Abstract

Construction projects in Indonesia continue to face high rates of workplace accidents due to inadequate implementation of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) systems. This study aims to analyze how the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method can be effectively applied in the Rubaru 1 Elementary School construction project to minimize risks and improve workplace safety. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through field observations, interviews, and documentation studies over six months. The research identified multiple hazards categorized by severity: six major risks, three high risks, and six medium risks. These included hazards from working at heights, exposure to chemicals, and improper use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Risk controls were implemented through administrative strategies (training, supervision), engineering controls (equipment modifications, warning signs), and mandatory PPE usage. The results showed that the HIRARC method is effective in systematically identifying and mitigating construction-related hazards. However, its success is influenced by the discipline of workers and management’s commitment to supervision. The findings emphasize the need for continuous evaluation and structured training programs to enhance OSH compliance and cultivate a safety-oriented culture in construction environments.

Abstract

This research addresses the critical issue of insufficient budget allocation for Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) systems in construction projects, specifically in the Rubaru 1 Elementary School building project in Sumenep District, Indonesia. The study explores how limited financial resources for safety measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE), worker training, and health facilities, affect the implementation and effectiveness of OHS systems. The urgency of this research lies in the growing need to allocate adequate resources to OHS, as insufficient funding increases the risk of workplace accidents, delays project timelines, and raises costs. Previous studies, including Lestari et al. (2023) and Saragi & Sinaga (2021), have emphasized the positive impact of adequate OHS budgets on reducing accidents and improving productivity. However, a gap exists in research regarding the specific cost components required for effective OHS implementation, especially in relation to construction projects with limited budgets. This study fills this gap by analyzing the key cost components for OHS and their direct impact on worker safety and project performance. The findings will provide valuable insights for construction companies to optimize their OHS budgets and enhance safety measures. It also contributes to the development of industry standards and practices for OHS management in future construction projects.
