Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the application of occupational safety and health in the construction safety management system and develop a framework for implementing it based on PUPR ministerial regulation Number 10 of 2021, to support infrastructure development in East Java Province. Method: This study used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach to gather detailed descriptions of participants' impressions, opinions, and views.

The research involved six participants and took place at the Department of Public Housing in East Java Province. Results and conclusion: The results and conclusions of the research unveil (1) 8 groups of themes and meanings shaping the implementation of occupational safety and health within the construction safety management system, rooted in PUPR Ministerial Regulation Number 10 of 2021 to bolster infrastructure development in East Java Province. (2) These findings are consolidated into 8 major propositions, leading to the construction of a comprehensive model for implementing occupational safety and health aligned with PUPR Ministerial Regulation Number 10 of 2021. Research implications: The findings of this study can help construction companies and policymakers in East Java Province and beyond improve safety measures. Understanding the framework developed here can lead to safer work environments for construction workers. The qualitative methods used in this research also add to the toolbox of qualitative research methods, providing effective ways to capture subjective experiences. Originality/value: This study offers a unique framework for implementing safety measures in construction projects, specifically designed for the East Java Province and based on relevant regulations. By bringing together various themes from qualitative data, it presents new perspectives on applying regulatory frameworks. Additionally, the use of Alfred Schutz's approach enhances our understanding of how regulations, organizational practices, and individual experiences interact to ensure safety.
