Model For Measuring The Level Of OHS Maturity Based On The Level Of Job Satisfaction

In the current electricity development project, the understanding of OSH does not seem to be fully implemented. One indication that the knowledge of OSH has not been fully implemented is that workers are still unaware of the hazards associated with their work. Based on these issues, the question is whether intrinsic factors (motivation) and extrinsic factors (hygiene) influence job satisfaction and worker performance in achieving zero accidents. This research will focus on how the measurement model can influence the OHS maturity level and what design strategies will be used to improve the OHS maturity level performance. This research aims to obtain a measurement model that can influence the OHS Maturity Level and provide a design strategy used to improve the OHS Maturity Level. The author uses quantitative methods and collects data from 516 PT PLN (Persero) UIP Nusa Tenggara Working Partners correspondents. Data testing methods include the measurement model test, structural equation model test, model accuracy test (goodness of fit), and hypothesis test. The results showed that job satisfaction variables, directly and indirectly, affect K3 Maturity Level performance. Therefore, a programme design is needed to maintain the K3 Maturity Level performance results and increase the value of the current K3 Maturity Level performance results. Policy-based programmes and communication-based programmes are the programme designs. These two programs aim to maintain and improve the value of the OHS Maturity Level performance. Keywords:hygiene factors, motivational factors, job satisfaction, OHS maturity level performance

Simplify Standard Operations Procedure Electrical Equipment with QR Codes in Order to Optimize Practical Learning at PT PLN (PERSERO) UPDL Palembang

PT PLN UPDL Palembang is one of the training units for all PLN employees in the southern Sumatra region. In organizing practicum learning, it is very important to ensure that all equipment used is covered by standard operating procedure (SOP) documents. The unavailability of SOP documents has the potential to result in work accidents for participants and learning instructors. In addition, the unavailability of SOP can result in damage to equipment. The unavailability of SOP documents is due to several things. Among them: its existence is unknown; the SOP is too large to be impractical; and the SOP is lost or damaged. Based on data from the last 10 years at PLN UPDL Palembang, there are 45 pieces of practicum equipment damaged because they did not follow SOP, or equivalent to Rp. 283,405,000. To ensure the SOPs are always available, they are made in digital and online form. The SOP document is then created as a QR code, which is printed in small size. The QR code sticker is affixed to the practice equipment. To use digital SOP, users only need to scan the QR code via smartphone on each device. One piece of equipment has one QR code.

Eligibility Study of Targeted Electricity Subsidies Using DBSCAN on 450 VA and 900 VA Households at PLN UP3 Bandung

Within each group, we analyzed two normalized versions of the dataset standard version and the minmax version. Furthermore, to assess the optimal clustering results, we integrated various metrics, including the Davies-Bouldin Index and Silhouette Score with visual assessment. After that, the best factor suggestions were sought through decision trees, by performing different decision tree classifiers for each power group, using normalized versions of cluster labels. The results showed that among the 50 features available in the raw dataset, it was successful in identifying key features, such as late fees, installment fees, electricity consumption, and bill charges to be important criteria

Predictive Maintenance for Electrical Substation Components Using K-Means Clustering: A Case Study

PT PLN (Persero) UP2D Kalselteng aims to provide reliable electricity supply, necessitating effective substation maintenance. This study proposes a predictive maintenance approach using K-means clustering on electrical current performance data from eight components in the Amuntai main electrical substation. The data undergoes preprocessing, including mapping to absolute z-scores to address electricity fluctuations. The K-means algorithm clusters performances, and models are evaluated using Silhouette scores. Results indicate the potential for predicting maintenance needs, as clusters align with real power outage data. The proposed method provides a proactive strategy for substation maintenance, enhancing system reliability. Feature combination experiments reveal that individual models for transformers and feeders are optimal. Hyperparameter tuning refines models, showcasing silhouette scores above 0.5, indicative of high-quality clusters. Comparisons with real-world power outage data validate the model's capability to identify anomalies, reinforcing the feasibility of the predictive maintenance approach. While the study demonstrates promise, on-field implementation and additional experiments are crucial for comprehensive validation and refinement of the predictive maintenance models.
