Crucial part of the reduction and prevention of workplace injuries and maintaining occupational safety and health system takes risk assessment model, which appears as one of the most important. Frequent advances in all fields cause changes in risk assessment models in relation to the traditional approach. This article is focused on providing reliable assessment tool that will enable suitable and easy usage of methodology for risk evaluation in the workplaces in manufacturing small and medium enterprises. For that purpose, three groups of factors are introduced and their hierarchical structures are defined. Pre-defined linguistic expressions are used to describe relative importance of factors, sub-factors and values of sub-factors. Fuzzy set theory is used for modeling of existing uncertainties. The levels of identified risks are given by exact way, using fuzzy logic. The proposed model is tested with real-life data from manufacturing small and medium enterprises.

Sustainable development and project stakeholder management indicate a business practice where an organization strives to fulfil the demands of the important stakeholders for the project’s success. If one company relies on subassembly parts from its supplier, then it might be considered that it has high interest for enhancing the business continuity of the supplier. This issue has become more complex during 2020 due to turbulent business conditions where the problem of the safety and health of workers during daily work has become one of main reasons for business vulnerability. Besides the above-mentioned, project stakeholders may have different demands. The implementation of the management actions that lead to the fulfilment of stakeholder demands (SDs), such as addressing ongoing issues, are almost always limited by the available budget. The contribution of this research is providing the input for determining the actions which should address the most important SDs. Those activities may be seen as part of the strategy for external stakeholder management and successful long-term relationship. The determination of the priorities of SDs is based on a fuzzy multicriteria optimization model with type-2 fuzzy sets.
