The Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) has been widely studied in recent decades. Various approaches have been proposed to support scheduling decisions according to the evolving production environment. The emergence of technological advancements in the context of Industry 4.0 has brought many changes and made production scheduling more and more efficient. Today’s Industry 5.0 environment pays much attention to human considerations, sustainability, and resilience. These modern production environments can be accurately represented by the flexible shop floor scheduling problem in which various coordinating machines (with many alternative routing possibilities) and different operators are challenging. Recent literature on JSSP, which considers the human in the loop, has shown that the well-being and skills of workers significantly affect scheduling performance. In addition, knowing that industries are responsible for a significant part of the world’s energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, new studies in scheduling focus on environmental factors. This paper introduces the Sustainable Flexible Scheduling Problem (SFJSSP) as a human and energy-efficiency-centered scheduling problem. First, we review the last decade’s literature on Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problems (FJSSP) with human and/or environmental considerations. Next, we analyze the development trends in manufacturing scheduling problems. Finally, we discuss future research challenges to move towards scheduling 5.0 and suggest a mathematical model that considers human and environmental factors (in addition to the factors considered by the Classical Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (CFJSSP)).
