In this paper, we have developed an interval type-2 fuzzy logic controller (T2FLC) approach for assessment of the risks that workers expose to at construction sites. Using this novel approach, past accident data, subjective judgments of experts, and the current safety level of a construction site are to be combined. The method is then implemented on a tunneling construction site and risk level for all type of accidents is formulated. In T2FLC assists to trace inputs and outputs in a well-organized manner for building the inferences train so that various types of risk assessment can be predicted in industry. Finally, a comparative study has been successfully performed with type-1 and type-2 fuzzy dataset for improving risk assessment that can be easily determined in the type-2 fuzzy prediction model for improving accuracy. Validity of the proposed model is done with the help of statistical analysis and multiple linear regressions.
