In the Ottoman Period starting from the declaration of the Reform, the general status of the country about mining and the lacknesses were determined. In a way, the importance of mining industry was understood. In the same period, mining issues were reorganised besides the improvement in every field. At the end of all developments, the first legal organisation was done by Field Regulation declared in 1858. Up to that date, no serious and radical legal regulation was encountered about mining. Following this regulation, a second regulation called Mining Regulation was prepared in 1862 based on the French Mining Law. After the declaration of this new regulation the mining issues were reorganised. However, the working life of the miners was disregarded again in this regulation. The issues about the working life of the miners were first mentioned in Ereğli Kömür Maden-i Hümayun İdaresi Nizamnamesi declared in 1867. The rules of this regulation were applied to the mining sector until 1921. In the mentioned regulation, the working, sleeping and the resting hours of the miners, the food, wages and health problems and the responsibilities of the mine owners were determined. Nevertheless, these rules were not put into application because of many reasons. All these lacknesses were tried to be deleted in the period starting from the declaration of Republic. When the Turkish Grand National Assembly opened, the conditions of the miners were discussed and then the neccessary and important alterations were made such as the regulation in working conditions, protecting the miners’health, helping the miners and exempting the miners from the taxes.},author={Turgut İLERİ},year={2013},journal={The Journal of Academic Social Science Studies}}
