PT.X yang merupakan perusahaan logistik berbasis kereta api ini mempunyai potensi bahaya yang dapat memicu terjadinya kecelakaan di tempat kerja. Tujuan: Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui upaya dari perusahaan untuk mencegah terjadinya kecelakaan kerja melalui program K3 yang ada di perusahaan. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kualitatif. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu form wawancara mendalam, serta pengumpulan data dilakukan secara daring. Informan utama dan triangulasi dalam penelitian ini yaitu kepala cabang dan kepala operasional. Data dianalisis berdasarkan triangulasi metode dan triangulasi sumber. Hasil: Inspeksi, briefing, dan pelatihan merupakan program utama perusahaan yang berkaitan dengan K3, dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan iklim K3 di tempat kerja. Tetapi, perusahaan tidak menjalankan inspeksi rutin, kurangnya materi K3 pada saat briefing, dan kurangnya pelatihan pada pekerja. Kesimpulan: Program K3 yang ada di PT. X masing-masing mempunyai kelebihan serta kekurangan, dan menyarankan untuk meningkatkan atau memperbaiki program K3, seperti penerapan inspeksi rutin, adanya pelatihan, dan pemberian materi K3 pada saat briefing.
