Fire is a threat to human safety, property and the environment. With the increasingly rapid development and progress of development, the risk of fires is increasing. Shophouses or shophouses are places that are prone to fires. The increasingly dense population and the construction of office buildings have created a vulnerability in the event of a fire. Preventive efforts must be carried out by each individual and work unit, so that casualties from fire incidents can be minimized. Fires can cause moral, material and even human life losses. Fires that hit public facilities, of course, cause losses to many people. Shophouse fires often occur suddenly due to short circuits, gas explosions or due to sparks from cigarettes/matches. The research carried out this time focuses on creating a fire detection system using ESP32 and Arduino. The system uses three sensors, namely a temperature sensor, a gas sensor and a fire sensor. Temperature sensors are useful for monitoring room temperature conditions, fire sensors are useful for detecting the presence of fire in a fire disaster and gas sensors are useful for detecting the presence of smoke that appears as a result of a fire disaster. This system uses an ESP32 microcontroller and uses the Arduino IDE application. The results of the fire detection system are expected to reduce the occurrence of fire accidents and also losses caused by fire accidents.

The importance of K3 in the tugboat bunkering process is not only limited to safety aspects, but also has a direct impact on ship readiness. Implementing good K3 ensures that bunkering is carried out in accordance with existing procedures. In addition, implementing good K3 will support the operations of ships that have been bunkered so that the ship can continue to operate effectively in supporting various maritime transportation needs. The research method used is the HIRADC (Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Determining Control) method. HIRADC is a method of risk management. For data collection techniques in this research, field observations, interviews and company data were used. In this data analysis and discussion, an analysis of the data processing that has been carried out will be carried out, namely identifying potential risk values ​​and considering the risk ranking to determine priorities and methods of control. After the data analysis and discussion, the next step is to draw conclusions from the data analysis that has been carried out. In the process of filling a ship with fuel (bunker), various dangers or risks can arise throughout the stages of the activity. Hazard identification involves recognizing and documenting the various potential elements that could cause an accident or health problem. For example, slipping, being pinched, being hit by a fuel pump hose during the bunkering process are also aspects that need to be identified as dangers. The work activity identified in this research is the activity of filling the ship with fuel (bunker), then carrying out a risk assessment of the work activity, then determining the necessary hazard and risk controls with the aim of preventing accidents. Data processing will be carried out using the HIRADC method. This step will later become input and suggestions that can be implemented at PT Pelindo Marine Service as a reference for determining steps to deal with work accidents that occur. The importance of identifying hazards in ship bunkering activities is to develop effective prevention strategies and ensure that appropriate safety measures are taken. For example, if hazards related to slips and falls are identified, measures such as special training for operators, use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and strict implementation of standard operating procedures (SOPs) can be impl

The Family Planning (KB) program is carried out in order to regulate the number of births or space births. Injectable contraception is one of the contraceptive methods that is widely used in Indonesia because it works effectively, is practical to use, is relatively cheap, and is safe. One of the ways injectable contraception works is to cause changes in the menstrual cycle to increase body weight which is the most frequently complained about by injectable contraceptive acceptors. Injection methods are divided into two types, namely 1-month injectable contraceptives and 3-month injectable contraceptives. 1-month contraceptive injection is a type of birth control injection that contains a combination of the hormone Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (progestin hormone) and Estradiol cypionate (estrogen hormone), and 3-month contraceptive injection is an injectable contraceptive containing the Depo Medroxyprogesterone Acetate hormone p (progestin hormone) with a volume of 150 mg. The aim of this study was to analyze differences in body weight among injectable contraceptive acceptors. This type of research uses analytical observational research methods. This research sample was taken using the Accidental Sampling technique with a sample size of 42 respondents. Analysis uses the sign difference test. The sign test results showed that there was a relationship between the use of injectable birth control (P < 0.05) and weight gain.
