Abstract

Putri, Livia Kusuma Astuti Dirga. 2025. “Analysis of the Influence of Ship Fire Handling Training on Crew and Passenger Safety” This study aims to analyze the effect of fire handling training on the safety of crew members and passengers aboard KM. Bukit Raya. The issues addressed include the suboptimal implementation of training, its non-compliance with STCW 2010 Code AVIII/2 on weekly drills, and inadequate maintenance and communication regarding fire safety equipment. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The population includes 133 crew members and passengers, with a sample of 100 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted using a closedended Likert scale questionnaire. Data were analyzed through validity and reliability tests, simple linear regression, t-test, Spearman correlation, and determination test. The results indicate that fire handling training has a significant impact on the safety of crew and passengers. The correlation coefficient reflects a strong relationship, while the R² value of 0.607 indicates that training contributes 60.7% to overall safety improvement. In conclusion, structured and standardized training significantly improves crew preparedness and reduces passenger risk. The author recommends PT PELNI to enhance training quality, upgrade fire alert systems, and conduct regular evaluations of emergency readiness onboard.
