  • The Fuel Filling Station is one of the places where the ambient air can contain CO. At certain concentrations CO can provide health effects. So that this research was conducted with the aim of analyzing environmental health risks of CO exposure to the operator in the Palembang city gas station. The sampling technique is Purposive Sampling. Respondents of this study were all selected operators in the Palembang city gas stations totaling 72 people.The data analysis technique used is univariate. The results showed that at SPBU A the average CO concentration at the time of day shift and night shift measurement was 37.5 mg / m3 and 31 mg / m3. This concentration exceeds SNI 19-7119.6-2005 and PP No. 41 of 1999 which is 29 mg / m3. In the ARKL, the Rfc value is 2.48 mg / kg / day. The CO intake value’s influenced by number of working hours each day (tE), which is 8 hours/day, number of exposure days in the year (fE), which is 283 days/year and length of work (Dt) in the year of 4.1 years and body weight (wb). The highest SPBU operator CO intake value is in the afternoon shift measurement at A gas station, which is 3.36242 for 30 years exposure. Based on the results of the study, the value of RQ> 1 at exposure of 20 years and 30 years lifetime with a value of 1.00 and 1.355 for exposure to 20 years lifetime in the afternoon shift and 1.121 for a 30-year lifetime exposure on the night shift.
