İnşaat sektöründe kazı işleri sebepli iş kazaları

Abstract

İnşaat sektörü iş kazalarının sıklıkla meydana geldiği bir iş koludur. Bu çalışmada kazı çalışmaları esnasında meydana gelen 92 kazaya ait rapor detaylarıyla incelenmiştir. Raporlara ait bilgiler Amerikan OSHA veri tabanının 1986-2014 yılları arasında meydana gelen kazalardan ilgili anahtar kelimeler kullanılarak ayıklanmıştır. Raporların analizinde tek değişkenli sıklık analizi kullanılmış kazaların nasıl ve neden olduğu irdelenmiştir. Kazı çalışmalarında iş kazaları %60,9 oranında ölümle sonuçlanmıştır. Güvenlik ekipmanının sağlanmaması en sık gözlenen güvensiz harekettir. Bu analiz ile bulunan sonuçlar Türkiye’de benzer şekilde meydana gelecek kazalara dair önlem alınması için etkin stratejilerin geliştirilmesi ve uygulanmasında fikir verecektir.

Occupational accidents occured in excavation works in construction industry

Abstract

Construction industry is a branch in which occupational accidents frequently occured. In this study reports of 92 accidents which occured during excavation works are investigated in detail. The information is gathered from OSHA in the 1986-2014 time frame by appliying descriptive key words. Major relationships between how and why the accidents occured are revealed by performing univariate analysis. Majority of the accidents ended up with fatality with a percentage of 60,9%. Absence of safety equipment was found to be the most observed unsafe act. The results of the study would enlighten to figure out some effective strategies and their application of accidents that may occur in Turkey.
