Recommendative Study for Handling Potential Occupational Accident Hazards among Workers at PT. XYZ

Studi Rekomendatif Untuk Penanganan Potensi Bahaya Kecelakaan Kerja Pada Pekerja PT. XYZ

Abstract

PT XYZ is a precast concrete manufacturing industry with a high risk of occupational accidents due to heavy equipment usage and high-intensity production processes. This study aims to identify potential hazards, assess occupational accident risk levels, and analyze the root causes of high-risk and fatal workplace accidents in the precast concrete production process. This original research was conducted through field observations and worker interviews using the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA). The results indicate that most production activities fall into the high-risk category, particularly during mold lifting, stressing, and rotating machinery operations. FTA analysis shows that accidents are caused by equipment failures, unsafe procedures, unsafe behaviors, and inadequate supervision. Companies are advised to undertake several improvement efforts to minimize the risk of work accidents in the production area.
