Background and Objective: Resilience is the process of coping and successfully adapting to challenging and life-threatening situations which is a kind of positive adaptation to adverse conditions. One of the most serious challenges in the industry is maintaining the health and safety of employees while performing their job duties. The present study aimed to quantitatively evaluate resilience engineering indicators in the metal industries of Kashan, Iran, and prioritize using the AHP method.
Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study had two stages. First, the resilience questionnaire was distributed among 110 employees of six metal industry companies in Kashan by convenience sampling method. In the second stage, a questionnaire consisting of 6 questions was completed by 15 occupational health and metal industry experts and then the prioritization of resilience indicators was determined using hierarchical analysis. Expert choice software was used to determine the priorities. The total resilience score was calculated and statistically compared by t-test and ANOVA after weighting.
Results: The results indicated that the six main indicators of emergency preparedness, management commitment, reporting culture, awareness, learning culture, and flexibility with a final score of 0.921, 0,852, 0.517, 0.513, 0.485, and 0. 428 were ranked first to sixth.
Conclusion: Emergency preparedness and management commitment were the most important indicators and the total resilience score in the metal industries of Kashan was 0.619.
