Abstract

The occupational health and safety law in Turkey was enacted in 2012. Work areas are classified as very dangerous, dangerous, and less dangerous in the context of labor law. Sports centers in the less dangerous class have the obligation to act according to the law until July 2023. This study aims to determine how the application of the law for a public university sports center is. The situation of the sports center was examined both from the users' point of view with the application of a questionnaire and by using the risk analysis method with expert evaluation. In the light of the results obtained, the precautions to be taken within the framework of the accepted risk levels in the facilities and the harmful effects of these measures are not taken are emphasized.
