A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MATURITY MODELS: DEVELOPING A FRAMEWORK FOR AUTOMOTIVE GARAGE ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract
This systematic literature review develops a comprehensive Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) maturity framework specifically designed for automotive garage environments. Through analysis of existing literature and industry-specific requirements, the study identifies four critical dimensions of safety maturity: technical safety management, workforce development, operational systems, and environmental control. The resulting framework, presented through three integrated tables, provides structured progression pathways across five maturity levels, from initial to innovative stages. The framework includes detailed assessment criteria and implementation guidelines, addressing a significant gap in practical safety management tools for garage operations. The study contributes to both theoretical understanding and practical application of safety management in automotive environments, particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises. While acknowledging limitations regarding empirical validation, the framework establishes a foundation for future research and practical application in garage safety management. The structured approach offers organizations valuable tools for enhancing safety performance while maintaining flexibility for adaptation to emerging automotive technologies and service requirements.
