Occupational health and safety risk assessment in a natural gas combined cucle power plant

In the globalizing world, government are in a race with each other to can access energy resources with their own means. The increase of permanent in the need for energy directs the economies of the world states as well as strategic action plans and policies . For this reason, energy, which was also important for our country's economy, is the basis of industrialization and an indispensable element of human life. In order not to face the risk of external dependency, the reliable and reasonable production of the consumable energy resources by the countries has economically and socially important.

With this law, businesses were divided into classes and regulations came into force for those with obligations and applications were made obligatory according to their content. With this law, mandatory risks assessment and applications within the content of occupational health and safety in the natural gas cycle power plant operated by a company with institutional identity had been examined. In many industrial areas, the works and processes carried out from the connection of the gas to the deploy of the electricity have been observed in order to meet the electricity need economically and without deduction. It was observed that the risk evaluation was prepared by a large team. This study of the aim is to be a guide in the energy sector that requires special situations related to occupational health and safety and to create safe working areas.
