Abstract

Container shipping is one of the important areas in the global logistics industry, where containerisation is used to transport goods. It plays an important role in facilitating international trade, providing reliable and efficient shipping routes for a wide range of goods, from consumer products to industrial raw materials. With the continuous development of technology and infrastructure, container shipping must continue to improve in terms of speed, capacity and efficiency. In loading and unloading activities, employees play a big role. Employees are valuable assets for the company, and maintaining their health and safety conditions is key to maintaining productivity and operational efficiency. This study aims to identify hazards and potential risks in loading and unloading operations at container terminal service company by developing a risk model to create comprehensive frameworks that integrate various aspects of risks management, includes identifying, assessing, mitigating, monitoring risks, and implement risk controls to minimise hazard identified in order to improve the occupational safety and health of workers. HIRARC method is an approach that can be used to identify potential hazards. Implementation of good OHS practices will protect employees from the risk of occupational injury, also reduces costs associated with work accidents. The risk of injury can be minimised by identifying potential hazards and adopting appropriate preventive measures, thus creating a safer and healthier working environment for all workers. By implementing OHS, risk of accident can be avoided, increase productivity, also improving overall safety and operational standards in the industry.
