Penggunaan bahan baku yang mengandung silika bebas dan terikat pada berbagai industri dapat menimbulkan dcbu silika di udara lingkungan kerja yang dapat terhirup masuk ke dalam saluran respirasi. NIOSH menyatakan bahwa. pekexja yang terpajan debu silika dalam waktu 5 tahun mempunyai risiko tinggi menderita silikosis sebesar 0,2 %, 6 - 9 tahun sebesar 1,5 %, lebih dari 10 mhun sebesar 16,6 %, 11 - 16 tahun sebesar 20 % dan lebih dari 16 tahun sebesar 42 % dan dapat mengakibatkan gangguan fungsi paru pekerjanya.Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian cross sectional dan menggunakan pendekatan nilai Odds Ratio yang mempelajari hubmmgan amara faktor risiko dengan gangguan kesehatan pckcrja yang dilaksanakan di bagian produksi sebuah pabrik saniter di Jawa Barat tahun 2001 dengan ng uan diketahuinya gambaran umum iimgsi pam pekcrja pabrik saniter dan mencari faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhinya.Hasil penelitian ini mcnunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi debu silika bebas dan terikat di indusui saniter melebihi nilai ambang batas yang telah ditentukan, sedangkan umur tidak mempunyai hubungan yang bermakna dengan gambaran fungsi paru pekenja dan faktor-faktor yang paling mempengaruhi gambaran fmmgsi paru pekelja pabdk saniter X adalah konsentrasi debu silika bebas dan tedkat rata-rata, masa kexja, kebiasaan merokok dan kebiasaan memakai alat pelindung dir Untuk mendukung program kesehatan dan kcselamatan kelja bagi pekerja di lingkungan industd yang memakai bahan dasar silika bebas dan terikat disarankan untuk dilakukan pengawasan yang ketat terhadap alat pengendali dcbu dan memonitor Nilai Ambang Batas ( NAB ) yang tclah ditentukan oleh pemerintah Republik Indonesia.

Employees as human resources play an important role in pacify and expand a production process. They carry out a necessary working activity that in some cases are exposed by the risk of dangerous situation. Occupation accident in an industry, especially in a manufacturing company constitute as undesired evidence. Labor protection principle in occupational accident not only evaluate a potential risk of danger but also find out the cause of emergence. This thesis emphasizes on the cause factors of accident that might suddenly happen in preceding to the working activity. This study would be explored in the production unit of Bridgestone Tire Indonesia. It uses the Fault Tree Analysis Method with a qualitative research. The result of this research shows that the occupation accident occurring in that company has various types following Heinrich theories that the cause of accident are due to fail of carefulness during working activities and unsafe working conditions. To pay attention on the statistics of accident, based on the yearly report, the evidence has increased about 72,7% from 1999 to 2001, at the time patrol safety clothes, the figure fluctuate. That research only focus on flow think or flow chart for unsafe acts and unsafe conditions with secundair data result in fact with field in Fault tree analysis. From the data field result unsafe condition caused of operation machine, materiil conditions and environment condition. Accupation accident from operation machine caused of operation didn't follow on procedures, abnorm condition and didn't connect. Abnorm conditions may be caused of requirement function unprotect, trouble machine or lable in machine can't understand becaused Kanji letters. On trouble may be caused of didn't function of emergency stop, rope emergency can't caught, trouble operator to find manual stop or less of requirement gived. Environment conditions may be floor not smooth, unbalance cleaning service, not keep on Healhty or narrow office in work, in unsafe acts caused of operator working unfollowed with standard and machine abnorm condition. Operator working unfollowed with standard caused of neglected on working, work without safety clothes, work in machine oparation, work withough requirement protect, and hurry working, work unsafe body position, work trouble, unsafe requirement. Work without safety clothe s caused of safety clothes broken, unwilling safety clothes, safety clothes unrelative give, working with safety clothes unpleasant or safety clothes not enough stock. In hurry working caused of in hurry finish or in hurry order target. Trouble working caused of don't know risk or low educated. Hopefully this thesis could contribute to decrease the figure of accident in the manufacturing companies.Bibliography : 35 ( 1980-2000)
