Submission and validation
Authors submit manuscript files, metadata, declarations and required supporting information through the AHFE journal platform. The system validates completeness before the manuscript advances.
Editorial assessment and peer review
Editors assess scope, suitability, integrity and scientific presentation before arranging independent peer review. Reviewers provide evidence-based comments intended to help editors reach a fair decision and authors improve the work.
Decision, production and publication
Following revision and editorial decision, accepted manuscripts proceed through production and proof stages before publication. Workflow actions and communications are retained in the platform for accountability.
