PRIORITIZING A NEW SET OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ACTIVITIES WITH FUZZY TOPSIS METHOD

Year 2020, Volume: 25 Issue: 1, 341 - 360, 30.04.2020

Abstract

Environmental Management System (EMS) studies conducted today are activities where
enterprises plan, implement, control and monitor measures related to their activities that can impact the
environment, and systematically and sustainably carry out activities aimed at preserving the environment.
Given the limited resources of enterprises such as workforce, money, time, machinery and equipment, it is
important for enterprises to prioritize their activities so that EMS’s work effectively. In this study, a list of
environmental activities was primarily established with the aim of determining the EMS activities to be
undertaken by enterprises or evaluating existing environmental activities. An approach for determining
prioritized activities was developed from the created activity list according to the evaluation criteria
appropriate to the operating conditions of enterprises.

Abstract

 Günümüzde yürütülen çevre yönetim sistemi (ÇMS) çalışmaları, işletmelerin çevreyi etkileyebilecek
faaliyetleriyle ilgili önlemlerini planladığı, uyguladığı, kontrol ettiği ve izlediği, sistemli ve sürdürülebilir
bir şekilde çevreyi korumaya yönelik faaliyetlerini gerçekleştirdikleri çalışmalardır. İşletmelerin iş gücü,
para, zaman, makine-ekipman gibi kısıtlı kaynakları göz önünde bulundurulduğunda çevre yönetim sistemi
çalışmalarını etkin yürütebilmek için hangi faaliyetlerin önceliklendirilmesi gerekliliği önemli olmaktadır.
Bu çalışmada öncelikli olarak, işletmelerin kuracakları çevre yönetim sistemi faaliyetlerini belirleme veya
mevcut çevresel faaliyetlerini gözden geçirme amacı ile bir çevresel faaliyet listesi oluşturulmuştur.
Oluşturulan faaliyet listesinden, işletme koşullarına uygun değerlendirme kriterlerine göre öncelikli
faaliyetlerin belirlenmesi konusunda bir yaklaşım geliştirilmiştir.
