Özet

Purpose: The aim of this study is to follow the development of a technology and monitoring the change of a technology. Patent analysis and statistical control chart are utilized in the field of occupational health and safety for a case study. Theory and Methods: Patent data related to safety technologies are used to utilize statistical quality control charts, namely, individual moving range (I-MR) control charts. A time series analysis has also been performed in this study. Results: The results of this study show that using a single technology forecasting model for a long period of time is misleading. Additionally, the forecast model for the period between 1942 and 2020 should be updated in various periods. Occupational health and safety technologies are an emerging technology field and appear to be incentives for policy makers and safety engineers to allocate resources. Conclusion: Monitoring the change in a technology enables to recognize systems that will ensure efficiency and effectiveness in manufacturing systems for decision-makers. Therefore, it is very important to follow technology development in practice. The study is unique given that the number of studies focusing on technologies in the OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) field is limited.
