Pertanian merupakan salah satu sektor dengan tenaga kerja terbanyak yang tidak terlepas dari bahaya dan risiko. Petani sebagai tenaga kerja didalamnya membutuhkan pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja (K3) yang baik guna mencegah potensi risiko. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan serta menganalisis pengetahuan, sikap, praktik K3, serta karakteristik demografi pada petani padi di Desa Sukamulya tahun 2026. Karakteristik demografi pada penelitian ini antara lain jenis kelamin, usia, pendidikan terakhir, pengalaman di pekerjaan lain, pengalaman bertani, status petani, dan menerima informasi K3. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain cross sectional dengan metode kuantitatif. Sampel diambil menggunakan teknik probability sampling. Sebanyak 80 petani padi dari kelompok-kelompok tani di Desa Sukamulya, Kecamatan Rancaekek, Kabupaten Bandung, Jawa Barat berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik wawancara terpimpin menggunakan kuesioner lalu dianalisis menggunakan uji Chi-Square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 51,2% petani padi memiliki pengetahuan K3 yang baik, 61,3% petani padi memiliki sikap K3 yang positif, dan 57,5% petani padi memiliki praktik K3 yang baik. Terdapat hubungan signifikan antara karakteristik demografi dan pengetahuan K3, yaitu jenis kelamin (p=0,008; OR=0,198) dan status petani (p=0,038; OR=4,4). Terdapat hubungan signifikan antara karakteristik demografi dan sikap K3, yaitu usia (p=0,039; OR=0,357). Sementara itu, tidak terdapat hubungan signifikan antara karakteristik demografi dan praktik K3. Penyuluhan dan pelatihan K3, pendampingan implementasi K3, pengadaan alat pelindung diri, hingga pengembangan regulasi K3 pada sektor pertanian disarankan dalam peningkatan pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik K3 pada petani padi di Desa Sukamulya.

Agriculture is one of the sectors with the largest workforce, which is inherently linked to hazards and risks. Farmers, as the workers involved, need good knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) to prevent potential risks. This study aims to describe and analyze the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH), as well as the demographic characteristics of rice farmers in Sukamulya Village in 2026. The demographic characteristics examined in this study include gender, age, highest level of education, experience in other jobs, farming experience, farmer status, and access to OSH information. This study used a cross sectional design with quantitative methods. Samples were selected using a probability sampling technique. A total of 80 rice farmers from existing farmer groups in Sukamulya Village, Rancaekek Subdistrict, Bandung Regency, West Java, participated in this study. Data were collected through structured interviews using a questionnaire and subsequently analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that 51.2% of rice farmers had good OSH knowledge, 61.3% had positive OSH attitudes, and 57.5% practiced good OSH. There was a significant association between demographic characteristics and OSH knowledge, specifically gender (p=0.008; OR=0.198) and farmer status (p=0.038; OR 4.4). There was a significant association between demographic characteristics and OSH attitudes, specifically age (p=0.039; OR=0.357). Meanwhile, there was no significant association between demographic characteristics and OSH practices. OSH education and training, guidance on OSH implementation, the provision of personal protective equipment, and the development of OSH regulations in the agricultural sector are recommended to improve the knowledge, attitudes, and OSH practices of rice farmers in Sukamulya Village.

