Abstract
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is an important component of the professional competence of automotive workers. This community service activity aimed to strengthen students’ knowledge of OHS implementation through an expert guest lecture entitled “Safety First: Strategies for OHS Implementation in the Modern Industrial Era.” The activity was conducted by the Automotive Engineering Technology Study Program, Faculty of Vocational Studies, Universitas Negeri Malang, using a contextual and reflective learning approach through problem orientation, an expert lecture, work-situation-based discussion, and evaluation. A total of 30 students completed a 10-item evaluation instrument using a 1–5 Likert scale. The evaluation results showed an overall mean score of 4.48, categorized as very good, with the highest score obtained for the relevance of the material to Automotive Engineering Technology (4.57). The activity contributed to strengthening students’ understanding of workplace risks, personal protective equipment (PPE), safe work procedures, safety culture, and readiness to enter automotive work environments.
