This research was conducted in the paper production's company. These Paper products will be used as a cigarette paper. Along in the production's process, Company provides the machines and equipment that operated by workers. During the operations, all workers may potentially injured. It known as a potential hazard.

Then made the determination Risk Assessment Code (RAC) for each potential hazard, and gained 3 extreme risks, 10 high risks, 6 medium risks and 3 low risks.
