The work accidents and occupational diseases are very important especially in the industrializing countries. According to the International Labour Organization (ILO) every 15 seconds, a worker dies from a work-related accident or disease. Every 15 seconds, 160 workers have a work-related accident. Every day, 6.300 people die as a result of occupational accidents or work-related diseases–more than 2,3 million deaths per year. The economic burden of poor occupational safety and health practices is estimated at 4 per cent of global Gross Domestic Product each year. In Turkey, work accidents’ figures are very high but occupational diseases’ figures are not very high. There are several causes of this condition.

Occupational accidents and diseases cause the loss of valuable workers and lead to high healthcare expenses. Because occupational accidents and diseases are ascribed to inadequate working conditions and work environments, they can be prevented through a well-established occupational safety and health management system, which can ensure workers’ health and reduce the expense of healthcare. The study investigated the shortage of work-related occupational safety and health (OSH) measures in medium-sized manufacturing industries. This study mainly focused on qualitative interviews with 15 labor inspectors and 25 business executives from OSH participating to investigate the problems of occupational safety and health in the manufacturing industries in Taiwan. The results of a qualitative study show that the most important problems with OSH management are employers’ negligence and workers’ insufficient knowledge about OSH management. The research results revealed the following eighteen significant shortcomings of OSH management: employers care mostly about production profit and do not care much for OSH; OSH data collection and OSH planning are not suitable for the workplace; many managers of OSH affairs are not qualified, in terms of their professional or academic backgrounds; and the repair of workplaces’ roofs often results in falling accidents, especially before or after a typhoon, because of workers’ failure to use safety belts and/or to follow OSH guidelines. In order to address the shortcomings and bottlenecks, the study also presented recommendations for how to implement and revise the OSH Act and how to research and enhance OSH management. The results of this study will not only supply the Ministry of Labor (Taiwan) with data to plan the strategy of OSH management but also will allow employers and workers to improve OSH management in the workplace in order to prevent the occurrence of occupational accidents.

The University

There is very little discussion about the needs of occupational health within the University area. In fact, the University is a place where interaction occurs not only for lecturers and students, but also employees, contractors and other visitors with very varied backgrounds and cultures. The lack of application of OHSMS in the construction sector in the University area causes a high number of work accidents. Making a safety plan at the initiation stage can reduce and prevent potential hazards that will occur. One of the methods can be used to reduce work accidents is by developing a safety plan using WBS (Work Breakdown Structure). This study aims to develop a WBS-based construction occupational safety and health plan for structural and architectural work buildings. This study develops a safety plan based on Regulation of Minister of PUPR No. 21 of 2019. This study uses literature study techniques for risk identification and questionnaires validation by experts with a minimum of 5 years experiences in OHS construction project. The result of this study is identification of hazards, impacts, prevention, OHS objective and programs. The results will be used for the development of a safety plan, intending to improve occupational safety and health performance and reduce occupational accidents in construction projects.
