Work safety is a form of effort that aims to create a work environment that is safety and prevents various accidents. To improve work safety efforts, namely by using the correct Personal Protective Equipment according to applicable procedures. Personal Protective Equipment is work equipment that must be used by the crew when working on the ship. This study aims to examine the importance of the use of Personal Protective Equipment by ship crews during the discharging process. And also to find out the actions and efforts of ship officers to optimise the application of the use of personal protective equipment during discharging. The author uses a qualitative method with data collection techniques through data observation, interviews and finally documentation. The author examines how the application of Personal Protective Equipment during discharging to maintain crew safety on board MT NOLOWATI III. After conducting research and analysis, it is known that the use of personal protective equipment during the discharging process on the MT NOLOWATI III ship used by the crew does not meet the applicable standards as evidenced by several work accidents. The ship's officer's actions and efforts to optimise the implementation of the use of Personal Protective Equipment during loading and discharging have been optimised, but indeed the crew's awareness of the importance of safety culture is very low. This, needs to be given more optimal actions and efforts to the crew so that they can use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in order to realise and improve safety for themselves, and others
