Orman yangın işçilerinin iş kıyafetlerinden memnuniyet düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi

Özet: Günümüzde toplumun iş sağlığı ve güvenliğine verdiği önemin artması ve 4857 sayılı iş kanunu gereğince iş yerlerinde iş kıyafetlerinin kullanımı ön plana çıkarmıştır. Ormancılık faaliyetleri; açık havada, zor çalışma koşullarında ve çok değişik risk faktörlerinin etkisi altında gerçekleştirilmektedir. Orman işçilerinden en fazla risk altında olanlar, orman yangınlarının söndürülmesi ve soğutulması faaliyetlerinde çalışan yangın işçileridir. Bu işçilerin büyük bölümü sözleşmeli işçi statüsündeki kişilerdir. İşçiler yangın sezonunda her an yangına acil müdahaleye gitmek durumunda kalmaları nedeniyle genellikle orman içerisindeki barakalarda konaklarlar ve gün boyu iş kıyafetlerini giyerler. İşçilerin kıyafetleri parlak renkte ve ateşe karşı dayanıklı malzemeden yapılırlar. Bu kıyafetlerin orman içerisinde rahat hareket etmeyi sağlaması, hava hallerine karşı etkinliği ve işçilerin vücut yapılarına uygunluğu iş güvenliği açısından çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmada, orman yangın işçilerinin iş kıyafetlerinden memnuniyet durumları değerlendirilmiştir. Bu amaçla hepsi erkek olan 44 orman yangın işçisine memnuniyet düzeyi belirleme anketleri uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler değerlendirilerek işçilerin memnuniyetsizlik duydukları durumlar ortaya konulmuş ve çözüm önerileri geliştirilmiştir.
