The Importance Placed on Environment and Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) at Erkunt Sanayi A.Ş.

In both developed and developing countries, a significant portion of the population consists of employees. With increasing technological advancements and industrialization, working conditions in many workplaces have begun to deteriorate, negatively impacting occupational health and safety and, consequently, human well-being. As work-related accidents and occupational diseases rise due to poor working conditions, particularly industrialized nations have intensified efforts to improve occupational health and safety. Alongside these efforts, substantial work has been undertaken—and continues—to strengthen regulatory and inspection mechanisms.

Occupational health, which in a narrow sense focuses on preventing work accidents and occupational diseases and in a broader sense aims to protect employee health and ensure safe working environments, is today commonly addressed within the broader concept of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS). The fundamental principle of OHS lies in understanding the relationship between employees' health and the nature of their work.

At Erkunt Sanayi A.Ş., we place great importance on Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental responsibility as an integral part of our corporate structure. Below, you may access our reports related to these focus areas.
