This study sought to determine the efficacy of applying lean management (LM) principles by measuring the efforts made in application, then comparing these efforts with the perceived effectiveness of the application process from the employees' point of view in the Jordan Electricity Distribution Company (EDCO). The current study deals with the main principles of LM: customer focus, standardisation, waste elimination, workflow and continuous improvement. Descriptive analysis was used for the data collected from 234 randomly selected employees using a questionnaire. The results indicate that the effectiveness of LM principles ranged from mid to high in all of the company's branches. There is also a gap between the efforts made and application effectiveness; the achieved effectiveness is less than the invested efforts, which indicates wasted resources.

The World Health Organization (WHO) identified healthcare waste as highly infectious and threatening the environment and human health. India's current healthcare waste management system has certain limitations, which lead to ineffective waste handling practices. So, proper healthcare waste treatment is becoming mandatory for the environment and safety. Healthcare waste management (HCWM) requires efficient collection and segregation of waste for proper disposal. The paper approaches the healthcare sector's issues and challenges in treating and managing healthcare waste. Interpretive structural modelling (ISM) was used to find the design requirements, which were transferred to QFD for prioritising. Results from ISM and QFD indicated that government support and policies, awareness, training and workshops, high priority to waste management issues, and support of top authorities have significant implications on people and society. This analysis will provide a result that will help the stakeholders implement healthcare waste management.
