THE INFLUENCE OF SURVEILLANCE USING CLOSED CIRCUIT TELEVISION (CCTV) ON AIRSIDE SAFETY AT BLU UPBU CLASS I UTAMA JUWATA TARAKAN

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of surveillance using Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) on the safety
of the airside area at Juwata Tarakan Airport. The focus of the research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the CCTV
surveillance system in supporting safety operations, particularly in the apron area. This study was conducted due to
existing limitations in the coverage and quality of CCTV, which potentially reduce the optimization of surveillance. The
research method used is descriptive quantitative, with data collected through observation and questionnaires. The
respondents consisted of 88 personnel from Apron Movement Control (AMC) and Aviation Security (AVSEC), selected
using a saturated sampling technique. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, simple linear regression,
and t-test.The results showed that CCTV had a significant influence on the safety of the airside area, with a coefficient
of determination (R²) of 89.9%. The t-test value (19.080 > 1.662) and a significance level of 0.000 (< 0.05) confirm a
positive relationship between the two variables. The conclusion of this study is that CCTV surveillance has a significant
impact on improving airside security. However, its effectiveness is still hindered by limitations in the number of cameras,
areas not yet covered, and technical disruptions. Therefore, it is recommended to increase the number of CCTV units,
improve device quality, and conduct periodic evaluations to maximize the surveillance function. These findings can
serve as a reference for airport management in enhancing the security system.
