PENGARUH KOORDINASI KERJA DAN KETERAMPILAN KERJA KRU KAPAL TERHADAP KEBERHASILAN CARGO HOLD CLEANING DARI MUATAN KOTOR (IRON ORE) KE MUATAN BERSIH (WHEAT) PADA KAPAL MV. PACIFIC BLESSING

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of work coordination and crew skills on the success of cargo hold cleaning during the transition from dirty cargo (iron ore) to clean cargo (wheat) on board MV. Pacific Blessing. The problems addressed include suboptimal work coordination, insufficient crew skills, and the failure to consistently achieve wheat-ready cargo hold standards. The research population consists of ship crews involved in cargo hold cleaning activities, with samples determined based on research requirements. A quantitative approach was employed through questionnaire distribution. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, instrument testing, multiple linear regression, correlation, coefficient of determination, and hypothesis testing. The results indicate a positive and significant influence of work coordination and crew skills on the success of cargo hold cleaning. This implies that better coordination and higher crew competency contribute to improved cleaning performance and compliance with required standards. It is recommended that ship management enhance effective communication, ensure clear task allocation, and provide regular technical training to improve crew competency and achieve optimal cargo hold cleanliness standards.
