Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of metrological supervision at Baubau City petrol stations. The research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, where data is collected through field observations, documentation, and interviews with supervisory officers and petrol station managers. The results of the study show that supervision is carried out with an integrative approach, including technical examinations in accordance with regulations, education to business actors, and proportionate law enforcement. Officers are present in team formations with standardized tools and administrative documentation, and actively involve petrol station managers in the process of testing and clarifying results. This practice reflects transparent, educational, and participatory supervision. The recommendations given include strengthening the capacity of officers, digitizing documentation, increasing the participation of business actors and the community, and periodic evaluation of the supervision system. The researcher is then advised to conduct a comparative study between regions and measure the impact of supervision on business actors' compliance in order to produce a more measurable and applicable supervision policy
