Abstract: Human behavior related to safety is an approach to analyze what is needed to make safe behavior to reduce
risky behavior. This research was conducted to find out analyzing the factors related to the safety behavior
of ironworkers in the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total Bangun Persada in 2019. This research uses a
quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. Data collection methods with questionnaires,
interviews, and observations. Sampling is done by a simple random sampling technique for ironworkers.
Bivariate results with Chi-Square test stated that there was a significant relationship between attitude (PR =
1,732; CI = 1,076- 2,789), perception (PR = 2,021; CI = 1,245 - 3,282), supervision (PR = 1,816; CI = 1,129
- 2,921 ) to the safety behavior of ironworkers in the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project of PT. Total Bangun
Persada in 2019. While there is no relationship between knowledge, regulations. The researcher suggests
that the HSE increase the K3 promotion program to workers, foremen, and supervisors so that they are more
aware of behaving safely and carrying out their duties in accordance with their responsibilities.
1 INTRODUCTION
The construction industry is an industry that
provides construction services that contribute a
significant role in national development and is one
of the significant contributing sectors to workplace
accidents (Rijanto, 2010). The construction industry
has unique characteristics which are different work
locations, open, weather influenced, limited
implementation time, dynamic, high physical
endurance demands, and many uses of untrained
labor, involving a large workforce, and industrial
construction has many hazards and risks in its type
of work. The biggest hazards include falling, falling
over objects, being shocked, and fires. With the
characteristics and scope as above, the construction
industry is one that constructs the causes of work
accidents (Taylor et al, 2006)Industrial work is a job
that is dense with activities with a high level of risk,
such as the work of lifting heavy objects, working at
height, as well as work in confined spaces. The
effects of these jobs in the event of an accident,
including damage to the equipment used, loss of life
of workers and the latter effect is called fatality.
Overall these effects will affect the project
completion schedule, as well as the swelling of
construction costs (Dewobroto, 2007).Based on data
from the International Labor Organization (ILO) in
2017 that every year more than 1.1 million people
die due to work accidents or work-related diseases in
Asia and the Pacific. Accidents and illnesses caused
by work not only affect the productivity and profits
of the company. Asian, Pacific governments,
workers and employers are increasing their efforts to
prevent and prevent illness in the workplace (ILO,
2017). Based on data from the Social Security
Organizing Agency (BPJS), employment figures for
work accidents in Indonesia tend to continue to
increase. A total of 110,272 cases of work accidents
were recorded throughout 2016 or an increase in
work accidents by about 10% compared to 2017
with 123 thousand cases nationwide (BPJS
Employment, 2017). In the data of work accidents in
the DKI Jakarta area based on data from the Jakarta
Capital City BPJS from January to December 2017,
work accident cases in the capital city are still quite
high, namely 8,699 cases throughout 2017,
specifically construction workers increased from 507
cases in the year 2016 to 555 cases throughout 2017
or an increase of 10% (BPJS Employment, 2017).In
the process of forming and changing human

behavior, there are related factors, including internal
factors such as attitudes, beliefs, feelings, thoughts,
perceptions, and so on. While factors that come from
outside (external) such as training, communication,
regulation, supervision, and so on (Geller, 2001).
Several approaches have been taken to reduce or
prevent injuries accident. The importance of a
behavior-based approach to safety (behavior-based
safety) in an effort to improve work safety, both
reactive or proactive. In a reactive perspective,
safety efforts are tracked from risky or unsafe
behavior that results in harm. While in a proactive
perspective work safety efforts are traced from safe
behavior that results in a successful work accident
prevention (Geller, 2001).Based on the results of
observations made by researchers in the iron unit of
20 workers, it was found that there are workers who
have less worker's safety behavior, there are 12
workers (60%) of 20 workers who have less work
safety behavior, based on the results of the worker
questionnaire on the statement " pay attention to the
conditions of the work environment before starting
work 'and "wear gloves when working".