Sektor pertanian merupakan salah satu pekerjaan paling berbahaya dengan kecelakaan kerja, paparan bahan kimia, dan angka kematian yang tinggi. Petani padi terpapar oleh bahaya fisik, kimia, biologi, ergonomi, dan bahaya keselamatan. Perilaku kesehatan merupakan gabungan dari pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik. Perilaku K3 sangat terkait dengan upaya pemeliharaan dan peningkatan kondisi keselamatan dan kesehatan pekerja. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui faktor karakteristik demografi yang berhubungan dengan pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik K3 pada petani padi di Desa Linggar. Sampel diambil dari setiap kelompok tani padi. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara terstruktur. Analisis yang digunakan adalah statistik deskriptif, uji Chi- Square, dan uji Fisher Exact. Hasil uji Chi-Square menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang bermakna secara statistik antara pengetahuan dengan usia (p=0,001; OR=0,183; 95% CI:0,066-0,512) dan tingkat pendapatan dengan pengetahuan (p=0,028; OR=3,111; 95% CI:1,110-8,716). Petani berusia ≥60 tahun dan petani dengan pendapatan rendah kemungkinan memiliki tingkat pengetahuan kurang baik yang lebih besar. Tingkat pendapatan berhubungan dengan sikap (p = 0,03; OR=0,271; 95% CI:0,080-0,917). Petani dengan tingkat pendapatan tinggi kemungkinan memiliki sikap negatif terhadap K3 yang lebih besar. Tingkat pendidikan berhubungan dengan praktik (p=0,041; OR=3,885; 95% CI:0,995-15,17). Petani dengan tingkat pendidikan dasar kemungkinan memiliki praktik kurang baik yang lebih tinggi. Dinas Pertanian Kabupaten Bandung dapat bekerja sama dengan instansi lain untuk menyelenggarakan promosi K3 pada petani usia ≥60 tahun, petani dengan pendapatan rendah maupun tinggi, dan petani dengan tingkat pendidikan dasar.

Agriculture is one of the most dangerous industries, with high rates of occupational accidents, chemical exposure, and fatality rates. Rice farmers are exposed to various physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, and safety hazards. Health behavior is a combination of knowledge, attitude, and practice. Occupational safety and health (OSH) behavior plays a central role in maintaining and promoting workers' safety and health conditions. This study examined which demographic characteristics were associated with OSH knowledge, attitude, and practice among rice farmers in Linggar Village. Samples were drawn from each farmer group in the village, with data collected through structured interviews and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Chi-Square test, and Fisher's Exact test. The analysis revealed a significant association between age and knowledge (p=0.001; OR=0.183; 95% CI: 0.066–0.512), as well as between income and knowledge (p=0.028; OR=3.111; 95% CI: 1.110–8.716). Farmers aged 60 and above, along with those in lower-income brackets, were more likely to have poor OSH knowledge. Income was also linked to attitude (p=0.03; OR=0.271; 95% CI: 0.080–0.917), with higher-income farmers more likely to hold negative attitudes toward OSH. Education level was associated with practice (p=0.041; OR=3.885; 95% CI: 0.995–15.17), with less-educated farmers more likely to engage in poor OSH practices. These findings suggest Dinas Pertanian Kabupaten Bandung, in collaboration with other authorities could develop OSH promotion programs, particularly for farmers aged 60 and above, those at either end of the income spectrum, and those with only basic education.

Sektor pertanian merupakan salah satu sektor dengan risiko keselamatan dan kesehatan kerja (K3) tertinggi di dunia, namun implementasi K3 di kalangan petani di Indonesia masih belum optimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan gambaran pengetahuan, sikap, dan praktik pencegahan kecelakaan kerja pada petani aktif di Desa X, Kecamatan Rancaekek, Kabupaten Bandung. Penelitian menggunakan desain deskriptif dengan pendekatan kuantitatif dan melibatkan seluruh 54 petani aktif anggota kelompok tani sebagai responden melalui metode total sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur yang terdiri atas instrumen pengetahuan (11 item, skala dikotomi), sikap (7 item, skala Likert 4 poin), dan praktik (12 item, skala frekuensi 4 poin) mengenai pencegahan kecelakaan kerja. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat menggunakan distribusi frekuensi dan statistik deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden berjenis kelamin laki-laki (83,3%) dengan rata-rata usia 52,5 tahun dan rata-rata masa kerja 21,0 tahun. Sebanyak 57,4% responden belum pernah memperoleh informasi mengenai pencegahan kecelakaan kerja dan 33,3% pernah mengalami kecelakaan kerja. Dari sisi pengetahuan, sebagian besar responden (59,3%) tergolong memiliki pengetahuan yang baik tentang pencegahan kecelakaan kerja (skor ≥8 dari 11) dengan mean 7,52 (SD ± 2,55), meskipun pengetahuan terendah ditemukan pada aspek keselamatan kelistrikan (46,3%) dan membaca petunjuk penggunaan mesin (55,6%). Dari sisi sikap, sebanyak 57,4% responden memiliki sikap positif terhadap pencegahan kecelakaan kerja (mean 21,28; SD ± 3,84) berdasarkan cut-off mean setelah uji normalitas Shapiro-Wilk. Dari sisi praktik, hanya 37,0% responden yang tergolong memiliki praktik pencegahan kecelakaan kerja yang baik (skor ≥36 dari 48) dengan mean 30,39 (SD ± 8,05). Praktik terendah ditemukan pada pencatatan penggunaan pestisida (68,5% tidak pernah) dan perlindungan kelistrikan mesin (50,0% tidak pernah). Terdapat kesenjangan antara pengetahuan dan sikap yang relatif lebih baik dibandingkan dengan praktik pencegahan kecelakaan kerja yang masih rendah. Temuan ini mengindikasikan perlunya intervensi yang tidak hanya berfokus pada peningkatan pengetahuan, tetapi juga pada penguatan faktor pendukung (enabling factors) dan peningkatan akses terhadap alat pelindung diri guna mendukung penerapan pencegahan kecelakaan kerja di kalangan petani.

