Introduction With the intensification of the country’s development process, the expansion of cities and population, and the inclusion of Iran in the accident-prone category, reducing the vulnerability of non-structures has received more attention from the organizations involved. In addition to damage to communities and infrastructure, accidents can affect hospitals and their non-organizational components. Hospitals, as the front line of providing medical services after accidents, must maintain their stability, ensure the safety of their patients and employees, and continue to operate without interruption as in normal conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the non-structural safety and their preparedness to ensure they can perform acceptable in critical conditions. Methods This applied research was conducted in 2023 (September to December) using the participatory action research method in all selected hospital departments. The level of non-structural preparedness of the hospital was checked using the valid “Hospital Safety Index” questionnaire and the non-structural weaknesses of the hospital were identified. Then, in action research using the FOCUS-PDCA model, a program was implemented to improve the non-structural preparedness of different departments of hospitals in the face of accidents and disasters. The non-structural readiness level of the hospital was compared before and after the implementation of the change. Results Based on the evaluation conducted in the present study, the lowest level of safety was observed in the water supply system, office furniture and appliances, and fuel storage. The waste management systems, the fire protection system, and the long-distance communication systems were at a desirable performance level. Although in the evaluation before the change, the overall score of the hospital was 71.01%, and it had a desirable performance level in non-structural factors, in all the involved parts of the hospital, the sensitive, critical, and practical parts in the operation of the hospital had an average and sometimes low safety level. According to the obtained safety score, the safety level of the selected hospital before the change was 7 out of 10 (level seven of safety evaluation = medium). After the change and corrective measures, the non-structural safety assessment score was 76.93, and the hospital’s safety level was raised by one step to 8 out of 10 (8th level of safety assessment = relatively favorable). Conclusion The present study showed that the application of Total Quality Management (TQM), primarily its application tool FOCUS-PDCA, is efficient and helpful in improving the non-structural preparedness of hospitals. Using action research in the health field in accidents and disasters can open blind knots in different dimensions of preparedness (structural, non-structural, and functional).

CV Delimas adalah salah satu perusahaan pada bidang percetakan tertua di kota Balikpapan yang berdiri sekitar tahun 1970 yang terletak di Manggar, Balikpapan Timur. Pada proses produksi box packaging di CV Delimas dilakukan pada area kerja yang kurang mendukung kepuasan karyawan nya saat bekerja karena penempatan peralatan dan material berada di tempat yang tidak pada tempat dan fungsinya, sehingga menyebabkan lantai produksi menjadi kotor. Pendekatan dalam manajemen industri yang dapat digunakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas dan efisiensi proses terhadap permasalahan di atas yaitu PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Action) dan 5S (Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, Shitsuke). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan analisis dan penerapan metode PDCA serta 5S untuk membentuk standarisasi dan menjaga kebersihan lingkungan kerja, sehingga mampu meningkatkan kepuasan karyawan dalam bekerja. Hasil yang diperoleh pada kuesioner setelah penerapan mendapatkan nilai kepuasan karyawan hingga 67% dan nilai checklist 5S mencapai 75% dengan skala baik. Pada pengujian hipotesis paired t-test mendapatkan t value > t tabel yakni sebesar 14,65 > 2,26. Berarti dalam penelitian terdapat perbedaan dan pengaruh positif terhadap kepuasan karyawan. Rekomendasi yang diberikan dengan membuat display, jadwal piket kebersihan dan jadwal pemeriksaan berkala diharapkan mampu untuk meningkatkan kepuasan karyawan. Kata kunci: Kepuasan Karyawan, Lingkungan Kerja, PDCA, 5S, Paired T-test, book packaging.
