Lastly as a recommendation of this study is based on the result and also the problem that occurred when carried out this study, there are a many workers especially foreigner worker that do not understand or do not get enough knowledge about the management of farm chemical in compliance with standard safety policy. So they need to be educate with knowledge because foreigner worker major general worker in plantation. Moreover, adding other factor that can impact the result.
