defense law where the emergency doors are difficult to be opened and the
escape stairs are rusty and not suitable for evacuation also there are no
emergency light on the escape routes. At the maintenance workshop, one

activities in a closed room without any ventilation. This represents high
risk for the welder due to the likelihood of fire and suffocation

containers with solid and plastic wastes that may cause fire. Another
finding, fire extinguishers are found all over areas and administration
