Abstract

Abstract PT. XYZ is a textile industry company located in Sukoharjo, Central Java. PT. XYZ produces 4 products, namely, yarn, greige, dyed and printed fabric, uniform and apparel. Based on initial observations, sources of danger were identified with a low hazard percentage of 11.7%, medium danger of 29.4%, high danger of 47.05%, and extreme danger of 11.7%. In effort to minimize workplace accidents, work accident analysis can be carried out using the Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP) method through ranking priorities. The study results found 17 hazards in the spinning division and can be categorized into four hazard classes. From the results of the risk level assessment, there are two hazard sources classified as extreme, eight hazard sources classified as high, five hazard sources classified as moderate risk, and two hazard sources classified as low risk. This study provides recommendations based on control hierarchy with examples of inspection form, signs or posters regarding the use and need for PPE, supervision (punishment system and reward), prohibition of entering the work area without wearing PPE or work cards, and engineering controls.
