The Development of Fuzzy-based Expert System for Analyzing Occupational Stress

This paper illustrates the process of developing and configuring the prototype computer-assisted analysis system named as Work-Expert for analyzing occupational stress. A Work-Expert was developed to allow the nonexperts or line manager to utilize the existing knowledge in the area of occupational stress estimation, and to provide intelligent and computer-aided problem solving. The purpose of the system development is for future prediction and problem solving. Creating preventive measures, such as early detection of stress, proper placement and promotion of employees, job enlargement, employee identification, employee involvement, communication, and training of managers will be possible by using this system effectively.
