Abstract

This research aims to examine the level of safety culture in the accommodation sector and the factors that affect it. In this study, NOSACQ-50 questionnaire was applied as a measurement tool to 200 accommodation sector employees to investigate occupational safety culture of the participants. Six research questions were analyzed. The collected data were evaluated with the SPSS 25 program. Independent t tests and one-way variance analysis were applied to determine the significance level of the relationship between the participants' responses to the questionnaire and the research questions. The results from the safety culture questionnaire were addressed under 3 categories: the occupational health and safety (OHS) awareness of management, the OHS awareness of employees, and the OHS training knowledge of employees. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between the management's OHS awareness and the employees' OHS awareness scores. Besides, a statistically significant relationship was determined between employees' occupational health and safety awareness and their professional experiences.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı konaklama sektöründe güvenlik kültürü düzeyi ve güvenlik kültürünü etkileyen faktörlerin neler olduğunu incelemektir. Bu çalışmada ölçüm aracı olarak NOSAC-Q-50 güvenlik kültürü anketi 200 konaklama sektörü çalışanına uygulanarak katılımcıların iş sağlığı ve güvenliği (İSG) kültürü seviyesi incelenmiştir. Toplanan veriler, SPSS 25 programında değerlendirilmiş ve altı adet araştırma sorusu analiz edilmiştir. Katılımcıların iş sağlığı ve güvenliği kültürü anketine verdiği cevaplar ile araştırma soruları arasındaki ilişkinin anlamlılık düzeyini belirlemek için bağımsız-t testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi yapılmıştır. Güvenlik kültürü anketinden elde edilen sonuçlar yöneticilerin İSG farkındalığı, çalışanların İSG farkındalığı ve çalışanların İSG eğitim bilgisi olarak 3 kategori altında ele alınmıştır. Yönetimin İSG farkındalığı ile çalışanların İSG farkındalığı puanları arasında pozitif ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca çalışanların İSG farkındalıkları ile mesleki deneyimleri arasında istatistikçe anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır.
