İŞYERİ YARALANMALARI ÜZERİNDE GÜVENLİK İKLİMİ VE GÜVENLİK KÜLTÜRÜNÜN ROLÜ

Güvenlik kavramı, iş yerlerinde yaşanan kazalar sonucu oluşan maddi ve manevi kayıplar sebebiyle sürekli önemini korumaktadır. İşletmeler ihmal, tedbirsizlik, eğitim yetersizliği, bilgisizlik, tecrübesizlik vb. sebeplerle bu konuyla sürekli karşılaşmaktadırlar. Bu çalışmada amaç, güvenlik iklimi ve güvenlik kültürü ile işyeri yaralanmaları arasındaki ilişkileri tespit etmektir. Çalışmanın kapsamı ve sınırlarını Kırıkkale ve Kırşehir illerindeki Döküm sanayinde çalışanlar oluşturmaktadır. Veriler tam yapılandırılmış görüşme anket ile toplanmış ve 283 kişiye ulaşılmıştır. Söz konusu değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler t-Testi, Anova Testi, Korelasyon ve Regresyon analizi ile test edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda güvenlik iklimi ve güvenlik kültürünün işyeri yaralanmalarını etkilediği tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular yorumlanmış, sektöre ve çalışanlara bazı önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
