N2  - The concept of risk has become increasingly important with the economic and technologic advances on the 1920s. A systematized control of risks is possible only through a thorough risk management policy. Risk assessment forms one of the essential and highly critical steps of the risk management. In recent years, accident rates in construction companies in Turkey have visibly increased with the expansion of the construction industry in Turkey. In this study, risk assessment is done for a construction company, starting from the first step. With a thorough risk assessment, the aim is to reduce the number of the accidents caused by hazards to the minimum by specifying and reducing possible hazards in the construction area.                                  An integrated model which consists of two methods is suggested for the risk assessment. This model consists of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Quality Function Deployment (QFD) methods. Primarily, in FMEA, risk priority indexes (RPI) are determined and the hazard types are ordered. Moreover, in FMEA, preventive measures for the hazard types are determined. Later, with Pareto Analysis, the most important hazard types corresponding to first %25 are added to QFD method. With QFD, relationships between the preventive measures and most important hazard types are specified. Afterwards, the preventive measures are ordered according to their importance levels to prevent most of the hazard types. The ideas of the managers working in the construction company are utilized in the setup of both FMEA and QFD. In this way, the risk assessment is done using FMEA and QFD methods in an integrated way. The ordering of the preventive measures to be taken is performed in this risk assessment.
