Abstract

The implementation of the Construction Safety Management System (CSMS) is a critical requirement for ensuring worker safety, public protection, and project success in the Indonesian construction industry. Despite the existence of regulatory frameworks such as Minister of Public Works and Housing Regulation (Permen PUPR) No. 10 of 2021, the level of CSMS implementation varies significantly across projects. This study evaluates the current practice of CSMS in a road and bridge preservation project: the BTS Kota Palopo – BTS Kabupaten Luwu project in South Sulawesi, executed by PT. Millenium Persada. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining field observations, document reviews, and structured interviews with project personnel, guided by the audit criteria in Permen PUPR No. 10 of 2021. The assessment covered five core elements of CSMS: Leadership and Worker Participation, Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, Operational Safety Management, Internal Audit, and Management Review. The results indicate an overall implementation level of 80.93%, categorized as "Good" according to Government Regulation No. 50 of 2012. However, several gaps were identified, including inconsistent communication, inadequate supervision, insufficient safety training, and non-compliance in equipment operation procedures. Using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis via Expert Choice software, key improvement strategies were prioritized: strengthening internal supervision, enhancing safety training programs, improving safety signage, and adopting digital monitoring tools. This study provides empirical evidence of CSMS performance in infrastructure preservation projects and offers practical recommendations for contractors and regulatory bodies to improve safety outcomes and move toward zero accident goals.
