Abstract: The occupational accidents and similar hazards which are subject to occupational health and safety are increasing with the development of the industrialization. As a consequence of the precautions taken in developed countries, such accidents can be reduced or prevented. However, it is observed that deficiencies in the solution of problems such as occupational accidents and occupational diseases are experienced in developing countries. The aim of this study is to examine the applicability of the work done in our country in terms of current occupational health and safety and to identify the deficiencies in applying the practices and laws of the developed countries in comparison with the laws of our country and to find solutions to them.
