Abstract

Work accident is one thing that must be prevented in the workplace. The risk of work accidents is very high in the welding workplace. This is because the workers use various sources of danger in the form of electricity gas and grinding. They also have the danger of the work environments in the form of heat, light, rays from welding processes, as well as noise and vibration. Workers in general are only armed with science potluck, and since it does not fit the standard, it eventually results in the fatal crash. This research aims to analyze the analytical survey of the application of the standard work of the most risky against a work accident in welding workshop. Cross sectional approach has been done on 45 workers in the welding workplace with a total sample of sampling techniques. Free variable consists of preparation of working tools, welding, uplift, and age with a work accident as the variable. The research instruments were questionnaires and checklist. The chi square test was used as the data analysis technique with borderline significance α = 0.05. To see the most risk factors, the researchers conducted multivariate Logistic Regression test. There are several results in this research: 1) there is a connection standard implementation of work tools with the preparation work accident, 2) there is a connection standard implementation on how to weld with a work accident, 3) there is a connection standard implementation on how to lift with a work accident, and 4) there is the relationship of age with the occurrence of accidents. The most at risk for the occurrence of accidents is in the preparation work done with the equipment. This means that if the standards of work preparation tools do not apply properly, the risk of accidents is higher. It is recommended to prepare all the tools work well and can actually be used and are also advised to maintain equipment properly and work according to the standard of work.
