Enhancing Workplace Safety in Oil Refining: A Study on Contractor Safety Management Systems
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 07
Abstract
The phenomenon of workplace accidents in the oil and gas industry remains a significant threat, with the global Fatal Accident Rate (FAR) at 0.75 deaths per 100 million work hours in 2021. Indonesia, ranked 21st in global oil production, reported 634 workplace accidents in the upstream oil and gas sector from 2016 to 2021. To address these risks, the Indonesian government implemented the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SMK3) through Government Regulation No. 50 of 2012. This study evaluates the implementation of the Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS) at the PTPKI-RUK oil refinery in eastern Indonesia. A case study approach was employed, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews, surveys, field observations, and document analysis. Results indicate high knowledge and compliance with CSMS among managers and supervisors, but lower among field workers and contractors. While 10% of respondents reported minor workplace accidents, the perception of CSMS effectiveness is positive, with an average rating of 4.2. This study highlights the need for improved training, socialization, personal protective equipment, and communication between management and workers, offering recommendations for better CSMS implementation to enhance operational safety in the oil and gas sector.
