“…The criterion for distinguishing between a work accident and a work injury is the extent to which the injury has been achieved or not, if the accident results in an individual or group of individuals being injured, it is called an injury, and there are those who believe that the accident should be associated with an individual's injury in order to be called a work accident, given that it is not enough for the harmful act to occur because of the work to be described as a work accident, but rather that this act must result in damages to The human body in order to acquire this description.

The purpose of this search is to verify the relationship of training quality including support of senior administration, employee participation, continuous improvement, customer focus, training, education and continuous motivation in work injuries of three causes, which are individual reasons, technical causes and factors associated with the workplace. (Electrical Projects Implementation Department/Central Region) Researchers have used the analytical exploratory descriptive curriculum as it fits into the research topic. To achieve the research objectives, two main topics were designed: Quality training and work injuries: The research community consisting of 236 members (Electrical Projects Implementation Department/Central Region) and 35 members were selected as research samples, and descriptive statistics were used to display the research variables and analytical statistics to test the hypotheses. A set of conclusions has been reached, perhaps the most important of which is from the statistical analysis, the presence of a good level of significance, with the participants realizing that the training quality has an impact on work injuries. Questions were directed to 35 members, which constituted about 15% of the total members, 56 of which were retrieved, and the collected data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical program.

“…At the same time, Hung [1] evaluated the effect of a designed "walk-through" extension ladder based on the kinetic behaviour and externally induced destabilizing forces on the ladder during the transition to elevation. Fall accidents still become the primary issue of ladder use due to structural safety features [6], loss of lateral stability [7], [8], suboptimal ladder inclination [9], [10], and lack of training and instruction system [11], [12]. Some biomechanical analyses result in an ergonomic hazard during ladder climbing tasks [13]- [17].…”

The bamboo ladder is a traditional construction equipment that still survives on the market and is in demand, especially in rural communities such as Kedalingan village. However, bamboo stairs still do not consider the standard of stairs design. In addition, there are concerns that users of the ladder may experience injury due to falls because the ladder cannot withstand the load (unbalanced). This study aims to obtain the maximum load that can be held by bamboo ladders and the angle of the position of the safe ladder by considering the Indonesian people's anthropometric weight. Calculation results based on the principle of equilibrium show that with a maximum user weight of 89.25 kg, the ladder must be positioned with a minimum slope of 53,26o but less than 65.43o. In addition, a static loading simulation was carried out using SolidWorks 2019 on a bamboo ladder frame structure that was made referring to SNI 19 - 1956 – 1990. Simulation results show that the design of a bamboo ladder can withstand a maximum body weight of 89.25 kg with the maximum load value of bamboo holding is 98.93 kg.
