Shipyards, marine production and repair industry is directly related to many business lines globally, and it also has a large volume in terms of the workforce potential it provides directly. In 2018, the shipbuilding capacity of the shipyards in our country was over eight million two hundred tons, and the number of employees at that time was around 24 thousand. Especially steel; Industrial branches such as machinery, electricity-electronics, paint and air conditioning are the main components of the shipbuilding industry. This situation necessitates a lot of work to be done at the same time and a crowded working environment in the shipyards. The large employment volume created by the shipbuilding industry related to many sectors brings with it some problems. Liabilities determined in terms of time and contracts in the commercial sense in the shipyards can create pressure on employers and employees, cause disruption of occupational health and safety controls, and lead to occupational accidents with injury and death. In the new shipbuilding and repair and maintenance projects, many work with a great danger potential in the work processes have caused many work accidents. This situation attracts attention by creating a lot of agenda in the media. The aim of this study is to analyze the danger elements of the working environments in closed and open areas where occupational accidents occur in shipyards, especially in ship production processes, in terms of occupational health and safety. Occupational accidents occurring in these areas are not limited to the region where the accident occurred, but have the potential to affect a wide area. For this reason, in this study, it has been tried to evaluate the dangerous situations and behaviors in indoor and outdoor environments by determining the risks and the measures to be taken accordingly, in terms of occupational accidents and legislation.
