Abstract

İş sağlığı ve güvenliği; çalışma ortamında hem işçilerin verimli çalışması, iş performansı, tatmini, motivasyonu sağlanması hem de iş kazalarının önlenmesi açısından önemli meslek alanlarından biridir. Ülkemizde çoğu çalışma alanlarında aydınlatmanın çalışanın sağlığını, verimliliğini, motivasyonunu, iş refahını nasıl etkileyeceği dikkate alınan konular arasında görülmemektedir. Çalışma ortamı denildiğinde sadece ofisler olarak değerlendirilmemelidir. Örneğin AVM’ler, kafeler de birer çalışma ortamıdır ve yanlış aydınlatma sistemleri kullanılması çalışanları ve doğal olarak buraya gelen müşterileri olumsuz yönde etkileyebilir. Bu makalede bina içi tasarımlardan biri olan aydınlatma ve konuları arasındaki renk sıcaklığının, renk geriverim indeksinin çalışan sağlığı ve performansı üzerindeki etkileri araştırılmış olup, gün ışığı ve yapay ışığın işçilerin verimliliğini, motivasyonunu, iş tatmini ve üretkenliği nasıl etkilediği üzerinde durulmuştur. Yeterli gün ışığı alamayan ya da yeterli aydınlatma olmayan çalışma alanlarında, çalışanların motivasyonunun, verimliliğinin ve üretkenliğinin aynı zamanda çalışma saatlerinde işi sürdürebilme istekliliğinin olumsuz etkilendiği yapılan araştırmalarda görülmüştür. Diğer taraftan yeterli ışığın alınamadığı ortamlarda oturma pozisyonlarından kaynaklanacak sebeple hem iskelet sisteminde bozulmalar hem de ekranlı araçlarda çalışırken aşırı yorulmadan dolayı göz hassasiyetlerinde artma olduğunu saptanmıştır. İşverenin, çalışma ortamında işçi sağlığı ve güvenliği açısından hem yeterli gün ışığı hem de yapay ışığı sağlaması önem arz etmektedir. İyi yapılandırılmış bir aydınlatma sadece işçilerin sağlığı için değil, işverenler ve iş yeri ortamında işçilerin daha üretken olması, hata ve kaza oranları, devamsızlığın azaltılması, daha iyi iş güvenliği ve sağlığı açısından önemlidir. Burada iş performansını ve motivasyonunu, huzuru etkileyen aydınlatma, CCT ve CRI kavramları ve hasta bina sendromu üzerine değerlendirme makalesi yapılmıştır.

Factors Affecting Workplace and Employee Productivity

Abstract

Occupational health and safety is one of the most important occupational fields in terms of ensuring efficient work, job performance, satisfaction and motivation of workers and preventing occupational accidents in the working environment. In most workplaces in our country, how lighting will affect the health, productivity, motivation and well-being of the employee is not among the issues taken into account. When the working environment is called, it should not only be considered as offices. For example, shopping malls and cafes are also a working environment, and the use of incorrect lighting systems can negatively affect employees and customers who naturally come here. This article explores the effects of color temperature, color rendering index between its subjects and lighting, which is one of the building interior designs, on employee health and performance are investigated, how daylight and artificial light affect workers' efficiency, motivation, job satisfaction and productivity and sick building syndrome (SBS) are emphasized. Well-structured lighting is important not only for the health of workers, but also for employers and workers in the workplace environment in terms of increased productivity, reduced error and accident rates, reduced absenteeism, better occupational safety and health.

Keywords
