Abstract:
OCCUPATIONAL APPLICATIONSOccupational hazards and work-related accidents are a substantial problem in countries around the world. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop appropriate techniques to assess and reduce the risk of occupational hazards. In many situations, however, exact data are inadequate to model real-life scenarios, because of the complexity of occupational health and safety (OHS) risk assessment problems. We present a new OHS risk assessment model to assess and rank the risk of occupational hazards based on combination weighting and uncertain linguistic information. Moreover, a practical example of a shopping mall construction project is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. The new model was found to provide a useful, practical, and flexible way for risk evaluation in OHS. In particular, it offered a new method for capturing domain expert opinions and prioritizing potential occupational hazards to improve the health and safety of workers.
