This research is descriptive research which aims to describe the dwelled phenomena. There are several stages in this method, namely hazard identification, risk analysis, and risk control. The data is gathered by conducting observation before doing data matching with Mr. Achmad Tarmidzi, the Laboratory of Medical-Surgical’s worker. The research results indicate that from two activities performed in the Laboratory of Medical-Surgical at Faculty of Nursing Universitas Airlangga, such as injection practicum and wound care practicum, there are six hazards discovered, namely medicine in ampoule packaging, needle stick, alcohol, NaCl 0.9% solution, and Chlorine 0.5% solution. The risks ascertained are skin and eyes irritation caused by the exposure of chemical substances like alcohol, NaCl 0.9% solution, and Chlorine 0.5% solution. Other than that, the risks found belong to the categories of the low-risk level and moderaterisk level. The controls and recommendations provided are the conveyance of socialization regarding the practicum in accordance with the SOP, the wearing of PPE, such as rubber gloves, goggles, and long-sleeved shirts.

Abstract


Risk management is a system owned by all industrial sectors, including the industry in the educational sector, such as a university laboratory. Amongst the method of risk management that are usually applied is HIRADC method, which is a systematic stage to assess hazards, to analyze risks, and to devise controls according to the existed risks. This research is descriptive research which aims to describe the dwelled phenomena. There are several stages in this method, namely hazard identification, risk analysis, and risk control. The data is gathered by conducting observation before doing data matching with Mr. Achmad Tarmidzi, the Laboratory of Medical-Surgical’s worker. The research results indicate that from two activities performed in the Laboratory of Medical-Surgical at Faculty of Nursing Universitas Airlangga, such as injection practicum and wound care practicum, there are six hazards discovered, namely medicine in ampoule packaging, needle stick, alcohol, NaCl 0.9% solution, and Chlorine 0.5% solution. The risks ascertained are skin and eyes irritation caused by the exposure of chemical substances like alcohol, NaCl 0.9% solution, and Chlorine 0.5% solution. Other than that, the risks found belong to the categories of the low-risk level and moderaterisk level. The controls and recommendations provided are the conveyance of socialization regarding the practicum in accordance with the SOP, the wearing of PPE, such as rubber gloves, goggles, and long-sleeved shirts.
