Nilüfer OSGB: workplace physicians and OHS specialists in organised industrial zones
The head office of Bursa Sistemer is in Nilüfer, at Kale Plaza in the Üçevler neighbourhood. Six of Bursa’s 17 active OSBs also have their management offices in this district. We do not cover risk profiles ranging from automotive suppliers to textile dyehouses with a one-size-fits-all package; we plan plant by plant.

OHS at OSB scale in Nilüfer: one district, very different risks
According to the list updated in January 2026 by the Bursa Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BTSO), Bursa has 17 active organised industrial zones (OSBs). Six of them have their management offices in Nilüfer: Bursa OSB (BOSB), Nilüfer OSB (NOSAB), Hasanağa OSB (HOSAB), Kayapa OSB, TOSAB Bursa Textile Dyehouses Specialised OSB and Bursa Leather Specialised and Mixed OSB. That is why OSGB (joint health and safety unit) services in Nilüfer usually start on an OSB plot, in a busy production plant working in shifts.
Within the same district, the risk profiles could hardly be more different. BOSB has press, welding and paint lines run by automotive and mobility manufacturers. TOSAB carries out textile finishing: dyeing chemicals, hot water and steam, wet floors. At the Leather OSB in Badırga, the chemicals used in leather processing and wastewater stand out. In Kayapa and HOSAB, manufacturing plants from different sectors work side by side; one plot may house plastic injection moulding, the next metalworking.
This diversity also affects the hazard class calculation. In the NACE Rev.2.1 list renewed on 13 March 2025, textile bleaching and dyeing (13.30.01) was moved to the hazardous class; in the 2012 list it was very hazardous. A change of class alters, all at once, the obligation to appoint other health personnel (DSP), the duration of basic OHS training (16 teaching hours in the very hazardous class, 12 in the hazardous class), the interval for periodic medical examinations and the renewal period of the risk assessment. In dyehouses we carry this update through to every document.
When working in OSBs, we also take the zone’s own infrastructure into account. BOSB has a fire brigade and a disaster and emergency management unit; in your emergency plan we build the alarm and communication chain to fit with these units. Shared roads, loading areas and hazardous substances on the neighbouring plot are also included in the risk assessment as hazards that may come from outside.
Our head office is also in Nilüfer, at Kale Plaza on İzmir Yolu Caddesi, so the first meeting, the pre-contract site visit and the handover of documents can easily be done face to face. We schedule specialist and physician visits on days that do not clash with shift changes and the production plan, and we bring external services such as periodic inspections, arranged through our solution partners, and workplace environment measurements into the same schedule. Measurements are planned with authorised laboratories.

Key planning notes for Nilüfer
Class update for dyehouses
Bleaching and dyeing under code 13.30.01 is now in the hazardous class. We recalculate training hours, examination intervals and the need for DSP according to the new class.
The 2027 threshold for steam boilers
From 1 January 2027, periodic inspections of steam boilers will be carried out by accredited inspection bodies. We are already adjusting the inspection schedule in finishing plants accordingly.
Emergencies with OSB units
In zones with their own fire brigade, we align drills and the alarm chain with the OSB units, and we also write fires and leaks that may spread from neighbouring plots into the plan.
Records ready for supplier audits
In customer audits of automotive suppliers, OHS records may also be requested. We keep training, examination and near-miss records up to date and broken down by shift.

Frequently asked questions about OSGB services in Nilüfer
Our factory in the OSB has several buildings; is a single contract enough?
Appointments in İSG-KATİP (the Ministry’s OHS registration system) are made under the SGK workplace registration number. If the buildings on the same plot are registered as a single workplace, one contract is enough and the time is calculated on the total headcount. Workplaces with different registration numbers need separate appointments. We do, however, set up the visit plan separately for each building and shift.
Should we keep appointing DSP at our dyehouse in TOSAB?
If your main activity is only bleaching and dyeing (13.30.01), your class under the 2025 list is hazardous; the DSP requirement applies only to very hazardous workplaces with 10 or more employees. However, if another main activity in the very hazardous class is carried out at the same workplace, the higher class applies. We update the time and appointments in the contract together, according to your code.
BOSB has a fire brigade; do we still have to set up our own emergency teams?
Yes. The OSB fire brigade is external support; Art. 11 of Law No. 6331 on Occupational Health and Safety requires the employer to prepare an emergency plan and appoint a sufficient number of trained people. For each of the firefighting, rescue and protection teams, at least one support staff member is required for up to 40 employees in the hazardous class and up to 30 in the very hazardous class. We prepare the teams with the hands-on fire training we deliver.
Do you carry out workplace environment measurements yourselves?
Measurements are carried out by laboratories holding a proficiency or preliminary proficiency certificate from the Directorate General of Occupational Health and Safety (İSGGM); results from uncertified laboratories are invalid. We determine which parameters need measuring based on the risk assessment, plan the measurement with an authorised laboratory and enter the results into the risk assessment. The laboratory notifies İSG-KATİP of the measurement at least 3 days in advance.
Do you also serve our 12-person workshop in Kayapa or Hasanağa?
Yes. A small workshop inside an OSB is subject to the same obligations as a large factory; what differs is the monthly time and the scope of the documents. In small workplaces we tie visits to fixed days and split training into short sessions that do not interrupt the workflow.
