Accident, Factors, Plywood, FactoryAbstract
This study analyses the factors causing work accidents of 89 workers in the production process of the Plywood factory. Using a quantitative, analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The study revealed a significant relationship between knowledge of PPE and workplace accidents in plywood factories (ρ = 0.027). Meanwhile, other variables like education level, age, gender, and length of service did not have a significant relationship with workplace accidents. This study was focused on worker behaviour, so it did not examine environmental and equipment factors. The results of this study can be used to improve the socialisation of using PPE.
