Safety Analysis and Ship Recycling Yard Evaluation of Hong Kong International Convention for The Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships

Abstract

The condition of the Indonesian fleet, which is in its old age, allows ships to be recycled as the best solution. However, conditions in the field, there are still many ship recycling processes that do not obey the rules, especially on the effect of workers and also the effect on the environment. In Indonesia, there are still many ship recycling yards that do not pay attention to the effects on workers and the effects on the environment and most of them are still traditional shipyards. Therefore, one of the best solutions is to renew existing regulations, namely the Hong Kong International Convention for The Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships. When the implementation of this convention, the ship recycling shipyard must adjust to the convention. This study focused on the analysis of the assessment of the condition of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS). To evaluate the condition of the shipyard, the Gap Analysis method is by comparing the ideal conditions with the existing conditions at that time. The analysis is carried out using the Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Risk Control (HIRARC) method. This method is carried out by identifying hazards, which then provides a risk assessment and recommends how to control it. Based on result, risk matrix were obtained, which contained the assessment categories of Low, Moderate, High and Extreme. The results of this study through the gap analysis method, the average value is 2.1, which means that this value is still very low because the value of 0 - 2 is categorized as still many sub-clause indicators that do not exist or are not handled. Furthermore, in research using the HIRARC method, 60 risk matrices were obtained, which contained the assessment categories of Low, Moderate, High and Extreme.
