For this reason, marble quarries are divided into seven in terms of working conditions and active six quarries both in Carrara and Iscehisar areas, and work safety behaviours are analysed. Analysis process is based on True False method; there are 18 items in total under six main topics; three items on each topic. The safety index for each section and the main topics are also calculated.
