Occupational accident is an unexpected and unplanned occurrence, including acts of violence, arising out of or in connection with work which results in one or more workers incurring a personal injury, disease or death. Based on several studies, unsafe behavior is one of the major causes of occupational accident (80%). There are two (2) main factors that influence a person's behavior, ie internal factors and external factors. Ship inspection work has risk for great danger, enough to cause death. Approach to safety behavioral is an effort for the employees of ships inspection to avoid the risk or potential danger while doing inspection of ships. This study aimed to analyze the internal factors and external factors related to the safety behavior during the inspection of the ship. The variable of internal factors includes gender, age, education level, employment status, working period, safety and health knowledge, skill and the intention to carry out safety behavior. The variable of external factors includes the training of K3, the availability of PPE, the availability of labor and materials, nearmiss history, safety and health policy, and sanctions. This study was an observational study with cross sectional approach. This study was conducted in the Port Health Office Class I Surabaya. The population of this study were employees of ship inspection, 36 people with the sampling technique by using accidental sampling for 1 (one) month with a sample size of 25 people. Based on the research for the internal factors, obtained three variables which have a relationship with the safety behavior, they are gender (p-value=0.021, r= 0.419), skill (p-value=0.004, r= 0.557) and intentions (p-value=0.009, r=0.464). There are two variables in the external factors which have a relationship with the safety behavior, the variable of availability of PPE (p-value=0.002, r=0.535) and the variable of availability of tools and materials (p-value=0.002, r=0.535). Results based on Logistic regression analysis showed that intention is the only variable which is associated to the safety behavior (R-square=0.512 and Exp (B)=19). It is recommended to the Port Health Office Class I Surabaya to conduct PPE training, increased the supervision of safety behavior, and develop systems for recording and reporting occupational accident and nearmiss.
