Abstract

Occupational safety and health (K3) is an important aspect in industrial relations that aims to protect workers from the risk of accidents and occupational diseases. The problem formulation is (1) How is the implementation of K3 legal protection for PT. Fifafel drivers in Solok City? (2) What are the obstacles in its implementation? and (3) What efforts are made to overcome these obstacles? The type of research used is sociological juridical; the data sources used are primary and secondary data; data collection techniques with semi-structured interviews and document studies; and analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that (1) the implementation of K3 legal protection for PT. Fifafel drivers in Solok City is still not optimal. (2) The obstacles faced include a lack of PPE, K3 training is only given to new drivers, vehicle inspections that have not been carried out regularly, work hour arrangements that do not comply with the provisions of the law, and not all drivers are registered in the BPJS Employment program. (3) The efforts that have been made by the company to improve include internal supervision, accelerating driver registration with BPJS Employment, providing K3 facilities such as PPE, and increasing the scope of K3 training so that it not only targets new drivers but also existing drivers through regular updates, providing regular education and outreach. Government support and law enforcement are also needed for K3 protection.
