Abstract. Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is a fundamental right of workers that must be fulfilled by companies as an integral part of labor law protection. Repeated workplace accidents, particularly the smelter furnace explosion at PT Indonesia Tsingshan Stainless Steel (ITSS) Morowali, indicate serious weaknesses in the implementation of the Occupational Safety and Health Management System (OSHMS) as well as inadequate government supervision in the labor sector. This situation has resulted in significant losses for workers and reflects the company’s negligence in complying with occupational safety and health standards. This research aims to analyze the forms of legal protection provided to workers who are victims of workplace accidents at PT ITSS Morowali and to assess the effectiveness of OSHMS implementation based on the prevailing laws and regulations. The research employs a normative legal research method using a statutory approach and a case approach, supported by secondary data in the form of legislation, legal literature, and media reports. The findings reveal that legal protection for victims of workplace accidents has not been optimally implemented, both in terms of accident prevention and the fulfillment of workers’ rights after workplace accidents. Furthermore, the study identifies negligence by the company in applying OSH standards and weak law enforcement by labor inspection authorities. Therefore, this research recommends strengthening law enforcement, improving supervision, and ensuring the company’s commitment to consistently implementing the OSHMS in order to guarantee the safety and welfare of workers.
