In this study, the hazards in a medium-sized enterprise engaged in production and processing of glass products in Turkey and the risks they pose are identified. Then, using cross-sectional research, a physical, chemical and biological risk report was created by L-type matrix method. During this reporting, hazards caused by Covid-19, which has been declared as pandemic by World Health Organization and became the biggest health problem in the world today, and regulatory and preventive actions that can be taken against these hazards are widely covered. The aim of the study is to contribute to the industry in terms of taking measures against occupational accidents and diseases.Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de cam ürünleri üretimi ve işlemesi yapan orta ölçekli bir işletmedeki tehlikeler ve bunların oluşturduğu riskler tespit edilmiştir. Daha sonra kesitsel araştırma kullanılarak L tipi matris yöntemi ile fiziksel, kimyasal ve biyolojik bir risk raporu oluşturulmuştur. Bu raporlama sırasında Dünya Sağlık Örgütü tarafından pandemi ilan edilen ve bugün dünyanın en büyük sağlık sorunu haline gelen Covid-19'un neden olduğu tehlikeler ve bu tehlikelere karşı alınabilecek düzenleyici ve önleyici tedbirler geniş kapsamlı olarak ele alınmaktadır.
