Abstract
This paper aims to carry out the risk assessment of work safety in container dry ports (CDPs) by adopting a continuous risk matrix (CRM) based on a Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The originality of this paper consists of (1) identifying risk factors (RFs) for work safety at CDPs, (2) adopting the fuzzy AHP approach to estimate the likelihood and consequence weights of RFs, (3) developing CRM to evaluate the risk level of work safety in CDPs. For the empirical study, CDPs in Vietnam were surveyed to verify the research model. The proposed continuous risk matrix can contribute as a reference for theoretical methodologies in risk assessment research. At the same time, the empirical study can provide practical information for dry port managers to improve their performance in work safety.
期刊介绍:
Maritime Engineering publishes technical papers relevant to civil engineering in port, estuarine, coastal and offshore environments.
Relevant to consulting, client and contracting engineers as well as researchers and academics, the journal focuses on safe and sustainable engineering in the salt-water environment and comprises papers regarding management, planning, design, analysis, construction, operation, maintenance and applied research. The journal publishes papers and articles from industry and academia that conveys advanced research that those developing, designing or constructing schemes can begin to apply, as well as papers on good practices that others can learn from and utilise.
