Abstract

Aged care workforces are particularly vulnerable to psychosocial hazards due to the physically and emotionally demanding nature of caregiving. The Kaizen approach, a continuous improvement methodology rooted in lean management, offers a structured way to enhance worker well-being while maintaining high-quality care for aged individuals. This research explores the integration of Kaizen principles into aged care settings to mitigate psychosocial hazards, improve workforce efficiency, and foster a culture of continuous improvement. By examining existing literature and case studies, the study provides evidence-based recommendations for optimizing aged care work environments.
