PENGARUH TINGKAT KESADARAN SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SMS) PETUGAS GROUND HANDLING BERDASARKAN DATA PELATIHAN DI BANDAR UDARA KOMODO LABUAN BAJO

Keselamatan merupakan aspek yang sangat penting dalam operasional bandara, khususnya bagi petugas ground handling yang memiliki risiko tinggi terhadap kecelakaan kerja. Penerapan Safety Management System (SMS) menjadi sistem yang harus dipahami dan diterapkan oleh seluruh personel, terutama melalui pelatihan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh tingkat kesadaran SMS terhadap keselamatan kerja petugas ground handling berdasarkan data
pelatihan di Bandar Udara Komodo Labuan Bajo. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan pendekatan assosiatif kausiatif. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang digunakan adalah purposive sampling dengan
jumlah responden sebanyak 53 orang petugas ground handling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi dan penyebaran kuesioner. Instrumen diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya, dan data dianalisis menggunakan uji linearitas dan regresi linear sederhana.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang sangat kuat antara pelatihan SMS dengan tingkat kesadaran (ρ = 0,824) dan terdapat pengaruh
signifikan antara kesadaran SMS dengan keselamatan kerja (nilai signifikansi < 0,05). Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa pelatihan berperan penting dalam meningkatkan kesadaran, dan kesadaran yang tinggi berdampak positif terhadap perilaku
keselamatan kerja.Kata Kunci: Keselamatan kerja, Safety Management System (SMS), kesadaran, ground handling, pelatihan

Safety is a crucial aspect in airport operations, especially for ground handling personnel who are exposed to high risks of work-related accidents. The implementation of a Safety Management System (SMS) is essential and must be understood and applied by all personnel, particularly through training. This study aims to determine the effect of SMS awareness on the safety performance of ground handling staff based on training data at Komodo Airport, Labuan Bajo.This research employed a quantitative method with a descriptive
correlational approach. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling with a total of 53 ground handling personnel as respondents. Data collection was conducted through observations and questionnaires. The instruments were tested for validity and reliability, and the data were analyzed using linearitsas and simple linear regression tests.The results indicate a very strong correlation between SMS training and awareness level (ρ = 0.824) and a significant effect of SMS awareness on work safety (significance value < 0.05). This finding suggests that training plays a vital role in increasing awareness, and higher awareness contributes positively to safety behavior in the workplace.Keywords: Work safety, Safety Management System (SMS), awareness, ground handling, training
