ANALISIS RISIKO K3 DENGAN METODE HIRARC PADA PROSES BENDING SEMI FINISH PLATE BUMPER HM400 KOMATSU DI PT. KHARISMA LOGAM UTAMA BEKASI

Abstract

The increasing competition in the industrial sector has driven companies to enhance productivity while maintaining the safety standards. PT. Kharisma Logam Utama (KLU), a manufacturing company specializing in metal and machinery components, is a key partner for PT. Komatsu Indonesia, producing parts for heavy equipment such as the KOMATSU HM400 articulated dump truck. The bending process of semi-finished plates, an essential step in bumper production, poses significant risks to worker safety. This study aims to analyze occupational health and safety (OHS) risks using the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method. Data collection was conducted through direct observation and interviews over August to September 2024. The findings highlight that most risks in the bending area are categorized as Level II (acceptable with monitoring), constituting 45% of identified activities. Level I risks, deemed acceptable, made up 35%, while Level III (problematic, requiring immediate action) constituted 15%. The highest risk level, IV (unacceptable), accounted for 5% and demands urgent corrective measures due to potential serious injuries or fatalities. The analysis identified mechanical hazards such as cuts, pinches, and material falls as prevalent. Implemented controls included personal protective equipment (PPE) like anti-impact gloves, safety boots, and safety goggles, alongside procedural guidelines. The application of the HIRARC method proved effective in prioritizing risk mitigation measures and improving workplace safety, ultimately contributing to a safer production environment.
