Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is a critical factor in the smooth operation of a company, involving machinery, tools, the work environment, raw materials and their processing, as well as the employees themselves. The company's issues regarding OHS culture and the inadequate use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) can lead to the risk of workplace accidents when employees perform their tasks. This research utilizes the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) method, which plays a role in risk identification, and the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) approach to determine the direction for the implementation of risk management and OHS in the company. This study focuses on the production process of CV. XYZ, with 35 employees. Primary data were obtained through direct observation and interviews, which were then analyzed based on potential hazards discovered. The hazard identification results in the production floor revealed a total of 71 hazards, which include 23 potential hazards in the casting process, 26 potential hazards in the machining process, and 22 potential hazards in the finishing process. Based on these potential hazards, they can be classified into risk categories, including 27 (38%) potential hazards categorized as low risk, 30 (42%) potential hazards categorized as moderate risk, and 4 (6%) potential hazards categorized as high risk. Risk control measures include elimination, substitution, technical controls, administrative controls, and the use of PPE.
