This research is motivated by the problem of less awareness of the PLN work officers / employees
which is ruled out the OSH by not heeding the regulations that have been contained in the Standard Operating
Procedure (SOP), caused many accidents every year. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with
10 people informants. The results of this study indicate that (1) zero accident which was the goal of
implementing this policy was not achieved, work accident still happens. This work accidents are caused by a
number of reasons, among them are the OSH experts less in each rayon, competence less of the field
supervisors, the systematically budget realization, the awareness less of field officers about the importance of
OSH, (2) the authority of each section which is mostly related to the Occupational Safety and Health Policy has
not been implemented properly, the number of violations on SOP makes the implementation of OSH policy not
run well.
