Abstract

Since the pandemic that began in 2020, the industry in Indonesia has experienced enormous obstacles and has an impact on the industrial workers themselves, the Covid 19 infection rate in workers has reached 2 percent of the total number of infections in Indonesia and industrial areas. The purpose of this study was to see an overview of the application of occupational health and safety (OHS) in preventing the transmission of covid 19 at PT PKUA Bogor, West Java. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, literature study with secondary data, and interviews with employees of PT PKUA. The results obtained from this study are based on data from the company's OHS division and interviews with the Factory Manager, it is known that the number of workers infected with Covid 19 as of April 2021 was 8 people and those who were not infected were 119 people out of a total of 127 employees. The transmission that occurred within the company was not significant and there was no spread within the factory because the workers who were infected while on duty were out of town and did not form a factory cluster. In the company, from the HSE division report, it was found that employees were infected while on duty from out of town and came into contact with many people on their way to and from them. This research concludes that PT PKUA has done quite well to prevent the occurrence of factory clusters, the preventive measures taken have been in favor of the safety and health of industrial workers, especially in PT PKUA.
