Abstract

Background: Occupational Health and Safety efforts should be organized to realize optimal work productivity in all workplaces, especially places that are at risk of health hazards, are susceptible to disease or have employees of at least 10 people. Radiology services using C-Arm X-ray aircraft in the Surgical Room is very important because it is needed as a guding of surgery.