3.2 Discussion
3.2.1 Univariate Analysis
Description of Safety Behavior of Iron
Workers in the Thamrin Nine Phase II
Project PT. Total Bangun Persada Tbk in
2019
Based on the results of research that has been done
regarding safety behavior, the results obtained are
the opinions of respondents. Based on the results of
the study, the highest proportion of safety behavior
variables are workers with good safety behaviors as
many as 47 people (54.7%). This is in accordance
with research conducted by Halimah (2010) that the
largest number of respondents were respondents
who behaved safely namely 109 (83.9%).
Based on the results of a questionnaire stating
that the safety behaviors that they often do with
good safety behaviors are that my colleague and I
always use all the PPE that is needed at work who
have bad safety behaviors as many as 23 people
(60.5%), while the highest proportion of workers
who have good supervision are workers who have
good safety behavior as many as 32 people (66 7%).
Based on the chi-square test by showing a P-
value of = 0.022 (p-value <0.05), it can be
concluded that there is a relationship between
supervision of safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project PT. Total Bangun Persada Tbk in
2019. The prevalence ratio value in this analysis is
1.816 meaning that workers who have poor
supervision are 1,816 times more likely to behave in
bad safety than good supervision.
Based on chi-square by showing the value of P-
value that is equal to = 0.124 (p-value <0.05), it can
be concluded that there is no relationship between
regulations on safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project PT. Total Bangun Persada Tbk in
2019. The prevalence ratio value in this analysis is
1.632 meaning that workers who have poor
supervision are 1,632 times at risk of behaving
poorly compared to good regulations.
Description of the Attitudes of Iron Workers
in the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT.
Total Bangun Persada Tbk in 2019
Based on the results of research that has been done,
it is known that the proportion of respondents
(96.54%), my colleague and I use procedures that
are appropriate to my job (95.58%), my colleagues
and I always use full-body harness when working at
height (94.41%), I first check the work environment
before starting work (90.69%), if the protection
system is not installed, I report to the safety
supervisor (88.60%).
Based on field observations related to safety
behavior, many ironworkers behave well because
there is a toolbox meeting program, in the toolbox
meeting it is said that workers are always
remembered to work with good safety behaviors and
if there are workers who behave poorly, they will be
subject to reprimands and sanctions in the form of
fines or stop work.
Based on the results of the highest safety
behavior questionnaire that uses procedures that are
appropriate to the job, therefore researchers suggest
in the toolbox meeting program to provide additional
material on procedures for how to work with good
safety behavior according to the type of work with a
good attitude is higher than that of a bad attitude.
The highest proportion of respondents with a good
attitude is 47 respondents (54.7%).
The results of this study are in accordance with
research conducted by Surianti, where it is known
that the largest number of respondents are
respondents who have a good attitude, 34 (60.7%).
Based on the results of a questionnaire stating
that the attitude that they often do with a good
attitude is to work in accordance with procedures
because they follow existing regulations and policies
(88.37%), working by following procedures can
create conditions that are safe for yourself, others,
and the environment (83.43%), I do not use PPE
because my friend does not use PPE either
(81.39%), working while joking and chatting are
actions that can endanger ourselves or our friends
(75%), I use PPE so as not to be scolded or
reprimanded by supervisors (60.46%).
Based on the results of researchers' interviews
with the company, the majority of respondents who
have a good attitude is possible because of the
background of respondents who have experience
working in construction projects of PT. Total
Bangun Persada. This is because the subcontract is a
permanent partner of PT. Total Bangun Persada in
the next project. So that workers who continue to
work in the same conditions of the company form
the attitude of the workers more positively because
they already recognize how the company's
conditions in applying OHS.
Based on the results of the highest attitude
questionnaire that is working in accordance with
procedures because it follows the existing
regulations and policies, therefore the researcher
suggests in the safety induction program, PT. Total
ICOH 2019 - 1st International Conference on Health
332

Bangun Persada and the safety subcontract always
remind related to Standard Operating Procedures
(SOPs), regulations, and policies to workers.
Description of Iron Workers Knowledge in
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada Tbk in 2019
Based on the results of the research conducted, it is
known that the proportion of respondents with good
knowledge is higher than bad knowledge. The
highest proportion of respondents with good
knowledge is 57 respondents (66.3%). The results of
this study are in accordance with research conducted
by Fara (2017) which states that the proportion of
good knowledge is more than bad knowledge in the
amount of 30 respondents (81.1%).
