Author Guidelines

General Writing Guidelines

Manuscripts submitted to INDUSTRIA: Journal of Industrial Engineering UHAFIZ must be original works, have not been previously published, and are not under consideration by other journals. For multi-authored manuscripts, the corresponding author is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors have approved the submitted version and any subsequent revisions.

Research involving human participants, organizations, or industrial stakeholders must comply with applicable ethical standards. Authors are required to disclose any potential conflicts of interest, funding sources, or institutional support at the end of the manuscript.

Review Process

All submitted manuscripts will undergo an initial screening by the Editor. Manuscripts that meet the journal’s scope and basic requirements will be reviewed by at least two independent reviewers with relevant expertise in industrial engineering or related fields. Editorial decisions are based on reviewers’ recommendations and may include:

Accepted without revision
Accepted with minor revision
Accepted with major revision
Rejected

Authors are given the opportunity to revise their manuscripts according to reviewers’ comments. Final decisions will be communicated to the corresponding author.
