PENGARUH PEMAHAMAN AWAK KAPAL MT.AKRA 105 TERHADAP EFEKTIVITAS PENGELOLAAN LIMBAH SAMPAH PADA KAPAL YANG DIAGENI OLEH PT RADIAN JAYA SAMUDERA

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the crew's level of understanding regarding waste segregation procedures, measure the effectiveness of waste management aboard MT Akra 105, and identify factors causing low discipline in maintaining the Garbage Record Book.The quantitative method was employed, with data gathered through questionnaires, observations, documentation, and literature review. Data were analyzed using validity, reliability, correlation, determination, simple linear regression, and t-tests.The results indicated that the crew's understanding of MARPOL Annex V regulations has a positive and significant impact on the effectiveness of waste management (regression coefficient 0.920). However, understanding varies due to differences in tenure and educational background. Additionally, external factors such as the availability of disposal facilities and master's supervision also influence waste management effectiveness .In conclusion, enhancing crew understanding is crucial to maximizing waste management effectiveness. It is recommended that the company conduct pre-joining briefings, regular onboard training, and provide adequate waste management facilities.