Based on the results of the questionnaire, the
question with the highest proportion of correct
answers is the question of the definition of work
safety (93.02%), if working at an altitude of more
than 1.8 meters must use full-body harness
(93.02%), work safety can be applied by themselves
and other workers at work (91.86%), cutting iron
using a bar cutter can cause the risk of being
squeezed between 2 objects (90.69%), helmets are
personal protective equipment to protect the head
(88.37%).
Based on the observations of researchers in the
field the program that has been implemented by the
company is providing basic knowledge about K3 on
a regular basis to workers. The program is conducted
when the toolbox meeting is held every day and
safety talk is held once a week, with the material
provided is about basic OHS such as the objectives
of OHS, types of hazards and sources of danger in
each work unit and safe work procedures. Based on
the results of the questionnaire, the results of the
questions with the highest proportion are questions
about the definition of work safety, therefore
researchers suggest in the toolbox meeting program
to always provide K3 understanding, safe work, and
potential hazards.
Description of Iron Workers' Perceptions in
the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada Tbk in 2019
Based on the results of research that has been done,
it is known that the proportion of respondents with
good perceptions is higher compared to bad
perceptions. The proportion of respondents with
good perception is 48 respondents (55.8%). The
results of this study are consistent with research
conducted by Fara (2017), in which it is known that
the number of respondents was respondents who had
a good perception of 26 respondents (70.3%).
Based on the results of a questionnaire stating
that the perception that they often do with good
perception with the highest proportion of answers is
that we continue to work safely even though the
work schedule is busy (81.10%), we who work here
regard minor accidents as a natural thing from daily
work - our day (79.94%), I feel uncomfortable when
using PPE when working (79.94%), we who work
here learn from experience to prevent accidents
(79.36%), I feel uncomfortable when using PPE
when working (72.09%).
Based on the results of the perception
questionnaire there is the highest proportion that we
continue to work safely even though the work
schedule is busy, therefore researchers suggest in the
safety patrol program to always supervise and
conduct briefings to workers regarding Standard
Operating Procedures (SOPs) and potential hazards
in the field.
Based on the results of interviews conducted
with workers, many workers feel safe working such
as working in accordance with the Standard
Operating Procedure (SOP) and there are K3 signs
in the area of the work environment.

the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada Tbk in 2019
Based on the results of the research conducted, it is
known that the proportion of respondents with good
supervision is higher than that of poor supervision.
The proportion of respondents with good
supervision is 48 respondents (55.8%). The results
of this study are in accordance with research
conducted by Saputra (2017), it is known that the
number of respondents was respondents who were
well-supervised namely 42 respondents (63.6%).
Based on the results of a questionnaire stating
that supervision that they often carry out with good
supervision with the highest proportion of answers is
that supervisors give reprimands/sanctions to
workers who do not meet the standards (93.72%),
the supervisor always checks the completeness of
the personal protective equipment (PPE) before I
started my job (93.25%), the supervisor supervised
the work area (92.79%), I was always reminded to
work according to Work Procedure Standards
(89.53%), the supervisor at my workplace noticed
his employees who were less fit when working
(77.90%).

The program that has been implemented is a
supervision program based on PT. Total Bangun
Persada, where there are 2 supervisors namely PT.
Total Bangun Persada as the main contractor and
Sub-contractor safety officers (Subcon. PT. Total
and Subkon safety officers supervise during safety
patrol and safety inspection, they are required to
reprimand or dismiss workers if the work does not
comply with procedures and can pose a risk of
accidents work, always reminding workers about the
PPE and SOP in force, and the right to stop work
when doing safety patrol in the work area.
Based on the results of the highest supervision
questionnaire, the supervisor gives a reprimand/
sanction to workers who do not meet the standards,
therefore researchers suggest in the safety patrol
program to always reprimand workers who work not
in accordance with procedures. Based on field
observations, supervision is good enough. This
supervision is carried out at any time by the safety of
PT. Total and Subcon safety and if there are workers
who are wrong then the supervisor will reprimand
him directly.
