| Abstrakt: | Background: It is important to identify the hazards encountered by nurses before and after COVID-19, assess the potential risks and risk levels, take measures for the identified hazards and risks, and determine the effect of risk management on employee performance evaluation. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of hazard and risk management of nurses before and after COVID-19 on performance evaluation. Methods: The study consisted of two stages. The first stage had a descriptive design, while the second stage had a one-group pre-test and post-test design. The second stage of the study was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. There were 377 nurses who agreed to participate in the study in the first stage and 201 nurses in the second stage. The study data was collected via Information Form, Hazard and Risk Identification Form, and Employee Performance Scale (EPS). In the second stage of the study, training was provided using instruction cards called "Means of Protection Against Hazards and Risks" for potential moderate- and high-level hazards and risks existing after the pre-test. The post-test stage was conducted two weeks after the training. Mann-Whitney U Test, Kruskal-Wallis Test, and Spearman's correlation coefficients were used for statistical analyses of descriptive statistics. Results: The mean EPS score was found to be pre training 3,85±0,60, after training was found to be 3.92±0.55. Moreover, there was a weak negative correlation between pre- and post-training risk levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusion: Hazard and risk management training had a positive effect on the performance of employees. |
