Studi Kualitatif Perilaku Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja pada Pegawai Klinik Esther PKBI Sulawesi Utara
Abstract
Esther Clinic PKBI North Sulawesi is a health service facility that provides specialized
health services such as counseling and family planning services, pregnancy counseling
and examination services, HIV/STI counseling services, reproductive health counseling
services, gender-based violence counseling services, and family health counseling
services for prospective brides. This study aims to determine the occupational health and
safety (OHS) behavior of employees at the Esther Clinic PKBI North Sulawesi. The
assessment aspects consist of knowledge, attitudes, and practices concerning OHS. The
research is qualitative, utilizing observation methods and in-depth interviews. Informants
were selected using purposive techniques from the accessible population. There were five
informants, consisting of one Clinic Manager, two Nurses, one Counselor, and one
Administrative Staff member. The knowledge and attitude aspects of informants were
generally good, but there were still discrepancies in OHS practices. The lack of
awareness regarding the use of Personal Protective Equipment is one of the OHS
practices that is not yet effective. OHS training has never been conducted, which affects
the OHS practices of clinic employees. It is recommended that clinic leaders hold OHS
training for all employees of the Esther Clinic PKBI North Sulawesi. The effect of such
training can improve safe and healthy work behaviors.
