Occupational safety awareness is an important factor in preventing accidents in fertilizer warehousing environments that have physical and operational risks. This study aims to examine the influence of Work Safety Knowledge (X1), Occupational Safety Training Program (X2), and Occupational Safety Management Support (X3) on Occupational Safety Awareness Level (Y) among fertilizer warehouse workers. The study used a descriptive, quantitative approach with the survey method. The research population comprised 70 employees, and 60 respondents were selected using Slovin's formula (e=0.05) via simple random sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results of the analysis show that occupational safety knowledge has a positive and significant influence on work safety awareness (B=0.478; p<0.001), as well as occupational safety management support (B=0.521; p<0.001). Meanwhile, occupational safety training programs have a positive but not significant effect (B = 0.168; p = 0.127). Simultaneously, the three variables have a significant effect on Y (F=19.98; p<0.001) and explain 51,7% of the variation in occupational safety awareness (R²=0.517). In conclusion, increased safety awareness among warehouse workers is more influenced by strengthening OHS knowledge and consistent management support, while training requires improvements in methods, evaluation, and field implementation.References
