Abstract

The growing oil and gas industry is projected to prominently impact the lives and economies of modern communities around the world. Safety at work must be an implementation rather than a goal directed conduct. Accidents that arise from occupational health hazards have human, economic and social costs. This must not be a concern at only the individual level but also at the national and international level. This questionnaire examined the awareness of health hazards, the cognition of occupational casualties and disorders and actions taken to protect and/or audit dangers connected to these perils. Data from the questionnaire was analyzed by using descriptive statistics. In order to measure the agreement amongst responses for each question, Kendall's Coefficient of Concordance (W) was used. To estimate different health hazards and risks that normally occur in upstream activities, responses from participants of the questionnaire were used.
