Abstract : Road construction projects involve various occupational hazards that may compromise occupational safety. This study aims to identify potential hazards, assess occupational accident risks, and develop appropriate risk control strategies in road construction projects in Manado City. A descriptive evaluative method with a quantitative retrospective approach was employed. Data were collected from 37 respondents through questionnaires, supported by project documents and Job Safety Analysis (JSA). Risk assessment was conducted using Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) based on severity, occurrence, and detection criteria, with risk priorities determined through the Risk Priority Number (RPN). The results indicate that excavation activities, asphalting, heavy equipment operations, and workplace conditions represent the highest risk activities. Landslide hazards during excavation were identified as the highest priority risk, with an RPN value of 25.15. Risk control measures include elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Effective implementation of these controls is expected to reduce accident risks and enhance occupational safety performance in road construction projects.

Keywords : Analysis, Risk, Accident, Workers, Construction, Road.
