The motivation of the study comes from the real-world instance of a plastic injection plant at Vestel Electronics. The plastic injection plant requires plastic injection molds at the planner's disposal, in order to produce variations of products, by the compatible plastic injection machines. The variations on the molds and the mold changes on the machines bring out sequence dependent major and minor setups. Since each machine requires an operator, we have extended the formulation with workforce and shift planning Results show that proposed heuristic yields comparable solutions to that of exact model for small and medium size instances; and provides schedules for the large size instances, for which exact model cannot find a feasible solution in the allotted time.engopenAccessconferenceObject52131931193600050428240032810.1016/j.ifacol.2019.11.485Simultaneous lot sizing and schedulingDecomposition heuristicsSequence dependent setupsSecondary resourcesWorkforce planningShift planning2-s2.0-85078871618
