Abstract:
Occupational safety on board ships is a crucial aspect in supporting operational continuity
and preventing workplace accidents. However, in practice, various accidents still occur
due to weak supervision, non-compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOP),
and work fatigue conditions. This study aims to analyze the supervision of deck ratings
and identify the factors causing occupational accidents on board. This research employs
a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques including observation,
interviews, and documentation during sea practice. Data analysis was conducted using
the fishbone diagram method to identify root causes of problems based on human,
method, material, management, and environmental factors. The results show that
occupational accidents are influenced by low safety awareness among crew members,
non-compliance with Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), weak supervision, unsafe
working conditions, and fatigue due to long working hours. The conclusion of this study
indicates that improving occupational safety can be achieved through optimizing
supervision, enforcing Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) discipline, enhancing work
communication, and managing crew fatigue.
