Abstract

Workers can reduce the likelihood of workplace injury or illness through the use of PPE, or personal protective equipment. Workers' knowledge, attitudes, motivation, supervision, and level of comfort are some of the variables that are expected to be identified in this study as factors that influence their compliance with PPE usage requirements. Through the use of a cross-sectional design , this study approach combines quantitative research with analytical observational research. The research was conducted from November 2023 to December 2023 at PT Semen Padang. 139 workers from the Indarung V factory of PT Semen Padang became the research population. The number of individuals sampled was 58 people referring to the Lemeshow formula . Sampling was carried out by simple randomization. To obtain variable data, surveys and direct interviews were used. Secondary and primary data are used by data providers. Research indicates a correlation between knowledge, attitude, motivation, and supervision (p=0.000, p=0.000, and p=0.000 respectively). At the same time, there was no correlation between workers' comfort levels (p=0.164) and their compliance with PPE usage regulations. Knowledge, attitude, motivation, and supervision were determined to be four interrelated factors, whereas comfort was determined to be one irrelevant factor.
