Abstract
Environmental health risk assessment (EHRA) is conducted in Batu Putih village, Baturaja Barat. Based on the 2018 EHRA data, Batu Putih village, Baturaja Barat district, is classified as a very high risk environmental health village. Very high risk villages are Kelurahan/villages that have high environmental health risk due to poor sanitation in the area. The EHRA conducted in Batu Putih village is based on the latest practical guidelines, the 2014 guidelines for conducting EHRA. the 2014 guidelines are different from the previous guidelines and cover waste management, sanitation, environmental drainage, drinking water management, and hygienic and sanitary behavior. The objective of this study was to determine the quality of environmental health and community behavior in Batu Putih village, Baturaja Barat district, Ogan Komering Ulu regency, using EHRA 2014. The results showed that household waste was not disposed properly and most of the waste was disposed by burning. 100 percent of the respondents behave in a hygienic and sanitary manner by washing their hands with soap. The questions in the questionnaire and observation forms were guided by the five pillars of community-based sanitation (STBM) developed by the Indonesian Ministry of Health, and clean and healthy living behaviors (PHBS), including the practice of hand washing with soap (CTPS).
