Abstract

Social Security Employment Agency East Java also reported that deaths from occupational accidents were mostly in Gresik where 43 people died out of 310 who died in the entire region of East Java. According to Baker (2011), one of the causes of accidents is job stress. One cause of job stress is heavy work pressure. This study developed a problem focus coping model mechanism against environmental stressors to prevent unsafe work action in steel construction workers at production line. Design used in this study was cross sectional. Respondents studied were as many as 150 individuals who conducted unsafe action, mostly in moderate category, comprising 64 respondents (42.67%). Indicators of workplace stressors was in moderate category, in which managerial characteristic comprised 90 persons (60%) and interpersonal relationships of 100 persons (66.67%). Effect of coping mechanisms against unsafe action was highly significant with structural coefficient of -0.236. Problem focus coping mechanisms negatively affect unsafe action in respondents at production section of the steel construction, meaning that the higher the coping mechanism, the lower the unsafe action experienced by respondents at production section of the steel construction.
