Abstract

Prevention of occupational accidents is one of the most important goals in occupational safety, but without understanding the causes of accidents, it is extremely difficult. The analysis of statistical data on occupational accidents has great importance in taking preventive measures. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the statistical information of occupational accidents officially published between 2013-2019 in throughout Turkey and in the health sector. In the study, T.C. Social Security Institution statistics and European Statistics Office data were used. In line with the data, according to the calculation criteria determined by the European Statistics Office, the accident incidence rates in the last 7 years were calculated for Turkey and the health sector. In addition, in order to determine the relationship between the data obtained throughout Turkey and the data in the health sector, correlation analysis was conducted with the SPSS program for the number of insured persons who had an occupational accident, the number of permanent incapacity due to work accidents, and the number of deaths as a result of occupational accidents. A significant and positive relationship was found (r=.961, p

Fatal Occupational Accidents in Turkey from a City and Country Perpective

“…Yıldız and Özdemir (2021) tried to reveal the relationship between Turkey's development level and occupational accident statistics; For this purpose, they examined the relationship between the level of development indicators such as gross domestic product (GDP), average years of education and Human Development Index (HDI) data with fatal and non-fatal occupational accidents using simple regression analysis. Demir and Özay (2022) compared Turkey and various EU countries regarding general accident incidence rate and fatal occupational accident incidence rate based on the 2013-2019 occupational accident data obtained from SSI and EUROSTAT. They found that Turkey's fatal occupational accident incidence rate value for the examined period was much higher than the EU average.…”
