Such packaging errors during sorting can lead to workplace accidents.The objective of this research is to assess the B3 waste management system at RSUD Pasaman Barat, focusing on whether the processes of sorting, packaging, storage, and transportation comply with Permen LHK No. 56 of 2015, which outlines the procedures and technical requirements for managing hazardous and toxic waste from healthcare facilities. This research employs a qualitative method to evaluate the management system of hazardous and toxic waste (B3). The findings indicate that RSUD Pasaman Barat generates an average of 1,740.51 kg of B3 waste per month. Overall, the processes involved in managing B3 waste at RSUD Pasaman Barat-from sorting and packaging to transportation and temporary storage-still exhibit several non-compliances with Permen LHK No. 56 of 2015.]]>
