Evaluation of Hazardous Wastes in Terms of Occupational Health and Safety, and Environmental Ethics

Evaluation of Hazardous Wastes in Terms of Occupational Health and Safety, and Environmental Ethics

Considering the two concepts of environment and human from a historical point of view, they are two interconnected formations that cannot be separated from each other, and which have influenced each other throughout history. The purpose of the article is to evaluate the concept of "environment" in which many living beings and non-living objects can affect each other endlessly, and humans who have an organic connection with the environment since its existence, develop biologically and socially due to this bond, and who used the environment throughout its development and dragged this "environment" to extinction with the destruction it has created. It will also be narrowed these concepts and try to evaluate the sub-headings of occupational safety in terms of people in business life, and hazardous waste management, which is not very ecocentric in terms of the environment and companies. Furthermore, it is tried to evaluate the results in the scope of environmental ethics, which has almost no impact on working life conditions
