Abstract :Public health workers who are actively undertaking their work duties during the Covid 19 pandemic period are extremely worn out due to the hectic work schedules and the risks they face. The results indicated that employees were not aware that the management staff takes further risk than it should and that the institutional/operational risk can be controlled. Regarding the high motivation and the meaning of the work, there was a consensus that the evaluation of risk management by independent consultants is expected to improve the activity of risk management process. It has been found that there is a correlation between the meaning of work and administrative risk perception. Public health workers believed that their managers were not very efficient in corporate and operational risk management during the pandemic period. Thus, our study ascertains that, during risky periods such as pandemics, actions should be taken according to predetermined strategies and action plans, additionally, in crises, risk management in health sector should be taken into consideration, not only in terms of disease-based, but also in terms of organizational management.Keywords : Public health workers, Managerial risk, Risk management, Health organization, Internal Control
