Evaluation of Occupational Safety in the Operation and Maintenance Activities of Dams
The accidents occurred during the operation/maintenance activities of US dams between 1984-2018 were analyzed from the OSHA database and 88 cases were selected. The objective of our study is to identify and investigate potential hazards and risk sources responsible for and affecting OHS performance in the operation/maintenance activities. Further, the factors responsible for injuries and fatalities happened during these activities are determined. It is found out that 5.2% of precaution negligence was related to the facility and wrong design and poor maintenance were the main negligence factors. The important point to be noted is that these negligence factors result in fatal accidents, albeit few. The results also show that machine safeguarding was not available or provided in most of the cases and 12.7% of those who had occupational accidents did not use appropriate PPE or did not use PPE at all.
期刊介绍:
The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.
Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.
Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
