The method used to identify is the Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Control (HIRAC) technique. HIRAC used to help provide an understanding of the hazards that exist in each work process to minimize the occurrence of adverse Occupational Diseases. This research is qualitative research with observation and interview data collection techniques.
