Abstract:
Objective Using AHP-TOPSIS method to evaluate management quality of occupational disease reporting.
Methods The management quality goals of occupational disease reporting were continuously decomposed with AHP method and weighting coefficient of each object was assigned according to its contribution to overall objects. Then the TOPSIS method was used to determine the optimal and the worst solution of each object and final score for the comprehensive evaluation of management quality of occupational disease reporting in each county was obtained. Correlation analysis was carried out between the ranking results of management quality evaluation of occupational disease reporting derived from the AHP-TOPSIS method in different counties and the ranking results derived from the traditional method.
Results The management quality goals of occupational disease reporting were continuously decomposed into three first-level indicators and 12 second-level indicators. The first-level indicators and their weight coefficients were management of organization(0.104 7), implementation of work(0.637 0) and quality control (0.258 3), respectively. The highest weight coefficient among the secondary indicators was the reporting staff training (0.272 4), followed by the case card collection of key occupational diseases(0.149 6) and timeliness of data reporting and reviewing(0.120 2), and the lowest was the completion of annual work plan (0.011 4). Of all second-level indicators, the biggest regional disparities were the annual excellent rate of misreporting survey and quality assessment, and the timeliness of data reporting and auditing, which varied greatly among different counties with the gap coefficients of 0.00 and 13.63, respectively. The correlation between the two ranking results derived from the AHP-TOPSIS method and the traditional method was 0.893 (P=0.007).
Conclusion Compared with the traditional method, AHP-TOPSIS can reflect the actual situation of the work, and has better feasibility and effectiveness for the comprehensive evaluation of the management quality of occupational disease reporting.
