Abstract

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is very important in the construction industry due to the high accident rate in this sector. One of the main measures to reduce the risk of accidents is to ensure that workers are compliant in using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that influence construction workers' level of compliance with the use of PPE. The method used in this research is a literature review, by reviewing various journals and scientific documents published in the last five years, utilising references from Google Scholar, Google Books, PubMed. The results showed that PPE compliance is influenced by four key factors, namely enabling factors (availability of PPE, training, safety orientation), predisposing factors (knowledge, behaviour), driving factors (supervision, motivation, social support), and individual factors (age, education, tenure). The availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that meets appropriate standards and provides comfort and ease of use greatly affects how compliant workers are in using it. In addition, factors such as lack of adequate training, discomfort in using PPE, and inappropriate attitudes are the main reasons for the low level of compliance. In addition, support from colleagues, close supervision, and effective communication also play an important role in improving compliance. In summary, efforts to improve the level of PPE compliance among construction workers need to involve the provision of appropriate PPE, continuous training, close supervision and emphasis on an overall safety culture.