Description of Iron Worker Regulations in
the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada Tbk in 2019
Based on the results of research that has been done,
it is known that the proportion of respondents with
good regulations is higher than bad regulations.
The proportion of respondents with good regulations
is 71 respondents (82.6%). The results of this study
are in accordance with research conducted by
Saputra (2017), it is known that the number of
respondents is good respondents who are about 35
respondents (53%).
Based on the results of a questionnaire stating
that the rules they often do with good regulations
with the highest proportion of answers are the rules
and policies of PT. Total Bangun Persada is in
writing and seen by me (98.25%), the company has a
safety talk program that is routinely given (98.25%),
I joined safety induction when I just started working
at PT. Total Bangun Persada (97.09%), in the
construction area signs, have been installed
regarding the importance of using PPE in work
(95.93%), PT. Total Bangun Persada has Work
Procedure Standards for each work activity
(94.76%).
Based on the results of the highest regulatory
questionnaire namely the rules and policies of PT.
Total Bangun Persada is written and seen by me, it
can be said that the workers are familiar with the
existing regulations. This is because, at the time
before work, they follow the safety induction which
contains regulations, policies, and standards of work
procedures.
Based on observations and interviews of
researchers with the company, the program that has
been implemented is the socialization of regulations
and policies to workers through safety induction
activities, safety induction is required for workers
who have just entered the project to find out all the
regulations and policies on the project, this is due to
the socialization regulations and policies are still not
carried out to workers, socialization is only carried
out during safety induction to new workers, but
henceforth there is no ongoing socialization program
as a refresher and a reminder to workers related to
applicable regulations.
This can have an impact on workers and
companies who later did not recognize the
applicable regulations. This is according to the
observations of researchers in the field with workers
who have been working for months and months but
when they have committed a violation, they excuse
by not knowing or forgetting about project
regulations.
3.2.2 Bivariate Analysis
Analysis of the Relationship between
Attitudes and Safety Behavior in the
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada in 2019
Based on the results of statistical tests conducted, it
was found that there was a relationship between
attitude and safety behavior in PT Total Bangun
Persada's Thamrin Nine Phase II Project (p-value =
0.036). In addition, based on the results of the
analysis it is known that the value of the Prevalence
Ratio (PR) is 1,732 meaning that workers who have
a bad attitude are 1,732 times more likely to behave
in bad safety behavior compared to a good attitude.
The results of this study are consistent with research
conducted by Surianti which states there is a
relationship between attitude and safety behavior.
Based on the results of researchers' interviews
with the company, the majority of respondents who
have a good attitude because the respondents have
experience working on construction projects of PT.
Total Bangun Persada. This is because the
subcontract is a permanent partner of PT. Total
Bangun Persada in the next project. So that workers
who continue to work at the same company form the
attitude of the workers more positively because they

already recognize how the company's conditions in
applying OHS. Safety Patrol in the project is also
less than optimal because they do safety patrol
conducted by the safety subcontract only once.
Analysis of Relationship between Knowledge
and Safety Behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project PT. Total Bangun Persada
in 2019
Based on the results of statistical tests conducted, it
was found that there was no relationship between
knowledge and safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project of PT. Total Bangun Persada 2019
(p-value = 1,000). In addition, based on the results
of the analysis it is known that the value of the
Prevalence Ratio (PR) is 0.983 meaning that
respondents who have bad knowledge have a 0.983
times greater chance of being a protective factor to
safety behavior compared to good knowledge.
Based on the results of stratification on the
knowledge variable with safety behavior stated as
not related, but after seeing the results of
stratification above this may be other factors,
namely attitudes, perceptions, and supervision that
affect safety behavior.
Analysis of the Relationship of Perception
with Safety Behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project PT. Total Bangun Persada
in 2019
Based on the results of statistical tests conducted, it
was found that there was a relationship between
perception and safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project of PT. Total Bangun Persada (p-
value = 0.006). In addition, based on the results of
the analysis it is known that the Prevalence Ratio
(PR) is 2,021, meaning that workers who have a bad
attitude have 2,021 times more risk of bad behavior
than a good perception. Based on the results of
interviews conducted with workers, many workers
feel safe working but in the process of work can
cause accidents, and Standard Operating Procedures
(SOPs) are not present in the work environment area
and the lack of OSH guidelines.
