Knowledge Management and Sustainable Earthquake Awareness in Aydın Efeler OIZ

Öz

This study investigates the relationship between knowledge management processes and sustainable earthquake awareness among enterprises operating in the Aydın Efeler Organized Industrial Zone (OIZ), Türkiye. Although knowledge management is considered a strategic capability that supports organizational resilience and crisis management, empirical evidence regarding its contribution to sustainable earthquake awareness remains limited. Using a quantitative research design, data were collected through face-to-face questionnaires administered to senior managers from all 45 enterprises operating in the OIZ. Knowledge management was examined through knowledge acquisition, storage, sharing, and utilization dimensions, while sustainable earthquake awareness was evaluated through organizational preparedness, knowledge and learning, and institutional sustainability dimensions. The data were analyzed using SPSS, and non-parametric statistical methods, including Spearman correlation, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney U tests, were applied. The findings indicated no statistically significant relationship between knowledge management processes and sustainable earthquake awareness. However, sustainable earthquake awareness differed significantly according to enterprises’ operating period, with long-established enterprises demonstrating higher awareness levels. No significant differences were found regarding workforce size or budget allocated to earthquake awareness. The results suggest that sustainable earthquake awareness is shaped by organizational experience, institutional memory, and long-term learning processes in addition to formal knowledge management practices.
