Abstract


Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a tool used to protect oneself or the body against occupational hazards and diseases. The complete use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is deemed unimportant by the Public Refueling Station (SPBU) Operator. This is because knowledge is still not good, there is no training, there is no complete availability of PPE, and complete supervision of the use of PPE, so that gas station operators do not use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when they work. The purpose of this study is to explain various things related to the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) by the Suak Puntong SPBU Operator, Kuala Pesisir District, Nagan Raya Regency. This research is a qualitative research with a phenomological strategy. The number of informants in this study was 4 people consisting of 3 main informants and 1 supporting informant and was conducted at the Suak Puntong SPBU from 14 September to 1 October 2017. The results showed that there was still a lack of knowledge on PPE, no special training on the use of PPE, the absence of complete PPE availability by the SPBU, and the supervision carried out by the SPBU on the use of PPE. And it is hoped that the head of the General Fuel Filling Station (SPBU) will provide special training, and provide complete Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), especially for gas station operators.
