The concept of performance is the most supporting tool in conducting the control function in business management. While the amount of input and products in the forest industry in Turkey is rising, institutionalization is inadequate. This study attempts to methodologically develop and test scales for perceived institutionalization and perceived performance in furniture and panel businesses, which are two sub-sectors of the forest industry. Data was obtained in 35 cities between March and July 2017, through face-to-face interviews with 797 employees in 462 furniture businesses and 31 panel businesses. In the analysis of the study, content validity of the scales was evaluated through expert opinion and initial application, while construct validity was assessed by EFA and CFA. Cronbach alpha coefficient, CR, and AVE were used to evaluate reliability, while the suitability of perceived institutionalization and performance scale model was assessed through SEM. The scales have high reliability and validity, and an improvement in the institutionalization level of a business will result in improvements in performance (r=0.98). Through this methodological study, scales for perceived institutionalization and perceived performance in furniture and panel businesses operating in Turkey and the relationship between perceived institutionalization and perceived performance were explained by a model.Öğe Hastane işyeri ortaminin ergonomik analizi: Düzce’de bir kamu hastanesi örneği(2024) Gedik, Tarik; Görgün, HarunYapılan bu çalışma ile Düzce ilinde bir kamu hastanesinde çalışanlarca kullanılan mobilyaların ergonomik açıdan kullanıcıya uygunluğunun araştırılması hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla elde edilen ve yorumlanan veriler ile hastane çalışanlarının kullandıkları mobilyaları daha ergonomik kullanımına imkân sağlanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında hemşire, ebe, sağlık memuru ve polikliniklerde görevli çalışanlardan oluşan 242 çalışana yüz yüze görüşme yöntemiyle ulaşılmış ve veri alınmıştır. Elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel değerlendirilmesi sonucunda katılımcıların %26,4’ünün ergonomik çalışma koşulları konusunda herhangi bir bilgilerinin olmadığı, %45 oranında ise kısmen bilgilerinin olduğu belirlenmiştir. Katılımcıların çalışma alanlarının ergonomik tasarımları ile ilgili olarak en çok memnuniyet duydukları durum gerekli görülen yerlerde yeterli miktarda antiseptik ve dezenfektan maddesinin varlığıdır. Bunun yanında katılımcılar mahremiyeti sağlamak için gerekli bölmelerin varlığından, çalışma alanlarının düzenli temizliğinin yapılmasından, çalışma alanlarının yeterince aydınlatılmasından da memnuniyet duymaktadırlar. Katılımcıların elektrik kablolarının güvenli bir şekilde toplanıp toplanmamasından, oturulan koltukların uygun olup olmamasından, ofis sıcaklığının uygun olup olmamasından en az düzeyde rahatsızlık duydukları belirlenmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında çalışanların çalışma ortamlarına bağlı olarak yaşadıkları en temel sağlık sorunlarının genel yorgunluk ve bitkinlik hissi olduğu, bunu bel ve sırt ağrıları ve stresin takip ettiği tespit edilmiştir.Öğe Research on factors affecting the risk-taking behavior of personnel working in the forest products sector(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Cil, Muhammet; Gedik, TarikObjectives. The fact that occupational accidents are a permanent problem in the forest products sector encouraged this research to be conducted on the factors affecting the risk-taking behavior (RTB) of employees in the sector. Understanding the RTB of employees in the sector would help managers to reduce occupational accidents and to develop effective safety interventions. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the effects of individual, organizational and workplace factors and sub-factors on the RTB of employees by using the structural equation model (SEM). Methods. A survey was conducted on 623 employees of the forest products sector in 64 enterprises in the provinces of Duzce, Bolu, Sakarya, Kocaeli and Yalova. Results. The results revealed that organizational and workplace factors had a significant effect on the RTB of the employees. However, no effect was found for individual factors, although the sub-factor of cognitive bias had a positive impact on RTB. In contrast, safety climate, safety training, use of personal protective equipment (PPE)-1 and working conditions negatively impacted the RTB of the employees. Conclusions. In terms of occupational health and safety, this study could serve to guide both sector managers and decision-makers on ways to improve the safety perception of their employees.
