[ABSTRAK
Bahaya radiasi Ultraviolet-B di tempat kerja yang dihasilkan oleh prosespengelasan merupakan salah satu faktor yang dapat menyebabkan terjadinyagangguan kesehatan dan penyakit akibat kerja pada pekerja PT. Jaya AsiaticShipayrd Indonesia ? Batam, yang mana dalam proses produksinya melakukanproses pengelasan dalam penyambungan logam mempunyai potensi untukterjadinya kelelahan mata pekerja las. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihatapakah terjadi peningkatan keluhan kelelahan mata sebagai akibat pajanan radiasiUltraviolet-B pada pekerja las di workshop Hull perusahaan. Faktor yangberhubungan dengan keluhan kelelahan mata yang diteliti adalah tingkat radiasiUltraviolet-B, serta beberapa faktor yang berkaitan dengan individu yaitu umur,lama paparan dan pemakaian Alat Pelindung Diri.Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan disain deskriptif analitik denganpendekatan cross sectional untuk menemukan fakta dengan interpretasi yang tepatdan akurat melukiskan gejala-gejala kelelahan mata pada kelompok atau individupekerja las. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan mengukur tingkat radiasiUltraviolet-B memapar pekerja las, serta mendapatkan data umur, lama paparan,dan pemakaian Alat Pelindung Diri melalui kuesioner.Dari hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa 90% pekerja las di workshop Hullmengalami keluhan kelelahan mata. Setelah dilakukan analisis data, ternyatakeseluruhan pekerja las terpapar dengan tingkat radiasi yang dihasilkan olehproses pengelasan yang melebihi nilai ambang batas. Analisis hubungan antara faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi keluhan kelelahan mata pekerja ternyata tidakterlihat adanya hubungan.Dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa dari hasil pengukuran radiasiUltraviolet-B di workshop Hull melebihi nilai ambang batas yang diperbolehkanberdasarkan PERMENAKERTRANS No. PER.13/MEN/X/2012. Bagi penelitilain yang ingin melihat faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi keluhan kelelahan matapekerja las, perlu mempertimbangkan adanya populasi kontrol.
ABSTRACT
Ultraviolet-B radiation hazards in the workplace is a factor that caused ofhealth effect and occupational disease on the workers of PT. Jaya AsiaticShipayrd Indonesia - Batam, where in the process of their production conductingwelding to connect metal, has the potential for eye fatigue of the welders. Thisstudy aims to determine whether there is an increase in eye fatigue complaints asa result of UV-B radiation exposure to welder in Hull Workshop. Factorassociated with complaints of eye fatigue studied is Ultraviolet-B radiation levels,as well as a number of factors relating to the individual, namely age, duration ofexposure, and usage of Personal Protective Equipment.The research was done by analytical descriptive design with crosssectional approach to find the facts to the proper interpretation and accuratelydescribe the symptoms of eye fatigue on the individual or group of welder. Datacollection was performed by measuring the levels of UV-B radiation exposedwelders, as well as getting the data on age, duration of exposure and the use ofPersonal Protective Equipment through questionnaires.The survey results revealed that 90% of workers in the Hull weldingworkshop complaint of eye fatigue. After analyzing the data, it turns out that thewhole welders were exposed to radiation levels generated by the welding processthat exceeds a threshold limit value. Analysis of the relationship between thefactors that affect workers' complaints eyes fatigue was not visible. From this study it can be concluded that the measurement of UV-B radiation in Hull workshop exceeds the threshold limit value allowed by PERMENAKERTRANS No. PER.13/MEN/X/2012. For other researchers who want to look at the factors that affect welders complaints eye fatigue, needs to consider the control population.;Ultraviolet-B radiation hazards in the workplace is a factor that caused ofhealth effect and occupational disease on the workers of PT.
