6.300 people die every day in the world due to work accidents or work-related diseases, in other words, this means more than 2.3 million deaths per year. In addition, 317 million occupational accidents occur annually, most of which are accidents resulting in long-term absenteeism from work. The humanitarian losses of these problems are very high, and their social and economic dimensions are also very high. It is estimated that the size of the economic losses occurred in terms of countries is around 4 percent of the total Gross National Product in the world.
As Istanbul Gelişim Vocational School (IGMYO) Occupational Health and Safety Department, we wholeheartedly congratulate all experts and expert candidates on April 28, World Occupational Health and Safety Day.
