Subject
The purpose of machines in mechanization should be well evaluated and analyzed.
General objectives are:
- To shorten the time of work and increase productivity
- To use less physical strength and effort
- To enable work in hazardous areas
The following topics will be addressed:
- Determining whether mechanization and new technologies create more new employment opportunities or increase unemployment.
- Investigating whether the era of haste among people is related to machines.
- Researching whether environmental pollution came with mechanization and measuring how much new technologies can play a role in correcting environmental pollution.
- Assessing how many people are affected by the Peltzman effect.
- Investigating which educational levels are affected by the labor shortage caused by mechanization.
- Measuring how mechanization affects cultural differences and customs.
Type of Loss
- Lack of communication and malfunction
- Laziness and machine dependency
- Environmental pollution
- Customs and values
- Economic uncertainty and political instability
- Future anxiety and intense stress
- Negatives of the era of haste
- Employment
- Rapidly changing policies and politics
- Raw materials
Reason for Choosing the Topic for Improvement
- To identify the effects of machines on people and start and determine measures to reduce their negative impacts.
- To determine the extent to which machines contribute to environmental pollution and identify measures to prevent it.
- To initiate guidance for people to new professions due to the unemployment caused by machines in the future.
- To identify the necessary steps for the transition to and adaptation to new technologies by machines.
- To start efforts to maximize the use of minimal physical strength and increase productivity through machines.
Determining the Goal
- Implement measures to prevent environmental pollution and apply ecological systems.
- Redirect the labor gap created by machines replacing people to new professions and sectors.
- Ensure the transition and integration of machines to new technologies.
- Direct people to sports, theater, arts, and various hobbies to prevent laziness from machines.
- Determine necessary short-term policies.
- Increase the efficient use of machines.

Problem Description
A SWOT analysis of the impact of mechanization on humanity has been conducted.
SWOT Analysis
Pareto Analysis of Weak Points
| Weak Point | Yiğit | Furkan | Evren | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Inability to quickly adapt to new technologies. | 4 | 5 | 1 | 10 |
| Laziness of people. | 3 | 3 | 5 | 11 |
| Environmental pollution | 4 | 4 | 5 | 13 |
| Dependency on machines (production halt in case of failure, etc.) | 1 | 2 | 3 | 6 |
| Peltzman Effect | 5 | 1 | 3 | 9 |
| Labor shortage due to new job areas | 4 | 2 | 2 | 8 |
| Machine error probability | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 |
| Workers being consumers at the same time | 2 | 1 | 2 | 5 |
| Limits of growth brought by rapid production | 3 | 4 | 4 | 11 |
| Decreasing returns from education | 3 | 3 | 3 | 9 |
| Short-term policies | 5 | 4 | 4 | 13 |
Pareto Evaluation
The weak points from the SWOT application of the impact of mechanization on humanity were rated from 1 (least) to 5 (most), resulting in:
The following table shows the Pareto evaluation (Frequency Evaluation):
| Weak Point | Yiğit | Furkan | Evren | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Environmental pollution | 3 | 3 | 3 | 9 |
| Short-term policies | 3 | 2 | 2 | 7 |
| Limits of growth brought by rapid production | 1 | 2 | 2 | 5 |
| Laziness of people | 1 | 2 | 3 | 6 |
| Dependency on machines (production halt in case of failure, etc.) | 3 | 1 | 2 | 6 |
Pareto Evaluation Percentage Values and Cumulative
| Weak Point | Percentage | Cumulative Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| Environmental pollution | 25% | 25% |
| Short-term policies | 20% | 45% |
| Limits of growth brought by rapid production | 15% | 60% |
| Laziness of people | 10% | 70% |
| Dependency on machines (production halt in case of failure, etc.) | 10% | 80% |
Risk Assessment
Definition of Risk Assessment Matrix
The table below separates the risks by Likelihood and Risk Degree. Risk assessment will be based on the following table. For risks with a high risk degree, preventive measures must be taken before the project starts. This way, we also prevent risks arising from the primary risks.
| IMPACT | VERY SEVERE (5) | SEVERE (4) | MEDIUM (3) | LIGHT (2) | VERY LIGHT (1) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 25 | 20 | 15 | 10 | 5 |
| 4 | 20 | 16 | 12 | 8 | 4 |
| 3 | 15 | 12 | 9 | 6 | 3 |
| 2 | 10 | 8 | 6 | 4 | 2 |
| 1 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Risk Assessment Matrix
| Risks | Likelihood | Impact | Risk Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Environmental Pollution | 15 – 5 | 13 – 4 | 20 / Very High |
| Short-Term Policies | 13 – 4 | 6 – 2 | 8 / Medium |
| Inability to Adapt Quickly to New Technology | 11 – 4 | 6 – 2 | 8 / Medium |
| People Becoming Lazier | 9 – 3 | 13 – 4 | 12 / High |
The impacts of the risks in the highest risk group have been evaluated in terms of duration and cost.
