Environmental Measurement and Tests

The first goal in conducting environmental tests and analysis is to minimize existing risks by preventing possible work accidents and occupational diseases. Unfortunately, more than 250 million employees are damaged every year in the world due to occupational accidents and more than 160 million employees are damaged due to occupational diseases. When compared to the world population, these numbers are very high only on the basis of occupational accidents and occupational diseases. According to International Labor Organization (ILO) sources, more than 1 million workers die every year in the world. In our country, there are around 80 thousand occupational accidents every year and around a thousand occupational diseases are observed. More than a thousand employees die. In addition, it is calculated that 2 million working days are lost due to occupational accidents and diseases. Considering the cost of this, the ratio of the total cost of occupational accidents and occupational diseases to the gross national product is at most 3 percent in industrialized countries, while this rate is 5 percent in our country.

According to the existing legal regulations, occupational disease is a temporary or permanent physical and mental disturbance of the employees due to a repeated reason or the conditions of the activity depending on the nature of the work done. Chemical, physical or biological factors are effective in the occurrence of occupational diseases. In this respect, workplace environment measurements are important. The main environmental measurements made in this context are:

  • Thermal comfort measurements (temperature and humidity measurements of the working environment)
  • Noise and vibration measurements
  • Light intensity measurements
  • Gas and chemical measurements in the environment
  • Dust measurements (gravimetric or particle counting methods with total dust or specific dust measurements)
  • Radiation measurements

For example, thermal and humidity measurements made within the scope of thermal comfort measurements are made to determine the physical conditions required in some sectors. The humidity values ​​of the production environment in the textile sector are kept technologically high. In some workplaces, moisture is due to activity. The dry temperature is high in some work places. The fact that the temperature or humidity is too high and too low, as well as poor ventilation conditions force employees to work in an uncomfortable environment, which increases the risk of illness and work accidents. Therefore, it decreases the efficiency of the enterprise.

Noise is the most common physical situation in enterprises. It causes many problems, ranging from hearing loss, loss of productivity, to increased work accidents, as well as mentally affecting employees.

Like many testing and inspection bodies, our organization also provides a range of measurement, testing, analysis, inspection and control services within the context of environment analysis. The main services provided in this context are:

  • Clean room tests
  • Air microbiology tests
  • Occupational health and safety analysis
  • Thermal comfort measurement
  • Lighting measurement
  • Dust measurement
  • Operating environment noise measurement
  • Measurement of chemical exposure
  • Ambient gas measurement
  • Measurement of vibration exposure

Supervision of working environments is being ensured by existing legal regulations and many published standards. In these studies, it is necessary to carry out risk analysis, to make necessary environmental measurements, to prepare emergency and protection plans and to perform regular inspections.

Our organization From ÖSAS Accreditation Agency, Based on the accreditation authority obtained in accordance with TS EN ISO / IEC 17025 standard, it conducts the analysis of the environment.
