Background and aim: Today, with the growth of different dimensions of sustainable development, managers at the organizational and governmental levels have become more and more interested in the components of sustainable development. A healthy and productive human being is at the core of sustainable development. Many factors are contributing to sustainable development, including human, economic, social, industrial, cultural, as well as health, safety, environmental and energy (HSEE) factors. In this regard, the existence of several processing indicators is important in promoting the program and organizational goals at the micro and macro levels. Since continuous evaluation and monitoring of all indicators is not feasible, developing a set of principles to facilitate managerial decision-making processes and monitoring continuous improvement of systems is an important issue in system performance management. Due to the vital role of correct selection of principles in the sustainability of the integrated management system, it is important to consider the key components involved in this choice. The present study aimed to prioritize the HSEE processing indexes in the integrated management system (HSEE IMS) of the Ministry of Industry, Mining and Trade.
Methods: The statistical population of this study is professionals and experts with occupational health, safety, environment, and energy orientation and work experience. In this study, to obtain process, safety, health, environmental and energy processing indicators, firstly, a list of environmental, safety, health, and energy indicators was prepared and evaluated, by using a set of indicators presented in scientific and credible research and articles, the Iranian Environmental Agency, HSE Ministry of Oil, HSEE Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade, including mining and industrial organizations, including Industrial Development and Renovation Organization of Iran (IDERO), Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization (IMIDRO) and other sources. In the present study, being SMART is the main selection criterion for indices, which are weighted as the five main affecting criteria by the AHP method. Weighted criteria were used to prioritize the eight principles of HSEE management including policy, continuous improvement, do, check, monitoring, and measurement of the system, commitment and leadership, planning and corrective action using the fuzzy TOPSIS technique.
Results: The results show that the executive strategic index with a closeness coefficient of 0.937 was selected as the first priority. Continuous improvement and corrective action with the coefficient of closeness of 0.133 and 0.108 were selected from the weaker priorities of the Eight HSEE indices, respectively.
Conclusion: Appropriate selection of indicators to facilitate managerial decision-making processes, optimal monitoring of these indicators with maximum efficiency and minimum cost is possible by using multi-criteria decision-making models. Based on the results, sustainable development can be achievable by ranking and prioritizing the HSEE processing indicators to facilitate managerial decision-making processes and monitor continuous improvement of systems to protect individuals, property and reduce accidents and pollution.
