Abstract
The mosque plays a very important role in the lives of Muslims. Besides being a place of worship, mosques also serve as centers for religious, educational, social, and cultural activities. For that reason, the presence of representative and comfortable mosques is greatly needed by the community. One of the community groups that plays a strategic role in da^wah is the youth group. The Masjid Sejuta Pemuda is present as an effort to become a platform for the youth^s involvement in da^wah agendas. The construction and renovation of the Masjid Sejuta Pemuda are largely supported by funds from donors. This condition causes the construction and renovation to be carried out in stages. With these various challenges, efforts to improve occupational health and safety become important. As individuals in the field of health, the volunteer team from the Faculty of Medicine at Bandung Islamic University has taken the initiative to provide support in the form of guidance on occupational safety and health aspects in the process of building and renovating the Mosque of a Million Youth. These efforts are carried out through several stages, namely hazard identification, risk assessment, and hazard control implementation. These efforts will be conducted in various forms of activities such as training, mentoring, hazard potential mapping, medical evacuation, and various forms of educational resources for volunteers and workers. This activity is supported by a group of volunteers from the Indonesian Youth Movement Sharing, who will jointly strive to carry out this community service activity. The mandatory output targets of this community service program are in the form of scientific publications through health and science integration journals, mass media publications, and activity documentation. Program achievement evaluation is conducted using the pre-test and post-test method to assess knowledge of the health and safety management system.
