An approach to integrate human error assessment and decision- making using the Analytical Hierarchy Processing (AHP) method is proposed. The aim of this approach is to reduce the probability of occurrence and severity of human error during the operational phase of a fishing vessel. It utilises AHP theory to rank the impacts of human error and further integrates the available control options (to minimise these errors) within the analysis. The result obtained from the analysis reflects the most favoured control option that will address all the possible human errors within the system to a satisfactory level. A test case, which considers the shooting operation of a beam trawler, is used to demonstrate the proposed approach. Each step involved in the shooting operation is assessed for its vulnerability to human error with respect to the equipment being operated and this captures the operator- machine interaction. The AHP method integrates the evaluation of solutions to reduce risk levels within the human error assessment and this reduces the complexity of the analysis that is present in traditional methods.
