Occupational Safety and Health (K3) is an aspect of activities in the work environment as a form of implementation of safe and comfortable work to achieve an organizational goal, namely zero incidents so as to increase effectiveness and productivity in the workplace. Workplace accidents can be caused by two things, namely unsafe actions and unsafe conditions. From work accident data, it is estimated that 85% of work accidents occur due to unsafe work behavior and the average accident is caused by human factors. PT. Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Terminal Petikemas Kendari is an Indonesian State-Owned Enterprise engaged in port services, specifically container services. In the past year, there have been 21 accidents involving operators who experienced incidents classified as light at PT. Pelindo. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors related to work accidents among operators at PT. Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Kendari Container Terminal in 2024. The design of this study was cross-sectional using quantitative research methodology. Using a total sampling of 49 peoples. The data analysis technique used the chi-square test and fisher's exact test on the SPSS application. The results showed that there was a relationship between K3 knowledge (0.011), behavior (0.035), use of PPE (0.001) and there was no relationship between supervision (1.000) and work accidents among operators at PT. Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Kendari Container Terminal. The researcher advised the company to improve K3 knowledge, provide rewards as motivation, and carry out punishments to discipline workers.

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women is a major nutritional challenge in Indonesia, including in Bukittinggi. Despite proper health service utilization, the burden of CED is relatively high and has a non-economic component that includes cultural and family social support.  The influence of the husband on the nutritional status of pregnant women is frequently overlooked by prevention and control strategies. This study sought to investigate husbands' thoughts and roles in the prevention of  CED  in pregnant women in  Bukittinggi.  The present study employed a qualitative phenomenological research design including 15 husbands of pregnant women (experienced and non-experienced  CED)  and  5–7  triangulation informants  (pregnant women and health workers).  Semi-structured interviews and non-participatory observations provided the data, while  NVivo  12  was employed for thematic analysis. Source triangulation and member checking validate the data. The results indicate that the majority of husbands do not understand CED scientifically and view their support solely as financial assistance. Although emotional and informational motivations can affect positive nutritional behaviors, they are still regarded as weaknesses. Among the external barriers are costs, long hours of work, and a patriarchal culture that severely restricts husbands' ability to be involved in their wives' nutritional problems. However, some informants have indicated a value shift that prioritizes emotional involvement over intellectual focus.  The  intervention strategies for future implementation should be family-based with a primary focus on couples' nutrition education, emotional  strengthening,  and  the  inclusion  of  males  in  maternal  health  programs  (e.g.,  paternity-readiness sessions
