Analyzing and prioritization of HSE performance evaluation measures utilizing Fuzzy ANP (Case studies: Iran Khodro and Tabriz Petrochemical)

Today, HSE (health, safety, and environment) systems play a vital role in green and sustainable aspects of the companies. However, performance evaluation of HSE systems is a crucial issue in industry and academia. This paper tries to identify and prioritize the effective factors in HSE performance in Iran Khodro (the largest automotive company in Iran) and Tabriz Petrochemical (one of the biggest Iranian petrochemical company). The factors are achieved through the literature and recent publications and then they are customized by the expert's opinions. Finally, a hybrid Fuzzy DEMATEL ANP approach is developed for prioritization of the factors. Indeed, Fuzzy DEMATEL is used in order to determine the relations among factors and sub factors and to help in providing ANP super matrix. Afterward, the Fuzzy ANP is proposed to find the final weights of the factors and sub factors. The weights are used in order to prioritize the factors for two selected companies.
