Chemical –based Occupational safety risk analysis in the process of production and handling chemicals
Keywords:
Hirarc, Hazard Identification, Risk AssessmentAbstract
Work safety in the chemical industry is the main concern given the high potential hazards caused by hazardous chemicals. This study aims to analyze the risk of chemical -based work safety that occurs during the production process and handling hazardous chemicals in the industrial environment.
The construction industry refers to the industrial sector related to physical development such as buildings and infrastructure. The improvement strategy refers to the steps taken to improve and strengthen K3 awareness and implementation in the construction industry. In this study, various related literature has been analyzed to identify an increase strategy that can be applied in the context of the construction industry. Some of the strategies found include: effective K3 training and education, the application of strict K3 regulations and policies, the use of technology and innovation to improve work safety, the formation of a strong safety culture in the workplace, and collaboration between related partiesLike companies, workers, and government. It is hoped that the strategy to increase K3 awareness and implementation in the construction industry can make a significant contribution in maintaining health and safety. This study aims to identify hazards and evaluate risks in the environment
Basic Chemical Laboratory at the Kalimantan Institute of Technology and provides risk control recommendations. This laboratory has an important role in student education in understanding the basic concepts of chemistry and developing practical skills. However, activities in the laboratory also bring potential hazards that can endanger the safety of students and staff. This research method using an observational and analytical approach. The observational approach is used to identify potential hazards, assess risks, and evaluate risks associated with these hazards. The results showed that there were a variety of hazards in the laboratory, including physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic hazards. Risk analysis shows that most danger has a high risk. Therefore, the recommendations for risk control are proposed, including changes in the regulation of work areas, the use of personal protective equipment, and tighter inspection procedures. This study provides an in-depth understanding of the dangers and risks in the basic chemical laboratory and concrete steps to improve safety in the environment. The implementation of this recommendation is expected to reduce the risk of work accidents and create a safer and better work environment for all those involved in the learning and research process in the basic chemical laboratory
