Objective: Visitor safety is an essential aspect of swimming pool management because various hazards may lead to accidents. This study aims to identify potential hazards, assess visitor safety risks, and propose mitigation measures at Cihanjawar Swimming Pool, Purwakarta, using the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) and Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP) methods. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. HIRA was applied to identify hazards and assess risks based on likelihood and severity, while HAZOP analyzed causes, consequences, existing controls, and improvement recommendations. The results identified 10 major hazards, including six high-risk and four medium-risk categories. The highest risk was inadequate supervision by lifeguards and parents, with a risk score of 16, while the drowning risk scored 15. HAZOP analysis revealed that human factors, facility conditions, and the surrounding environment were the main causes of these risks. Recommended mitigation measures include increasing lifeguards, installing clearer safety signs, providing pool depth information, applying anti-slip flooring, repairing damaged facilities, and improving visitor safety education. The novelty of this study lies in integrating HIRA and HAZOP to provide a more comprehensive risk assessment and mitigation strategy.
