Abstract: This paper aims to evaluate the current state of the art in using Manufacturing Digitisation for Safety management issues. A bibliometric and systematic review was done to increase the relationship between manufacturing digitisation and safety issues, also understand how digitisation technologies can support safety issues, and how we should take paths towards improvements in safety management in manufacturing processes enabled by these digitisation technologies. The findings highlight that the changes brought by the development of these technologies are an opportunity and support for reliability and safety management. In recent years, digitisation has been developed to support workers during normal operations and emergencies and to improve their abilities to control safety levels, but at the same time it can expose humans to a more dangerous situation. The results provide the necessary information to decision-makers, researchers and prevention professionals on the challenges and opportunities for safety fields related to digitisation in manufacturing processes.
