Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal complaints often occur in saleswomen who do awkward standing during work. Repair of standing position can reduce the risk of musculoskeletal pain. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of corrective work posture on alleviating musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) symptoms among saleswomen in the department store.Subjects and Method: This was a quasi experiment before and after with no control design conducted in Rantauprapat department store, North Sumatera. A sample of 30 sales women from the department store was selected for this study. The dependent variable was MSD scores as measured by Nordic Body Map (NBM). The independent variables were corrective work posture. The data before and after corrective work posture were compared and tested by t-test.Results: There was a difference between poor and good posture in MSD symptoms among saleswomen in the Department Store. Saleswomen with poor posture had higher MSD symptoms (mean 64.45) than those with good posture (53.39), and it was statistically significant (p= 0.001).Conclusions: Saleswomen with poor posture has higher MSD symptoms than those with good postureKeywords: musculoskeletal disorders, work posture correction, Nordic Body MapCorrespondence:Nailatun Nadrah.

Abstract

Good implementation of SMK3 is closely related to the rate of work accident, but work accidents still occur in some companies in Indonesia although they have implemented SMK3. PKS (Oil Palm Plant) Kebun Rambutan also underwent work accident although it implemented SMK3. There were 20 cases of mild work accident in 2014, 14 cases of mild work accident in 2015, 23 cases of work accidents in 2015 (2 of them were serious work accidents). The objective of this research was to find out the implementation of SMK3 and its implication on the incidence of work accident.The research used qualitative method which was aimed to find out clearly and deeply the implementation of SMK3 and its implication on the incidence of work accident. The research informants were the management of P2K3. The data were analyzed in three processes: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion.The result of the research showed that the obstacles of implementing SMK3 which had the implication on work accident were as follows: the management did not carry out SMK3 properly since the implementation of K3 was not in target, lack of supervision, evaluation on each activity was not optimally done, and employees’ unsafe attitude/action such as working without complying with SOP and without using Personal Protective Devices during their working in the field. The conclusion of the research was that in the implementation of SMK3 at the PKS Kebun Rambutan, including the implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of its performance were bad. Keywords: Implementation, Evaliation Of SMK3, Work Accident, Tebing Tinggi, 2017.      Penerapan SMK3 yang terlaksana dengan baik akan berkorelasi dengan berkurangnya angka kecelakaan kerja, namun di beberapa perusahaan di Indonesia kecelakaan kerja masih terjadi meskipun perusahaan telah menerapkan SMK3, begitupun dengan PKS Kebun Rambutan selama penerapan SMK3 juga masih terjadi kecelakaan kerja, pada tahun 2014 terdapat 20 kasus kecelakaan kerja tipe ringan, tahun 2015 terdapat 14 kasus kecelakaan kerja tipe ringan, tahun 2016 terdapat 23 kasus kecelakaan kerja, 2 kasus diantaranya merupakan kecelakaan kerja berat. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana penerapan SMK3 dan implikasinya terhadap kejadian kecelakaan kerja.Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif yaitu  penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui secara jelas dan mendalam tentang penerapan SMK3 dan implikasinya terhadap kejadian kecelakaan kerja. Informan penelitian ini adalah pihak manajemen yaitu P2K3. Analisis data dilakukan dengan tiga proses yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa yang menjadi kendala dalam penerapan SMK3 sehingga berimplikasi terhadap kejadian kecelakaan kerja adalah pelaksanaan SMK3 yang belum terlaksana dengan baik oleh pihak manajemen dalam hal pelaksanaan program K3 yang tidak tepat sasaran, kurangnya pengawasan oleh pihak manajemen, evaluasi dari setiap kegiatan yang belum terlaksana dengan optimal serta sikap/tindakan tidak aman tenaga kerja seperti bekerja tidak sesuai dengan SOP, tidak menggunakan Alat Pelindung Diri ketika bekerja.Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, diharapkan kepada pihak manajemen PKS Kebun Rambutan untuk melaksanakan sosialisasi secara terus menerus tentang penerapan SMK3, melakukan pengawasan yang lebih optimal dan melibatkan tenaga kerja secara aktif dalam semua kegiatan yang dilakukan, melakukan evaluasi terhadap setiap kegiatan yang dilakukan untuk melihat efektivitas kegiatan tersebut. Kata Kunci : Pelaksanaan K3, Pemantauan K3, Kecelakaan Kerja,Tebing Tinggi, 2017.

Abstract

The work system applied to government agencies is influenced by several ergonomic aspects involved in the process. This includes interactions between workers and the work type, tools used, internal and external environmental conditions, and related organizations. The lack of application of organizational ergonomics to employees causes low work motivation among employees. This study aimed to determine the relationship between organizational ergonomics and the work motivation of employees at the Ministry of Religion Binjai. This study was quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The population was all employees at the Office of the Ministry of Religion Binjai, totaling 62 people. The sampling technique was total sampling. Data was collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the product-moment correlation test. The results showed that there was a relationship between vertical communication, and work motivation (p=0.020), there was a relationship between horizontal communication and work motivation (p=0.000), there was a relationship between training and work motivation (p=0.000), there was a relationship between teamwork and work motivation (p=0.000). The variable most related to the very strong category was teamwork, with a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.901. Employees should be more open and instill a sense of trust among employees towards the work being done, especially by establishing good communication so that good teamwork can be created to increase employee motivation.

Abstract

Hospitals are workplaces with diverse potential hazards, thereby increasing the risk of occupational accidents and diseases. Managing these potential hazards can be done by implementing occupational health and safety (OHS) standards in accordance with Permenkes No. 66 Tahun 2016. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with the implementation of OHS standards among nurses at Class II Putri Hijau Hospital. This research is an analytic survey with a crosssectional approach. The sample consisted of 100 respondents selected using proportionate stratified random sampling and data were collected through interviews using questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted using the chisquare test. The results showed a significant relationship between biological factors (p<0,05), ergonomic factors (p<0,05), and electrical factors (p<0,05) with the implementation of OHS standards. The implementation of OHS standards, specifically the standards of OHS Risk Management, Hospital Safety and Security, and Fire Prevention and Control has not been optimally applied, as only 35% of nurses implemented the standards properly. This is due to inadequate risk identification, control, and mitigation, as evidenced by the presence of biological agents (viruses, bacteria, fungi, parasites) that can cause infectious diseases, tasks still being performed manually, improper working postures, and the persistent risk of electrocution, fire, or explosion. It is recommended that the hospital strengthen its commitment to OHS implementation by conducting regular training and socialization, imposing sanctions for non-compliance with PPE usage and hand hygiene protocols, maintaining protective biological facilities, providing adequate PPE and vaccination access, ensuring legal protection, addressing ergonomic complaints, supplying ergonomic assistive devices, performing regular electrical system maintenance, providing fire extinguishers and early fire detection systems, and establishing fire response teams in every unit.
