Data analysis uses multiple linear regression analysis which aims to determine the extent to which certain independent variables influence the dependent variable. Based on the results of the multiple linear regression multivariate test, it shows that of the 133 respondents, the most influential variable among the other variables is the negligence variable with a significant value of 0.002, where the result is smaller than 0.05 and has a positive sign, while the result of the Standardized Beta Coefficient is -0.373. smaller than other variables, meaning that the negligence variable has a negative and significant effect on the potential for work accidents.
