1. Problem Description
With the rapid development of International economy, the situation of safety and
production has led to an increasing number of serious problems. A variety of major
accidents occur frequently. In the professional activities of the industry, the number
of patients with diseases caused by exposure to dust, noise, radioactive materials,
other toxic and harmful substances, and other factors has gradually increased
Occupational safety and health legislation was increased, increasing in turn the
number of strict requirements on safety for enterprises and introducing a large
number of safety regulations. The occupational disease prevention law was
revised, which put forward mandatory regulatory requirements and standards for
safety and health. People oriented and paying attention to employee health and
safety has increasingly become an important symbol and a good image of modern
enterprises, which is also the focus of the occupational health and safety
management system OHSAS18001
2. Related Work
In this section, we try to provide an idea about the basics concepts of risk
management based on the literature review. This includes a generic definition of
risk, risks management and their method.
The risk
The meaning of risk can be differed from one person to another depending on
their point of views, attitudes and experience what makes the study of risk more and
more complex. For Mazouni, the risk is an intrinsic property of any decision, it is
measured by a combination of several factors (severity, occurrence, exposure to,
etc.), although it is generally limited to two factors: severity and frequency of
occurrence of a potentially damaging accident that incorporate some exposure
factors.

Fmea
FMEA is an efficient tool for identifying the potential failure modes and their
effects in order to increase the reliability and safety of complex systems and
gathering the data that is necessary to decide about how to manage risks. In fact, the
purpose of this technique is to identify failure modes and their effects and corrective
actions to eliminate or reduce the probability of failure (redesign) and finally the
development of efficient maintenance system, to reduce the occurrence of potential
scenarios (Kmenta 2000; Hojjatnejad 2008; Sedagat 2008; Narayanagounder
2009; Bolbolamiri 2010; Bahrami 2012).
Unlike some other hazard identification techniques, use of the FMEA is based
on statistics and requires enough time and manpower. Without information about the
process or product, FMEA, instead relying on facts and reality will be converted to
a process based on suspicions. FMEA methodology also refers to the principles of
control and prevention of defects (Ebrahimipour 2009; Namdari. 2010).
AHP Model
Hastak and Shaked (2000) deploy AHP within a framework for assessing
international construction projects, with risk modeled as P-I. Although the model
provides an assessment of project risk level, we believe that the assessment
methodology is rather simplistic. Additionally, the combined assessment of risk
probability and impact using a score on a predetermined scale of 0100 is a concern.
A DSS for managing risk in the early stages of a construction project is proposed by
Dey (2001) based on AHP and decision trees. It seeks to identify the best strategy,
project scenario, for managing construction project risk through the expected
monetary value (EMV) of each risk response strategy. The approach, however, does
not quantify the impact of any risk; its output is the identification of the risk response
scenario with the lowest expected extra cost.

In order to effectively analyze, control, and prevent occupational health risk and
ensure the reliability of the weight, a method based on FMEA (failure mode and
effects analysis) and an improved AHP (analytic hierarchy process) model was
established. The occupational Risk Assessment of the occupational health and safety
management system (OHSAS18001) of the Process industry is taken as an example,
the three most significant risk factors (fall, electrical shock, and gas) are selected as
the research objects, the FMEA method is used, an expert questionnaire is carried
out to establish the comprehensive assessment matrix of each indicator according to
the RPN (risk priority number) value, and, finally, a case study is conducted through
the FMEA and the improved AHP model The results show that the occupational
disease of the processes industrys occupational health and safety management
system belongs to a general grade.
4. Methodological Approach
The common occupational hazards in the Processes industry are dust, noise,
vibration, harmful gas, heat radiation, occupational injury, and so on, where dust,
noise, and gas have caused great harm to peoples health. These three common risk
factors are analyzed and evaluated in this paper.
