing concerted endeavors for gender equality.

在运营和供应链管理中实现性别平等:系统回顾、研究主题和未来方向
本研究采用系统文献综述和系统文献综述与元分析首选报告项目(PRISMA)方法,深入分析了 238 篇期刊文章,时间跨度长达 47 年。研究结果表明,在此期间发表的文章显著增加。然而,仅有五篇文献综述文章专门论述了 OSCM 中的性别不平等问题。影响该领域性别不平等的五个共同主题是:性别问题、思维方式、交通差异、人力资源和 OSCM 中的性别角色,以及可持续性、流动性和政府政策交叉。本文强调了进一步研究这些主题的必要性。本研究通过全面回顾和系统分析 OSCM 中普遍存在的性别不平等问题,提出了宝贵的见解。它强调了性别平等在职业安全与健康管理中的重要意义,加强了对性别平等的讨论,促进了性别平等方面的协同努力。
