Employees are constantly in action for the production of goods and services in workplaces. These workplace activities affect the physical and mental health of the employees and cause occupational accidents. Elimination of these negativities is possible with the implementation of occupational health and safety services. Safety organisation is also very important in steel rolling mills so that employees are not exposed to danger. As in any other industry, steel rolling mill workers work with dangerous machinery that causes injury, disability and death. Safe working is an integral part of risk management. Risk management is the process of taking and implementing action to reduce the possibility of an assessed risk occurring. Therefore, known or tolerable risks are managed. In safe workplaces, productivity is high, work accidents and occupational diseases are low. Safe workplaces are only possible with risk management. In this study, the rolling mill area of a workplace producing rebar with the Fine-Kinney Method was analysed and the necessary precautions were listed. These measures are generally listed as; implementation of control protocols for the routine operation of the process, providing necessary occupational health and safety training for the personnel, providing the necessary information, repeating the training at regular intervals, following up the protective clothing and equipment to be used in the process, maintenance/repair of the units and the tools used. As a result of these measures, the degree of risk will be reduced to acceptable levels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
