High technology based production with the advent of industrialization has created some new issues. Foremost among them is the occupational health and safety. The facts that the business environment is particularly unsafe and puts health at risk have increased the importance of health and safety in work places. Measures in regards to work safety in the iron and steel sector are at the forefront of the issues that must be prioritized. It is crucial that job satisfaction levels of occupational health and safety specialists, who not only have good knowledge of both the workplace and the production process but also can determine, along with best safety measures, hazards related to the nature of work and production tools, are high so that they can work effectively and efficiently. Considering this factş a field study was done in order to measure job satisfaction levels of health and safety specialists working in the Black Sea Region. The data obtained from the questionaire with 379 samples was evaluated with factor analysis and then, it was analysed to see if there is variation by applying nonparametric Mann-Whitney U ve Kruskal-Wallis H tests. As a result of the analysis, it was found that job satisfaction levels of occupational health and safety specialists did not vary in respect to age, sex and OHG (Occupational Health Safety) certificate but varied in respect to occupational experience.
