Abstract
Occupational health is an important aspect in maintaining the welfare of workers, particularly in the aviation sector which has a high level of occupational risk. One of the work units with such risk characteristics is the Apron Movement Control (AMC) personnel at Yogyakarta International Airport, who in carrying out their duties are exposed to noise, heat stress, and operational workload. Therefore, the implementation of optimal occupational health is necessary to support the safety and performance of personnel. This study aims to determine the occupational health and the condition of occupational health of AMC personnel.
This study employed a descriptive qualitative method. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation involving 32 active AMC personnel. Data analysis techniques included data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was tested using source and technique triangulation.
The results showed that efforts to improve occupational health have been well implemented through the provision of personal protective equipment (PPE), a clean and comfortable working environment, routine workplace cleaning, and regular medical check-ups conducted once a year. Factors influencing occupational health include workplace cleanliness, availability of drinking water, workspace organization, ventilation, work facilities, as well as lighting and noise levels which are still within acceptable limits.
