Analysis of the Occupational Health and Safety (K3) System in Reducing the Number of Work Accidents in the Bahyangkari Building Construction Project of the Lamongan Police

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Occupational Safety and Health (K3) in an effort to reduce the number of work accidents in the construction project of the Bahyangkari Building of the Lamongan Police Department. K3 is a system that aims to create a safe and healthy work environment, as well as minimize the potential for accidents in the field. This study uses a quantitative method with a survey approach by distributing questionnaires to 84 respondents consisting of workers, foremen, and project supervisors. The data obtained were analyzed using SPSS software version 27 through validity and reliability tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, and F-tests. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of K3 has generally been running well. Of the three main variables studied, namely K3 policy, work environment conditions, and worker safety, only environmental conditions were proven to have a partial significant effect on the number of work accidents. However, simultaneously, all three variables had a significant effect on reducing the number of work accidents in the project. These findings confirm that a well-organized work environment and consistent implementation of K3 are very important in creating a safe construction project.
