Abstract

Data from the Central Social Security Agency for 2021 shows the number of work accidents in the forestry sector is 20.7%. If a person's perception of risk is bad, then the behavior that arises tends to ignore the risk exposure. There were 16 work accidents at PT Tiga Mustika Agung in 2020. This study aims to determine the factors associated with the perception of occupational safety and health in workers at PT Tiga Mustika Agung. The research design was cross sectional. The study was conducted at PT Tiga Mustika Agung on January 24 to 30, 2022. The research population was all 100 employees at PT Tiga Mustika Agung, while the research sample was 50 employees at PT Tiga Mustika Agung. Samples were taken by simple random sampling technique. The research instrument is a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by chi-square test. The results showed that 46.0% of respondents had poor OHS perceptions, 54.0% of respondents had poor knowledge, 46.0% of respondents had poor attitudes and 38.0% of respondents had poor motivation. The results of statistical tests showed that there was a relationship between knowledge (p=0.020) and attitude (p=0.005) with perceptions of occupational safety and health.
