The study was carried out between May-June 2014 with 109 adolescents attending the vocational training center and having agreed to participate in the study. Data obtained with questionnaire form were evaluated with number, percentage and chi-square tests. It was determined that 80.7% of adolescents participating in the study were male, 48.6% were in 14-17 age average, and 88.1% were secondary school graduates. It was also determined that 61.5% of adolescents had intermediate income, 65.1% had social insurance, and 93.5% were pleased with working as an apprentice. It was detected that 38.5% of adolescents participating in the study were exposed to emotional abuse, 14.7% to physical abuse, and 2.8% to sexual abuse in their workplaces. It was determined within those exposed to emotional abuse that 38% of these were humiliated in front of others, 26.9% were treated with swear-yelling. It was determined within those exposed to physical abuse that 37.5% of these were exposed to physical abuse as throwing a punch. While there was no statistical significance between exposure to physical and emotional abuse and age of adolescents (p˃0.05), a statistical significance was found with their genders (p˂0.05). It was determined that male apprentices were exposed to both physical and emotional abuse more. At the end of the study, it was detected that adolescents working as apprentices were exposed to emotional abuse more; and measures should be taken for prevention of exposure of these adolescents being in adolescence period which is a unsteady period in terms of psychological health. Özet Bu çalışmada, mesleki eğitim merkezine devam eden gençlerin iş yerinde istismara uğrama sıklığı ve etkileyen faktörlerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Araştırma; mesleki eğitim merkezine devam eden ve çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 109 genç ile Mayıs - Haziran 2014 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. Anket formu ile elde edilen veriler sayı, yüzdelik ve ki-kare testleri ile değerlendirildi. Araştırmaya katılan gençlerin %80.7 sinin erkek, %48.6’sının 14-17 yaş aralığında, %88.1’inin ortaokul mezunu oldukları belirlendi. Gençlerin %61.5’inin orta seviyede gelire sahip olduğu, %65.1’inin sosyal güvencesinin olduğu ve %93.5’inin çırak olarak çalışmaktan memnun oldukları belirlendi. Araştırmaya katılan gençlerin %38.5’inin çalıştıkları işyerlerinde duygusal istismar, %14.7’sinin fiziksel ve %2.8’inin cinsel istismara maruz kaldıkları saptandı. Duygusal istismara uğrayanların %38’inin başkasının yanında küçük düşürüldüğü, %26.9’unun küfür-bağırma ile muamele gördüğü belirlendi. Fiziksel istismara maruz kalanların %37.5’inin yumruk atılması şeklinde fiziksel istismara maruz kaldıkları belirlendi. Gençlerin fiziksel ve duygusal istismara uğrama durumları ile yaş arasında istatistiksel anlamlılık yok iken (p˃0.05) cinsiyetleri ile arasında istatistiksel anlamlılık (p˂0.05) bulundu. Erkek çırakların hem fiziksel hem de duygusal istismara daha çok maruz kaldıkları belirlendi. Çalışma sonucunda genel olarak çırak olarak çalışan gençlerin daha çok duygusal istismara maruz kaldıkları saptanmış olup ruh sağlığı açısından çalkantılı olan ergenlik dönemindeki bu gençlerin istismara uğratılmaması için önlemler alınmalıdır.
