Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of the use of Personal. Protective Equipment (PPE) in maintaining occupational safety on toll road projects through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to literature published between 2020 and 2025. Analysis was conducted on eight selected articles that were relevant and met the inclusion criteria. The results of the review indicate that the use of PPE is a central element in the implementation of effective Occupational Safety and Health (OHS) management in toll road construction projects. Compliance with the use of PPE has consistently been shown to significantly reduce the risk of work accidents. Factors that influence the effectiveness of PPE use include workers' understanding of OHS, the availability of adequate PPE facilities, management supervision, and the integration of a comprehensive OHS management system. This study concludes that efforts to improve education, supervision, and provision of appropriate PPE are essential to create an optimal occupational safety culture in the toll road project environment
