CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
making Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assembly a critical process in the electronic
industry. Soldering is one of the most crucial steps in PCB assembly, where different
electronic components are bonded to the PCB using melted metal alloys, such as
in the health and safety. These risks often arise from the characteristics of electronic
components and the soldering process itself. Components that are sensitive to heat,
such as plastic connectors, can be damaged during the soldering process, leading to
metals, such as lead, nickel, and tin, which can cause respiratory problems and
risks. These studies provide guidelines and recommendations for proper safety
measures, including the use of appropriate protective gear, proper ventilation, and
regular monitoring of air quality in the soldering room. The goal of this study is to
identify and evaluate the particular risks involved in soldering electronic components
on printed circuit board assembly within the Grade 11 EPAS students in Francisco

This part of a research paper reviews literary works and studies which have
significant bearings, on the study to provide readers an overview of its nature and
background
According to J. Smith et al. (2019) This study investigates the health risks
associated with soldering fumes emitted during PCB assembly. It discusses the
composition of these fumes, which may include hazardous substances like lead, flux
fumes, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The research emphasizes the
substances, and ergonomic risks. The research proposes control measures, such as
performance within the context of PCB assembly. It discusses the risks associated
with excessive heat exposure, including potential damage to components and the
to ensure reliable PCB assembly. It addresses the potential risks associated with
poor soldering, such as insufficient solder joints, cold solder joints, and solder
bridging. The research provides insights into quality control methods, solder joint
PCB assemblies.
R. Gupta et al. (2015) This study examines the occupational hazards associated
with soldering operations in the electronics industry. It identifies potential risks, such
as thermal injuries, exposure to toxic fumes, and ergonomic issues. The research
lead-free soldering processes in PCB assembly, taking into account the shifting
consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and the need for proper waste
impacts.
These studies collectively contribute valuable insights into the risks involved in
these risks through appropriate control measures, safety protocols, and optimization

The likert scale question is a psychometric scale where question based on this
scale are used in a survey. It is one of the most widely used question types in a
survey. In a likert scale survey respondents don't choose between 'yes/no; there are

This study was conducted in Francisco Ramos National High School located at
Conception, Kabasalan, Zamboanga Sibugay. The study focuses on the senior high
school Grade 11 student under TVL tracks specially the EPAS students. They are
The procedure in the gathering of the data pertinent to this study includes the
following:
1. Permission to conduct the study. The permission to conduct the study will be
sought form then adviser and subject teacher of the respondents. An initial
communication was sent to explain the research and aim of the study.
2. Identifying the Respondents. The respondents of the study are the selected ten
