The Effect of Occupational Accidents and Diseases among the Tourist Guides on their Intention to Quit

Öz

The study hopes to determine the effects of occupational accidents and diseases experienced by active tourist guides on their intention to leave the profession. To obtain the data needed within the scope of the study, semi-structured interview technique was used. Snowball sampling was employed and 28 participants were reached. Themes and codes were determined with the Maxqda qualitative analysis program. Afterwards, each theme was examined comprehensively and comments were made regarding them. According to the findings, it was determined that occupational accidents mostly occur in the tour vehicle and at the historical site. In addition, it was determined that the duration of occupational diseases varies between 1 week and 3 years and that tourist guides generally receive supportive treatment during this process. It was determined that occupational diseases experienced by tourist guides include not being able to make their voices heard, not being able to speak for a long time, not being able to stand for a long time due to back pain, and not being able to walk. In order to minimize occupational accidents / occupational diseases and reduce physical fatigue, agencies should organize the rest periods of tourist guides. In addition, TUREB and relevant professional chambers should organize in-service training to inform tourist guides about work accidents and occupational diseases that they may encounter in their professional lives, and it is recommended that training be provided on occupational health and safety to minimize possible risks.
