Advanced technological application and new hazards

Integrating a technology into a business and making it sustainable can be achieved with a good analysis and a systematic workplace organization. Elements such as the internet of things, artificial intelligence, embedded software, and competent employee presence are the supporting elements of this process. Every technology has emerged as a result of human needs. Parallel to this, while living standards, production capacity and income level have increased, the need for labor has left its place to machines. However, as in every technological change process, some new risks and dangers are expected to emerge in this process. Analyzing these risks with traditional methods can be difficult and time consuming. Sustainability of production in an enterprise can be achieved by eliminating possible risks or reducing them to an acceptable level. Based on this determination, in this study, new and advanced technological risks are handled with a different method. In the study, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, which is one of the Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods and is widely preferred, was used. In the study, advanced technological applications and the risks they bring were determined by taking the opinions of experts. Accordingly, technological work accidents, occupational diseases, cyber-attacks, human-induced accidents are the main criteria, automation and robot accidents, chemical and biological origin occupational diseases, sabotage and attacks on personal data, misinterpretation of data / shortage of qualified employees are sub- criteria. determined. Microsoft Excel was used in the solution of the application and the results of each analysis were consistent. According to the results of the analysis, the most important criterion among the advanced technological applications and the risks they bring is occupational diseases (K2) with 0.4755, while in the binary comparisons made between the sub-criteria based on the main criteria, 0.3518 Sabotage and Attacks on Personal Data (Sub-Criteria 3) is the most important criterion. was the sub-criterion with high weight.
