After the year 2012, the number of occupational and fatal accidents had increased more than twice. The occupational accidents have occurred at the highest rates in the most populated and industrialized two cities in Turkey. Economic activities having the highest percentage of occupational accidents has been determined and interpretated. Conclusion- Occupational accidents can be reduced by taking effective and preventive measures. There are some tasks that should be fulfilled in order to create a secure work place by employers and employees. Employers should apply occupational health and safety legislation and take preventative measures and train the employers regularly against work related accidents. Furthermore, employees should be conscious and careful about the accidents and fulfill their obligations regarding to work safety while working. Public institutions should work more on creating a secure work place and creating a culture of work safety.en_US
