Abstract
Introduction: Today, organizations need an integrated management system (IMS) to achieve global standards regarding the environment and employees. One of the important goals of an integrated management system is to eliminate or reduce disasters to an acceptable level. Therefore, in this study, we tried to measure the efficiency of deployment of this system on safety performance monitoring indicators.
Method: This study was a descriptive-analytical study conducted during 2009 and 2010 (years before implementation of integrated management system) and years 2011 to 2014 (years when integrated management system was implemented in all units of one of the tile factories of Yazd city). In this study, all the information related to the events in this industry was collected. Then the variables of accident repetition coefficient (AFR), accident severity factor (ASR), repetition-intensity factor (FSI) and Safe-T-Score were calculated and analyzed.
Results: The incidence of recurrence coefficient, accident severity coefficient and recurrence-severity coefficient decreased from 2009 to 2014. The safe T coefficient also showed that in 2011 (the beginning of the implementation of integrated management system) and 2012 the number of accidents has significantly decreased compared to previous years.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the implementation of integrated management system can increase safety indices and thereby increase the level of factory safety.
Keywords: Accident Repeat Coefficient (AFR), Accident Intensity Ratio (ASR), Accident Repeat-Intensity Coefficient (FSI), Integrated Management System (IMS)
