Abstract
This study analyzed the integration of human resource management in the industry 4.0 era by applying Lean and Agile principles to enhance organizational efficiency. The analysis covered five dimensions: Quality, Flexibility, Cost, Time, and Sustainability. The literature review indicated that flexibility was the most influential factor, accounting for 33.67%. Although quality and sustainability had smaller proportions, they remained vital for competitive advantage. The connection between Industry 4.0 and Agile approaches was 69.39%, reflecting organizations’ ability to reduce waste and increase adaptability. Key components of HR management in this context included (1) Human Resource Development through training and digital tools, (2) Performance Management with precise evaluation, (3) Recruitment and Selection via AI and automation, (4) Organizational Culture emphasizing collaboration and learning, (5) Diversity Management to foster creativity, and (6) Data-Driven Decision Making to adjust HR strategies. In conclusion, integrating Lean and Agile concepts into HR management helps organizations meet Industry 4.0 challenges by developing adaptable, sustainable human resources that enhance competitiveness. These approaches provide a flexible structure, reduce waste, and improve responsiveness to technological and market change.
