Therefore, adequate OHS knowledge is crucial for establishing a safe workplace, preventing occupational accidents, and enhancing the overall quality of healthcare services. This study aims to determine and analyze the relationship between nurses' levels of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) knowledge and their compliance with the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at Puskesmas Wirang. A cross-sectional study design was employed. The study was conducted at Puskesmas Wirang with a sample of 15 nurses selected via purposive sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire.
