| Abstrak ABSTRACT NURANISA. Environmental Health Risk Analysis of Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Exposure among Mining Workers at PT IHIP, Morowali Regency (under the supervision of Kiki Sanjaya). Environmental Health Department Public Health Study Program Faculty of Public Health Tadulako University PM2.5 is an air quality indicator that can originate from combustion, motor vehicles, and mining industry activities that generate dust. A work environment exposed to dust can increase exposure levels by 10 to 100 times higher than non-dusty areas, potentially causing respiratory disorders such as Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI/ISPA), particularly among mining workers at PT IHIP in Morowali Regency. This study aims to analyze the risk of Particulate Matter (PM2.5) exposure among mining workers using the Environmental Health Risk Assessment (ARKL) approach. The population in this study consisted of 3,000 workers, with a sample size of 97 respondents obtained through a purposive sampling technique. Environmental sampling (composite sampling by time) was conducted using the HT-9600 PM2.5 Detector Particle Counter Monitor. Measurements of PM2.5 concentrations were carried out over 3 days at 10 locations, with readings taken every hour and at a distance of 100 meters between points. The results showed that the average PM2.5 concentration over the 3-day period was 16.8 µg/m³, which does not exceed the quality standard set by the Minister of Health Regulation (Permenkes) No. 2 of 2023, which is 55 µg/m³ within a 24-hour period. The highest average temperature recorded during measurement was 35.87°C, and the highest average humidity was 56.8%. All respondents had a Risk Quotient (RQ) ? 1, indicating that there is no immediate health risk due to PM2.5 exposure. Although no health risk was identified, it is recommended that the company provide dust control equipment, such as dust collectors, and implement air pollution concentration monitoring tools to ensure continuous data collection for further mitigation actions.