The agricultural sector is one of the industries with the highest occupational safety and health (OSH) risks worldwide. However, the implementation of occupational safety and health (OSH) among farmers in Indonesia remains suboptimal. This study aimed to describe the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding occupational accident prevention among active rice farmers in Village X, Rancaekek District, Bandung Regency. A descriptive study with a quantitative approach was conducted involving all 54 active members of farmer groups using a total sampling method. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire consisting of a knowledge instrument (11 dichotomous items), an attitude instrument (7 items on a 4-point Likert scale), and a practice instrument (12 items on a 4-point frequency scale) related to occupational accident prevention. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis with frequency distributions and descriptive statistics. The results showed that most respondents were male (83.3%), with a mean age of 52.5 years and an average working experience of 21.0 years. A total of 57.4% of respondents had never received information regarding occupational accident prevention, while 33.3% had experienced a work-related accident. Regarding knowledge, most respondents (59.3%) demonstrated good knowledge of occupational accident prevention (score ≥8 out of 11), with a mean score of 7.52 (SD ± 2.55). The lowest levels of knowledge were found in electrical safety (46.3%) and reading machine operating instructions (55.6%). Regarding attitudes, 57.4% of respondents demonstrated positive attitudes toward occupational accident prevention (mean = 21.28, SD ± 3.84), based on the mean cut-off after the Shapiro-Wilk normality test. Regarding practices, only 37.0% of respondents demonstrated good occupational accident prevention practices (score ≥36 out of 48), with a mean score of 30.39 (SD ± 8.05). The poorest practices were related to recording pesticide use (68.5% never performed) and protecting machinery electrical systems (50.0% never performed). A noticeable gap was observed between respondents' relatively good knowledge and attitudes and their poor occupational accident prevention practices. These findings indicate the need for interventions that not only improve knowledge but also strengthen enabling factors and increase access to personal protective equipment to support the implementation of occupational accident prevention among farmers.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between nutritional status, nutrient intake, and work fatigue among rice farmers in the informal sector in Batujaya Village, Karawang Regency. Farmers in this sector engage in high-intensity physical labor but often face limitations in nutrient intake. This research employed a cross-sectional design involving 45 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) for nutrient intake, Body Mass Index (BMI) measurements for nutritional status, and the Industrial Fatigue Research Committee (IFRC) questionnaire for work fatigue. Inferensial analysis using the Chi-Square test showed that nutrient intake (p = 0.003), nutritional status (p = 0.001), years of service (p = 0.012), reported illness (p = 0.000), and workload (p = 0.000) had a statistically significant relationship with the level of work fatigue. In contrast, age and gender were not significantly associated. Farmers with poor nutritional intake and status tended to experience higher levels of work fatigue. These findings underscore the importance of adequate nutritional fulfillment and workload management to prevent work fatigue and enhance productivity. Interventions are needed in the form of nutrition education, improved access to nutritious food, and the strengthening of community-based occupational health programs in the informal agricultural sector.
