Factors influencing unsafe acts in the automotive industry using grounded theory and fuzzy DEMATEL.

ABSTRACT: Occupational accidents are recognized as the cause of numerous severe injuries and fatalities worldwide. Unsafe Acts (UAs) and unsafe conditions are the two primary origins of accidents, dentifying and prioritizing them can help prevent accidents from occurring. So, the aim of this study was to identify and prioritize the factors influencing unsafe acts in the automotive industry using grounded theory and fuzzy DEMATEL. A conceptual model using accident reports and the grounded theory approach was created. This included steps such as data collection, open coding, axial coding, selective coding, and a model saturation test. The fuzzy DEMATEL was used to determiene intensity of the relationship between influencing factors. The 'Government policies' factor, with the highest value (D + R) of 1
