Prediction of Unsafe Factors for Industrial Accident Prevention
재해예방을 위한 사업장 불안전 요인의 유형 예측
Abstract
It is quite similar in the current automated works likewise in the past manual works that single trivial human error and/or unsafe acts may lead to serious industrial accidents. Though the traditional approach for accident prevention focused on the serious injuries or losses, that was misleaded by failure of accident perception. As Heinrich pointed out, there are still enormous numbers of unsafe acts or near-misses before a real accident happen. Thus, for industrial accident prevention, a research on unsafe acts was committed. With accident data occurred during the last decade, statistics were analyzed for extracting behavioral characteristics. After that, a practical method Integrating AHP and statistics which shows possible accident factors and their priority at an individual factory was suggested. A computer program was developed also.
