Abstract

This research aimed to describe the implementation of occupational safety and environmental health (OSEH) learning by teachers in the construction and property technology expertise programme. This research was conducted at five Indonesian vocational high schools that held the construction and property technology expertise programme. The population of this research was all vocational high school students in South Sulawesi province. Based on the cluster random sampling technique, five schools were selected to be the research sample with a total of 270 students. The results showed that the implementation of OSEH learning was carried out extremely well by the teachers in all of the schools under study. However, only 20% of the students had adequate OSEH knowledge, which indicates the need for the improvement of their knowledge. While the students' attitudes towards the implementation of OSEH were generally good, they reported that their schools lacked personal protective equipment to be used during their practicum, thereby showing the need for more facilities. © 2022 Birlesik Dunya Yenilik Arastirma ve Yayincilik Merkezi.
