Occupational health and safety applications and sample risk analysis study in underground mineries

In the thesis study, first of all, occupational health and safety in underground mines, occupational accidents and occupational diseases encountered in the sector were included. In this study, Fine-Kinney risk assessment method was used as a methodology. Fortification in underground coal mine operation, transportation, ventilation, mine site, underground dust and gas explosion, underground production methods, wagons and rails, stockpile area, exposure to dust, vibration and noise, electricity, ergonomics, hygiene, environmental factors, maintenance and repair, It is aimed to identify occupational health and safety hazards and risks during the activities of personal protective equipment, air compressor, fire, keeping technical personnel, starting personnel work, tree utilization workshop, living (shelter) room, and determining what kind of measures can be taken against these risks The identified current danger risks were identified and the results obtained were evaluated by including the risks remaining after the regulatory and preventive actions. In addition, similar issues in the literature were encountered. As a result, the mining site, electricity and fire have been identified as the highest risk activity areas. In this direction, necessary arrangements were made and solutions were offered to the stakeholders of the sector.
