STRATEGIES TO INCREASE WORKERS' AWARENESS OF OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH FACTORS IN THE WARSHIP REPAIR INDUSTRY

Abstract

The success of the warship repair industry is inseparable from occupational safety and health factors. This study aims to identify and analyze the factors influencing the Warship Repair Industry at the Indonesian Navy Second Fleet Command, analyze the implementation of safety and health measures in warship repairs, and examine strategies to enhance worker awareness of occupational safety and health factors at the Indonesian Navy Second Fleet Command. This research utilizes a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, with the research subjects being work units and providers involved in warship maintenance and repair. Sampling was conducted purposively, with data collection techniques including observation, questionnaires, and in-depth interviews. Internal and external factor analysis was then carried out using the SWOT method. The study focused on work units and providers involved in warship repair at Koarmada II, such as the Warship Maintenance and Repair Department of Indonesian Navy Second Fleet Command (Disharkap Koarmada II), the Material and Supply Department of Indonesian Navy Second Fleet Command (Dismatbek Koarmada II), the Maintenance and Repair Facilities in Surabaya (Fasharkan Surabaya), the East Region Material Maintenance Unit (Satharmattim), and the East Region Material Readiness Unit (Satlaikmattim), as well as providers who won the warship repair tenders. Issues regarding work outcomes and completion times can be resolved by prioritizing strategies that emphasize occupational safety and health.