Analysis of the Relationship between
Supervision and Safety Behavior in the
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada in 2019
Based on the results of statistical tests conducted, it
was found that there was a relationship between
supervision and safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project of PT. Total Bangun Persada (p-
value = 0.022). In addition, based on the results of
the analysis it is known that the value of the
Prevalence Ratio (PR) is 1,816 meaning that
workers who have a bad attitude have a 1,816 times
the risk of having a bad safety behavior compared
with good perception.
Based on field observations, there are still
workers who, despite being reprimanded, do not
obey and behave safely if only supervised because
workers feel safe if they do not use Work Safety
Equipment (APK), workers are not comfortable
using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), then
researchers also found that several Subcon safety
officers were not strict in supervising their workers
because Subcon safety protected workers from
warnings by PT. Total. The company has a policy
related to workers who behave poorly in the form of
reprimand to workers, then if they repeat the same
mistakes, the company stops working and is given a
fine to the worker.
Analysis of Relationship between
Regulations and Safety Behavior in the
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada in 2019
Based on the results of statistical tests conducted, it
was found that there was no relationship between
regulations and safety behavior in the Thamrin Nine
Phase II Project of PT. Total Bangun Persada (p-
value = 0.124). In addition, based on the results of
the analysis it is known that the value of the
Prevalence Ratio (PR) is 1,632 meaning that
workers who have a bad attitude have the
opportunity to be 1,632 times more at risk for bad
safety behavior compared with good perception. The
results of this study are in accordance with research
conducted by Imami and Modjo (2014) which states
there is no relationship between regulations and
safety behavior.
Based on observations and interviews of
researchers with the company, the program that has
been implemented is the socialization of regulations
and policies to workers through safety induction
activities, safety induction is required for workers
who have just entered the project to find out all the
regulations and policies on the project, this is due to
the socialization regulations and policies are still not
carried out to workers, socialization is only carried
out during safety induction to new workers, but
henceforth there is no ongoing socialization program

as a refresher and a reminder to workers related to
applicable regulations.
Based on the results of stratification on the
regulatory variables with safety behaviors declared
unrelated, but after seeing the results of the
stratification above this may be other factors,
namely attitudes, perceptions and supervision that
make related.
4 CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of research that has been done,
the writer can conclude the following:
1. The distribution of respondents' safety
behavior with the highest proportion is good
safety behavior of 47 people (54.7%).
2. The distribution of respondents' attitudes with
the highest proportion is respondents with
good attitudes namely 47 respondents (54.7%).
3. The highest proportion of respondents'
knowledge distribution is respondents with
good knowledge, namely 57 respondents
(66.3%).
4. The distribution of respondents' perceptions
with the highest proportion is respondents with
good perceptions of 48 respondents (55.8%).
5. The distribution of respondents' supervision

Persada. The PR value of 1,732.
8. There is no relationship between the
knowledge and safety behavior of ironworkers
in the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada. The PR value of 0.983.
9. There is a relationship between the perception
and safety behavior of ironworkers in the
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada. The PR value of 2,021.
10. There is a relationship between supervision
and safety behavior of ironworkers in the
Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada. The PR value of 1,816.
11. There is no relationship between the
regulations and safety behavior of ironworkers
in the Thamrin Nine Phase II Project PT. Total
Bangun Persada. The PR value of 1,632.
5 SUGGESTION
1. Conduct monitoring of behavior to workers
carried out by Subkon Safety routinely at least
2 times a day, so that workers who still have
negative attitudes can change their attitudes to
be positive.
2. Sticking Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)
in the work area and multiplying K3 signs.
Thus, workers will emerge the perception that
the work they do is in accordance with
procedures and knows the potential hazards
and risks in the work area.
3. Increasing the role of supervisors of safety
subcontractors by reprimanding workers,
inspecting workers in accordance with
Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and
conducting a comprehensive evaluation on the
performance of Subcon safety officers to
provide an assessment of the performance of
each Subcon safety.
