Özet:

 




Logging
operations are generally listed in the most dangerous work groups since they
require very heavy and difficult tasks. Besides, they are performed in varying,
unpredictable, and uncontrolled work environment. In Turkey, traditional
logging operations with limited usage of mechanized harvesting systems
potentially increase occupational health and work safety problems. On the other
hand, the logging operations can become even more dangerous during timber
salvage activities after fire because regular work conditions dramatically
change and work environment may carry different risks in fire-damaged stands.
In this study, it was aimed to evaluate risk factors associated with post-fire
salvage logging operations considering occupational health and safety problems.
By synthesizing previously conducted studies and works, potential risk factors
in regular logging operations were presented and then additional risk factors
related with salvage logging operations were discussed. Finally, some
suggestions were provided to reduce risks associated with post-fire salvage
logging operations.
