Özet

The objective of this study is to enhance a novel ergonomics risk assessment tool for workers in maritime port operations by implementing and validating two innovative methodologies, namely, the FUCOM and ARTASI methods. The integration of the Fine-Kinney method and spherical fuzzy sets into these methods provides a detailed understanding of the risks of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in various port operations. The primary findings demonstrate the efficacy of FUCOM and ARTASI in evaluating risk magnitudes for diverse health factors, offering valuable insights for risk classification and proposing effective control measures. The study's findings indicate that the top five most significant hazards are ERG6 (Heavy lifting, pulling, pushing, stacking), ERG2 (Lashing and unlashing operations), ERG12 (Working long hours or on shifts), ERG1 (Poor posture/awkward postures), and ERG10 (Work-related stress). The study underscores the necessity for future research to enhance knowledge in this domain, thereby facilitating a more profound comprehension of occupational risk areas and the strategies implemented by occupational health and safety (OHS) management systems in the port environment in an integrated manner.
