Abstract:
Ramadhan, Surya Pratama. 2025. "Analysis of Stevedore Discipline Toward
Compliance in the Use of Safety Equipment on MV. Inlaco Bright”
This study discusses the importance of stevedore discipline in using safety equipment at
the Special Terminal of PT. Gunbuster Nickel Industri (GNI), particularly during coal
unloading operations on MV. Inlaco Bright. The main issue raised is the low level of
discipline and compliance among stevedores in using personal protective equipment,
which affects both safety and operational efficiency. This research applies a descriptive
qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, interviews, documentation,
literature review, and questionnaires distributed to 32 respondents. Data were analyzed
using the SWOT approach (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) along with
the interpretation of questionnaire results. Based on the SWOT analysis, the coordinates
X = 0.32 and Y = –0.53 were obtained, indicating a position in the diversification strategy
quadrant, where internal strengths outweigh external threats. This suggests that the
company has the potential to grow by utilizing its strengths to overcome challenges. The
study recommends improved supervision, sufficient safety equipment provision, and
continuous training programs to build a stronger safety culture in the port environment.
