Penggunaan mesin dalam kegiatan produksi dapat menimbulkan masalah kebisingan yang mempunyai pengaruh luas pada gangguan indera pendengaran, gangguan komunikasi, gangguan tidur, gangguan pelaksanaan tugas, perasaan tidak senang, dan gangguan faal tubuh. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian analitik dengan desain studi cross sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah pekerja shift 2 unit spinning 1 yang berjumlah 75 pekerja. Sampel ditentukan dengan proportional sampling didapat jumlah 44 sampel. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara pengisian kuesioner, pengukuran intensitas kebisingan, dan pengukuran audiometri. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat menggunakan uji Fisher Exact (α=0,005). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan ada hubungan antara usia  (p =0,001 telinga kanan dan  p=0,003 telinga kiri), penempatan kerja (p=0,036 pada kedua telinga), intensitas kebisingan (p=0,036 pada kedua telinga), lama paparan (p=0,001 pada kedua telinga) dengan gangguan pendengaran. Dan tidak ada hubungan antara penggunaan APT dengan gangguan pendengaran (p=0,282 pada telinga kanan dan   p=0,722 pada telinga kiri). Saran yang peneliti rekomendasikan bagi pekerja adalah mentaati kebijakan yang berhubungan dengan pengendalian kebisingan, saling mengingatkan untuk menggunakan APT selama bekerja. Bagi perusahaan diharapkan dapat memasang noise barrier dan membuat kebijakan yang berhubungan dengan pengendalian kebisingan.   Using  machines in production activities can cause noise problems that have a large effect on the sense of hearing disorders, communication disorders, sleep disorders, disorders of task execution, displeasure, and disorders of the body physiology. This research was an analytical study with cross sectional design. Population in this study were the second shift workers spinning unit 1, amounting 75 workers. Sample was determined by proportional sampling obtained number 44 samples. Data were collected by means of questionnaires, noise intensity measurements, and audiometric measurements. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate Fisher Exact test (α = 0.005). Results of this study showed relationship between age (p=0.001 right ear and p=0.003 left ear), work placement (p =0.036 in both ears), noise intensity (p=0.036 in both ears), duration of exposure (p = 0.001 on both ears) with hearing loss. And there is no relationship between using APT with hearing loss (p=0.282 in the right ear and p=0.722 in the left ear). Suggestions researchers recommend for workers are to obey the policy relating to the control of noise, remind each other to use APT for work.

ABSTRACTSafe behaviour in company could prevent Noise Induce Hearing Loss. Safe behaviour that could prevent hearing loss is  the compliance of wearing ear protector. It could be shaped by using the activator-behaviour-consequence (ABC) method that can be influenced by forming behaviour factors (knowledge, training, and supervision and positive reinforcement). The aim of this research was to analyze the association between forming behaviour factors with the compliance of wearing ear protector. This was an observational analytic study with cross sectional approach with 18 workers in maintenance section of PLTD Ampenan as sample. Data were collected through questionnaire, interview, and observation. Data were analyzed used pearson chi-square and fisher exact test to obtain the association between variables. The results showed that most of the workers (72.2%) in maintenance section of PLTD Ampenan had the compliance of wearing ear protector. There were significant correlation between knowledge, training, supervision, and positive reinforcement with the compliance of wearing ear protector. Supervision has a very strong correlation (coefficent 1,000). The more workers feel himself under supervision, the better their behaviour will be. It is recommended that the company can perform all forming behaviour factors especially improve the supervision method in order to make all workers have the compliance of wearing ear protector.Keywords: forming behaviour factor, safe behaviour, ABC method
