Abstract

Work hazards and risks are closely related to occupational activities and have the potential to cause injuries and occupational diseases. Every workplace carries the risk of accidents, as reflected in data from Indonesia's Work Accident Insurance Program (JKK BPJS Ketenagakerjaan). The number of workers experiencing fatalities due to occupational accidents and diseases decreased from 4,007 cases in 2019 to 3,410 cases in 2020 but increased again to 6,552 cases in 2021. This study aims to assess occupational health and safety risk management using the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method among workers at the Makassar Health Quarantine Center. This descriptive study involved a population of 133 workers, with a sample of 57 workers selected using simple random sampling. Data were collected using the HIRARC questionnaire and analyzed using univariate analysis. The results showed that the majority of respondents were aged 40–49 years (57.9%), and 73.7% worked more than 8 hours per day when assigned to night shifts. The HIRARC assessment identified that the most common occupational hazard experienced by workers was ergonomic risk, with complaints of back, waist, and shoulder pain, classified as a moderate risk. In conclusion, ergonomic hazards pose a significant issue among workers, categorized as a moderate risk level. Therefore, it is recommended that the Makassar Health Quarantine Center enhance its occupational health and safety risk management and conduct regular evaluations of workplace hazards and risks.
