Abstract

Workplace noise is one of the physical factors that is often overlooked, although long-term exposure can have serious impacts on cardiovascular health. In workers exposed to noise, blood pressure and heart rate often increase as the body's response to physical stress. This physiological mechanism triggered by prolonged noise can result in an increased risk of cardiovascular disorders, including hypertension and heart rhythm disorders. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of noise on increasing blood pressure and heart rate in workers in the workshop area, especially the dynotest room. This type of research is observational with a cross-sectional research design. Conducted in December - May 2024 with the object of research on workers exposed to noise in the workshop area, especially the dynotest room. Data were analyzed using the Logistic Regression test. The total sample was 40 workers in the workshop area and dynotest room. Data were collected from observations, room noise measurements, blood pressure, and heart rate. Based on the results of the study, the average results for the dynotest area were 83.5 dBA, while for the dynotest room, the average results were 117.8 dBA. The results of statistical tests of blood pressure and pulse rate in workers obtained a sig value = 0.001. These results indicate an increase in blood pressure and pulse rate due to noise. It is recommended for the Company to monitor workers to find out the disorders caused by noise.

Abstract

Purabaya Terminal is characterized by high vehicle density, making it a potential source of air pollution, particularly from fossil fuel-powered vehicles, such as diesel, which emit sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas. Exposure to SO2 poses health risks to traders nearby, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, watery eyes, and dizziness. This study aimed to analyze the health risk levels associated with SO₂ exposure to traders at Purabaya Terminal. The research utilized an Environmental Health Risk Analysis (EHRA) approach with a quantitative descriptive design and a cross-sectional method. A sample of 32 traders was selected using purposive sampling techniques. Air sampling was conducted at four locations within the terminal, and data analysis assessed exposure levels and potential health risks to traders. The average SO2 concentration was found to be 0.018 mg/m3, which is below the threshold limit set in the Minister of Manpower Regulation No. 5 of 2018. The average air temperature was 29.9 oC, with humidity at 78.7% and wind speed at 1.14 m/s from the west. Intake exposure values ranged from 0.0007 to 0.0033 mg/kg/day, while the reference dose (RfC) was 0.026 mg/kg/day. Risk characterization calculations (RQ) indicated that all respondents had RQ values ≤ 1. The study concludes that SO2 exposure levels for traders remain within acceptable health risk range and do not pose a non-carcinogenic health risk. However, it is recommended that traders use personal protective equipment such as masks and that terminal management conducts regular air quality monitoring.

Abstract

Noise in classrooms can disrupt communication between teachers and students, potentially affecting learning outcomes. Previous research indicates that noise exceeding environmental health standards may contribute to communication difficulties during lessons. This study aimed to analyze the effect of classroom noise and communication disruptions on students’ learning achievement. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 4th and 6th grade students at one of the elementary schools in South Surabaya. Noise levels were measured in the classrooms, and students were assessed for communication disruptions and learning achievement. Logistic regression was used for data analysis. All classrooms exceeded the environmental health noise threshold of 55 dB(A), with an average level of 67.45 dB(A). Noise was significantly associated with communication disruptions (OR = 5.118; p = 0.012). Classroom noise increased the risk of communication disruptions but did not directly affect students’ learning achievement. It is recommended to install soundproof partitions and double-glazed windows to reduce noise. Future studies should investigate the interaction between teaching methods and student achievement.

Abstract

In conclusion, workers at the Tropodo tofu factory are exposed to high levels of PM2.5, which may contribute to decreased lung function, particularly among older workers. Continuous air quality monitoring and engineering control measures are recommended to reduce occupational exposure and protect worker health.The tofu industry is a sector that potentially generates fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution, which can reduce workers’ lung function. Exposure to PM2.5 in the workplace is a significant issue due to its direct impact on respiratory health. This study aims to analyze the risk of PM2.5 exposure and worker characteristics on lung function at the Tropodo Tofu Factory, Sidoarjo. This research used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 20 workers selected based on inclusion criteria. PM2.5 concentrations were measured using a Dust Particle Counter TC-8200 PM2.5, while lung function was tested using spirometry and questionnaires on smoking habits and age. Data were analyzed using univariate and correlation analyses. The results showed an average PM2.5 concentration of 288 µg/m³, exceeding the national ambient air quality standard (55 µg/m³). The mean FEV1 value indicated a moderate decline in lung function. A significant correlation was found between PM2.5 exposure and workers’ age with lung function. In conclusion, PM2.5 exposure in tofu production environments poses health risks to workers’ respiratory function. It is recommended that the factory increase the use of personal protective equipment and adopt cleaner combustion technologies to reduce PM2.5 emissions.
