Abstract

he job that gets much exposure to gasoline is selling gasoline, exposed to gasoline fumes quite often. Workers are significantly at risk of DNA damage due to the genotoxic nature of these substances. Currently, there are still many gas station workers who do not use PPE when working. Workers do not seem to pay attention and maintain personal hygiene while working. After holding the gas station and holding the money directly, eat food. Protective equipment in the workplace is often neglected by workers or employees, even by workplace management.
