Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) program in reducing the number of workplace accidents in the manufacturing industry through a qualitative approach using a literature study method. The study was conducted on various scientific sources, including international journals, official agency reports, and the results of the latest research for the period 2015–2025. The synthesis results indicate that the effectiveness of the OHS program is greatly influenced by the integration of policies, management commitment, and the safety culture established in the workplace. Systematically implemented OHS programs have been proven to be able to reduce the workplace accident rate by up to 40–50 percent through the implementation of continuous training, safety audits, and the use of digital-based hazard detection technology. However, obstacles still arise due to limited resources, low worker compliance, and weak internal supervision. Strategies for strengthening safety culture through participatory leadership, worker involvement, and a reward system for safe behavior are identified as key to the sustainability of OHS implementation. The study's conclusion confirms that the development of a strong safety culture and consistent regulatory support are the main foundations in creating a safe, productive, and highly competitive manufacturing work environment in the era of modern industrialization.
