THE INFLUENCE OF GROUND HANDLING OFFICER PERFORMANCE ON K3 (OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY) AT MUTIARA SIS AL-JUFRI HAMMER AIRPORT

Abstract

This study focuses on Mutiara Sis Al-Jufri Palu Airport in Central Sulawesi. Its objective is to assess how Ground Handling officers' performance impacts Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) at the airport, thereby guaranteeing the efficacy of flight operations. Quantitative research methodology is the approach that is employed. Data were gathered using a research design that included questionnaires and observation. At Mutiara Sis Al-Jufri Airport, 43 ground handling officers made up the research population, and 43 responses made up the sample. The findings demonstrated that the degree of safety, security, and health at the airport was significantly impacted by the performance of ground handling officers. Given that variable X has a positive regression coefficient value of 0.840, both a rise and a fall in ground handling officers' performance will result in a 0.840 increase in K3 (Occupational Health and Safety). The t-count value of 18.329 > t-table 1.681 and the significance value of 0.000 <0.05 are displayed in the t-test findings. We conclude that improving ground handling officers' comprehension and awareness of safety and security could enhance OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) at Mutiara Sis Al-Jufri Airport Palu.
