“…Se trata de RC14001, que combina en un solo proceso, más económico, la ISO 14001 con el Responsible Care Management System (Lazare & Rongier, 2013). Existen otros casos, en los que lobbies concretos imponen sus criterios de contratación basados también en la seguridad (Lieggio Junior et al, 2012). El marco evaluador que proporciona SQAS cubre toda la cadena logística, incluyendo las empresas de transporte por carretera.…”

Safety and Quality Assessment for Sustainability (SQAS) is evaluation promoted by an as-sociation of chemical companies called CEFIC. Its vocation is to serve as a tool for the as-sessment of safety, quality, security, health, environmental and corporate social responsi-bility (CSR) of the logistic suppliers, but the activity of the companies that promote it can generate doubts about its instrumentalization. On the other hand, ISO 26000 offers an agreed guidance framework on social responsibility (SR). Through a comparative analysis, using the core subjects of ISO 26000 as a basis, the suitability of the SQAS evaluation in its “Transport Service” modality, as SR measurement tool, is tested. The analysis detects im-portant shortcomings in the SR core subjects assessed, especially those referring to human rights, moral obligations with society or stakeholder commitment and its participation, but on the other hand, the assessment stands out for its exhaustiveness in specific transporta-tion safety issues. This work contributes to contextualize the SQAS assessment as a CSR tool and identify the aspects that should be incorporated for a more effective assess of CSR. It also shows the lack of rigor of the self-regulation tools of organizations.

“…Based on this, Yang et al proposed a framework for a quality function under a fuzzy environment, which can effectively control the risk in the process of dangerous goods transportation [17]. Juniora et al focused on the risk management in cargo transportation and proposed a method to select different cargo transportation companies according to their technical preferences, in order to improve the safety of dangerous cargo transportation [18]. Vlies et al put forward a qualitative risk assessment method for dangerous goods through seven case studies in the Netherlands.…”

Construction of Knowledge Graphs for Maritime Dangerous Goods

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Dangerous goods occupy an important proportion in international shipping, and government and enterprises pay a lot of attention to transport safety. There are a wide variety of dangerous goods, and the knowledge involved is extensive and complex. Organizing and managing this knowledge plays an important role in the safe transportation of dangerous goods. The knowledge graph is a mass of brand-new knowledge management technologies that provide powerful technical support for integrating domain knowledge and solving the problem of the “knowledge island.” This paper first introduces the knowledge of maritime dangerous goods (MDG); constructs a three-layer knowledge structure of MDG, dividing this knowledge into two categories; uses ontology to express the concepts, entities, and relations of MDG; and puts forward the representation methods of the conceptual layer and entity layer and designs them in detail. Finally, the knowledge graph of maritime dangerous goods (KGMDG) is constructed. Furthermore, we demonstrate the knowledge visualization, retrieval, and automatic judgment of segregation requirement based on KGMDG. It is proved that KGMDG does not only help to simplify the retrieval process of professional knowledge and to promote intelligent transportation but is also conducive to the sharing, dissemination, and utilization of MDG knowledge.
