Analisis Faktor Penyebab Kecelakaan Kerja pada Pekerja Bagian Produksi PT. Pabrik Es Siantar Kota Pematangsiantar

Abstract

Workplace accidents are one of the unavoidable effects of workplace safety. Because they include equipment and glass, operations that produce soda drinks are among those that run the risk of workplace accidents. This study's goal was to identify the elements that contribute to workplace accidents among the production staff at PT Pabrik Es Siantar in Pematangsiantar City. A qualitative research methodology was applied. One major informant and six supporting informants were questioned indepth, and information was also gathered through observation. The study's findings indicate that five manufacturing workers who had workplace injuries were struck in the face, especially in the eyes, and scraped by bottle caps, broken glass, squeezed fingers in the bottle road, and bottle caps. Workplace accidents are caused by management elements like the OHS program, effective monitoring, and minimal non-compliance with OHS rules. Human aspects include worker understanding of the industrial process and its hazards, which is normally positive, but also physical exhaustion, especially in the neck. The work factor is that the SOP are followed in accordance with corporate standards, barriers exist while performing dangerous tasks (using PPE), particularly when PPE is not worn entirely, but there are no barriers when utilizing work equipment. Beverage filling equipment has drawbacks that are commonly problematic and risky condition elements (work equipment) that can break bottles. The survey claims that workplace accidents are most often caused by employee conversation while they are working. Other causes include poor management techniques, difficulties with equipment, such as machines that regularly experience damage that might result in glass bottles bursting, and uncooperative employees. It is anticipated that management would set up strict rules and sanctions for violators, launch OHS efforts including safety meetings, accident investigations, inspections, create SOP manuals, and schedule routine machine checks
