A Theoretical Framework to ISO 45001:2018 OHS Management System: The Improvement of Its Application Steps by Quality Circles
Öz
ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety management systems operate their processes by taking employee participation of its center. A systematic and strategic improvement can be achieved for ISO 45001:2018 through quality circles approach by spreading managerial activities throughout the enterprise and integrating into the implementation steps. In this study, to improve and facilitate ISO 45001:2018 implementation steps, a new process proposal was conducted to ensure this integration and critical success factors of it were determined. The relative importance weights of these determined critical points were calculated with the fuzzy extension of the Analytic Hierarchy Process. Planning and regular checking of results were determined as the most important main and sub-key factors, respectively. The main contribution to the literature of this paper is to transform ISO 45001:2018's unique application phases into a holistic problem-solving approach using quality circles. As a result, both worker participation and the safety culture that ISO 45001:2018 aims to promote has been able to permeate across the organization. The secondary contribution of this study is determining which process steps to prioritize to achieve success quickly and securely and doing so with an analytical approach.
