PERİYODİK SAĞLIK MUAYENELERİ İLE İŞ SAĞLIĞI VE GÜVENLİĞİ İKLİMİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ: BİR SAĞLIK KURUMU ÖRNEĞİ
Abstract
Bu araştırma, bir üniversite hastanesinde görev yapmakta olan çalışanların (n:229) periyodik sağlık muayeneleri ile iş sağlığı ve güvenliği iklimini değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirildi. Veriler, literatür doğrultusunda araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan anketler kullanarak iki aşamada toplandı. Birinci aşamada çalışanların periyodik sağlık verileri incelenirken ikinci aşamada çalışanların iş sağlığı ve güvenliğiyle ilgili görüşleri değerlendirildi. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistiksel yöntemlerin yanı sıra nicel verilerin analizinde One Way Anova, Mann Whitney U ve Kruskal Wallis Testi’nden yararlanıldı. Anlamlılık p<0,05 ve p<0,001 düzeyinde değerlendirildi. Çalışanların; %71,6’sının takip etmesi gereken periyodik sağlık muayeneleri hakkında bilgi sahibi olduğu ve %74,7’sinin bu muayeneleri düzenli olarak yaptırdığı belirlendi. Ayrıca çalışanların, %63,3’ünün periyodik sağlık muayenelerini sağlığın korunmasında etkili buldukları ve orta düzeyin üzerinde bu muayeneleri gerekli gördükleri tespit edildi. Bu araştırmada çalışanların periyodik sağlık muayenelerine karşı genel yaklaşımlarının ve bilinç düzeylerinin önemli bir sağlık yönetimi farkındalığı olarak karşımıza çıktığı söylenebilir.

EVALUATION OF PERIODIC HEALTH EXAMINATIONS AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY CLIMATE: A CASE STUDY FROM A HEALTHCARE INSTITUTION
Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the periodic health examinations and the occupational health and safety climate experienced by employees (n = 229) working in a university hospital. Data were collected in two stages using questionnaires prepared by the researchers in line with the literature. In the first stage, the employees’ periodic health data were reviewed, while in the second stage, their opinions on occupational health and safety were evaluated. Descriptive statistical methods were used for data analysis, and One Way ANOVA, Mann Whitney U, and Kruskal Wallis tests were employed for quantitative data analysis. Statistical significance was evaluated at the levels of p<0.05 and p<0.001. It was found that 71.6% of the participants were informed about the periodic health examinations they needed to undergo, and 74.7% underwent these examinations regularly. Additionally, 63.3% of the employees perceived periodic health examinations as effective in protecting their health and considered them necessary at a level above moderate. The general approach and awareness levels of employees toward periodic health examinations can be considered an important indicator of health management awareness.
