SELECTION OF AN APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT USING THE ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS

Abstract

The main principles of safety risk reduction are elimination, substitution, and engineering controls. Hazardous conditions, safe work practices, and other forms of managerial controls should be provided for a safe work environment. For this reason, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is inevitable for employees. PPE can help mitigate accidents and injuries associated with hazardous materials or other potentially unsafe working conditions. Thus, the selection of a suitable PPE is a significant step in a safe working environment. PPE selection process is complex and involves multiple criteria decision making since several parameters affect PPE selection. In this study, factors affecting PPE selection were determined as Safety Features, Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support. In the present study, a systematic methodology to select an appropriate PPE was performed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results indicate that Safety Features main criterion is the most significant factor, followed by Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support main criteria, respectively.

ANALİTİK HİYERARŞİ PROSESİ METODU İLE UYGUN KİŞİSEL KORUYUCU EKİPMAN SEÇİMİ

Öz

Emniyet riskinin azaltılmasının ana ilkeleri eleme, ikame ve mühendislik kontrolleridir. Güvenli çalışma ortamını sağlamak için tehlikeli koşullar, güvenli çalışma uygulamaları ve diğer yönetimsel kontrol biçimleri gözden geçirilmelidir. Bu nedenle çalışanlar için kişisel koruyucu ekipman (KKD) kullanımı kaçınılmazdır. KKD, tehlikeli maddelerle veya diğer potansiyel olarak güvenli olmayan çalışma koşullarıyla ilişkili kazaları ve yaralanmaları azaltmaya yardımcı olabilir. Bu nedenle, uygun bir KKD'nin seçimi, güvenli bir çalışma ortamında önemli bir adımdır. KKD seçim süreci karmaşıktır ve çeşitli parametreler KKD seçimini etkilediği için birden çok kriterli karar vermeyi içerir. Bu çalışmada KKD seçimini etkileyen faktörler; Güvenlik Özellikleri, Konfor ve Verimlilik, Tasarım İlkeleri ve Müşteri Desteği olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada, Analitik Hiyerarşi Prosesi (AHP) kullanılarak uygun bir KKD seçmek için sistematik bir metodoloji uygulanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları, Güvenlik Özellikleri ana kriterinin en önemli faktör olduğunu ve bunu sırasıyla Konfor ve Verimlilik, Tasarım İlkeleri ve Müşteri Desteği ana kriterlerinin izlediğini göstermektedir.
