This study is designed to pinpoint critical factors in occupational accidents, so that the knowledge gained can be used to reduce losses, injuries and fatalities. The data were collected from the Northern Region Inspection Office of the Council of Labor Affairs. The occupational accident cases were used to perform the critical factor classification. This study uses the grey relational analysis of the grey systematic theory. With the first six of the critical factors compiled from the accident database as impact factors, the total grey relationship is then calculated and the interdependence relationship among the critical factors is established. After analyzing the mutual relationship, the critical factors, ranked by importance, are found to be lack of safety management arrangements, insufficient safety and health management staff, inadequate education and training, lack of self-inspection programs, absence of work rules or procedures, and lack of awareness of potential hazards. These results coincide with the real critical factors of occupational accidents. Furthermore, the methodology presented in this study can be applied to address the important issues of occupational safety and health management systems. |
