The technological and global changes experienced today have made the occupational health and
safety sector gain a higher importance. The use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
developed to ensure the safety of employees may lead to the need for multi-criteria decision
making for product selection due to the increase in the number of manufacturers, the increase in
companies and product features, and the variability of product features. Within the scope of the
research, a case study was conducted to determine the factors affecting the selection decision of
the helmets to be purchased for the purpose of occupational safety at the workplace and to
present a preference ranking proposal. The forty best-selling products in the helmet category on
Trendyol and Hepsiburada websites were included in the scope of the relevant research. The
TOPSIS method was used while making the selection in the application and the results were
evaluated by comparing. The results were checked with Python coding for the TOPSIS method.
Preference suggestions are presented according to the features of user rating, adding to favorites,
number of comments, price, number of comments/user points and price/user points.
