dc.description.abstractTurkish Petroleum Corporation (TPAO) has exploration, drilling, production and well completion, natural gas storage, oil and natural gas pipeline project activities in the oil sector. There are critical hazards in the petroleum industry. Identifying the hazards and implementing the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) to minimize the risks and prevent the accidents/injuries are effective methods to control hazards. This research was focused on the hazard identification, risk assessment and employee awareness and competence following the voluntary standard, OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Standard. These risk assessments were related especially to working at height and emergency preparedness on the processes.en_US
