THE EFFECT OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY IMPLEMENTATION ON PRACTICAL SAFETY AND LEARNING COMFORT IN THE LIGHT VEHICLE ENGINEERING
Downloads
This study explores how Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) practices shape the safety and learning comfort of Grade XII Light Vehicle Engineering students at SMK Pancasila 1 Kutoarjo. Using an ex-post facto design, data were gathered from 22 students through a structured questionnaire. The descriptive results show that most students feel highly comfortable during practical activities, supported by fewer minor accidents and stronger awareness of OHS procedures. However, the inferential analysis does not confirm a significant linear relationship between OHS implementation and students’ comfort or safety (Fcount = 1.760 < Ftable = 1.846; ? = 0.05). Thus, the study concludes that while students perceive the workshop environment as safe and supportive, this perception is not statistically proven to be influenced by OHS implementation. The value of this research lies in offering descriptive insights into how safety practices can nurture students’ sense of comfort and awareness in vocational automotive learning settings.
