Hazard analysis as one of the main study subjects in ergonomics and occupational health and safety (OHS) risk assessment is a critical requirement for ensuring the health and safety of workers in work environments. Current hazard analysis approaches in the literature may have some shortcomings. This study aims to provide more reliable assessments in the hazard analysis process by overcoming the shortcomings of classical approaches.
This study proposes a new hazard analysis approach based on the integration of the Fermatean Fuzzy set and the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method MOORA.
The proposed approach is used to perform a hazard analysis of a company operating in the metal industry, which is one of the sectors where occupational accidents and occupational diseases most often occur. As a result of the application, the hazards and associated risks in the aluminum metal company are prioritized.
This study provides an advanced risk assessment technique for ergonomists and OHS professionals to make better decisions in hazard analysis studies.
