PENGENDALIAN PERSEDIAAN ALAT PELINDUNG DIRI DENGAN METODE ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY (STUDI KASUS DI: PERUSAHAAN INDUSTRI PAKAN TERNAK)

The Animal Feed Company is one of the most influential industries in Indonesia that focuses on the chicken feed industry. Currently, the animal feed industry in Indonesia, especially chicken feed, is estimated to control 80% of the staple food, where chicken meat can be affordably purchased by both upper and lower classes of society. With a 24-hour production schedule and high potential hazards, the company has committed to implementing an Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) system in its work area. Evidence of the application of OHS includes meeting the needs of PPE, so that PPE supplies must also be managed properly to meet the PPE needs of each worker. In managing PPE inventory, companies can use the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) method to determine the optimal purchase. EOQ not only calculates optimal purchases but can also find out safety stock, reorder points, and purchase frequency. The results of the calculation analysis of the 8 types of PPE used by the company obtained differences between before and after using the EOQ method, after calculating using the EOQ method, the optimal purchase results in fulfilling PPE in the form of safety helmets, the optimal purchase results were 152 pc orders, safety stock 52 pc and reorder point 94 pc. Meanwhile, for the system used by the previous company, there were frequent orders for large quantities, namely all workers, there was no safety stock.
