Today, one of the most important elements of competition and continuous improvement is work health and safety studies. The effectiveness of occupational health and safety practices has a positive impact on the performance of and employees in the long term. There are many risk factors that negatively affect the production efficiency and the health of workers in the work environment. Identifying and removing them from the work environment is important for the safety of the business and the employee. In this study, the textile industry has studied the risk factors that cause employment accidents. If the risk factors that affect accidents and their interactive effects can be more clearly and accurately determined, the effectiveness of work health and safety practices will also increase at that level. The relationship between the risk factors that cause an accident at work has been studied by the DEMATEL method. As a result, it has been found that the criterion "management-employee perceptions" more affects other risk factors. The improvements that can be created in the management-employee perception and the effectiveness of other risk factors and the occurrence of accidents will be reduced. The factor that has the least impact on and the most affected on other criteria is found as "biological factors".
