Abstract: High-risk mechanical and ergonomic hazards necessitate strict occupational safety and health (OSH) practices to mitigate workplace accidents and promote worker welfare in the steel wheel rim industry. The study aims to analyze the impact of OSH supervision and communication on workers' safe behavior within the heavy steel rim sector. A total of 72 respondents participated in this research, with findings indicating that most respondents received good supervision (58 respondents) and exhibited safe behavior (60 respondents). Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate the relationship between safe behavior, supervision, and communication. Results demonstrate that good supervision nearly doubles the likelihood of safe behavior (OR = 1.97), while effective communication increases the probability of safe behavior more than fivefold (OR = 5.15). Although this model accounts for only 9.8% of the variation in safe behavior (Pseudo R-squared = 0.09821), these findings underscore the importance of effective communication and proactive supervision in fostering a safe work environment. It is recommended that companies prioritize these two factors to enhance worker safety.
