Abstract

Noise is associated with a risk factor for several cardiovascular diseases, one of which is hypertension. Hypertension is estimated to cause 7,5 million deaths, or about 12.8% worldwide. The textile industry is exposed to high noise intensity because it constantly uses machines. The results of a preliminary study of noise measurement showed that the average at 6 points reached 90 dBA. The Threshold Value for the noise level contained in permitted government regulation is ≤ 85 dBA for duration of exposure of 8 hours. The measurement results exceed the threshold value. This study was analytical observational research with a Cross-sectional study design. The sample in this study was 74 workers textile industry in Semarang city. The average noise intensity measurement in the entire machine area of spinning unit 5 of the Semarang City Textile Industry is 87.49 dBA. Based on statistical test analysis, the results of noise levels (p-value = 0.037), working period (p-value = 0.015), and continuity of use of ear protection equipment (p-value = 0.048) and duration of exposure per day (p-value 0.510) were obtained. There is a significant relationship between noise level, working period, and continuity of Ear Protection Equipment use with the incidence of hypertension.

Abstract

The brick industry has the potential to create a source of pollution in the form of dust which is harmful to the environment and workers health from the burning process. This study aims to determine the risk factors and analyze the relationship between dust exposure and symptoms of respiratory disorder in workers. This study used the total sampling technique to choose a sample of 75 participants for an observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The results showed that the average total dust particulate levels at 13 points was 1748.47 µg/Nm3 and the average inhaled dust content in 75 respondents of 4.56 mg/m3. The results of the analysis showed that the variables associated with symptoms of respiratory disorder were inhaled dust levels (p=0.023), working period (p=0.040), length of exposure (p=0.032), and use of personal protective equipment (p=0.015). Workers in the brick sector in Tegowanuh Sub-District may have respiratory symptoms more frequently depending on their exposure to amounts of inhaled dust, working period, exposure duration, and use of personal protective equipment. During the work process, it is advised to use personal protective equipment as a mask to prevent the onset of respiratory problems.

Abstract

High environmental health quality status is an environmental condition that needs to be preserved. Poor environmental health quality is closely related to the level of heavy pollution status and the high incidence of waterborne disease. In 2018 there were 25 rivers with heavy pollution status in Indonesia and the condition is worsened in 2019 with as many as 38 rivers in the condition of heavy pollution status. Water pollution can be a factor in the emergence of waterborne diseases such as diarrhea, typhoid and leptospirosis. This study aimed to provide an overview of the water pollution index and the incidence of waterborne disease on the Semarang East Flood Canal with a spatial modelling approach. This research was a spatial analysis approach. The type of data in this study is quantitative with retrieval 6 sampling points on the east bank of The Canal Flood which was then analyzed with spatial-Gis modelling. Parameters for the water pollution index were total coliform, faecal coliform, dissolved oxygen, and anionic detergent. From the results of the calculation of the water pollution index, sample points 1-6 (T1-T6) are categorized with mild pollution status. However, when viewed from each parameter, there are total coliform, faecal coliform, dissolved oxygen parameters that exceed the quality standard. Existing results and interviews obtained, waterborne disease in the work area of the public health centre related to istewater from the Semarang East Flood Kanal. From the existing results, most of the contamination from domestic activities that do not have a istewater treatment plant and in T6 is an industrial area, which allows the contamination to come from industrial activities. Efforts are also needed to make istewater treatment installations either individually, semi-communally or communally to minimize water parameters exceeding quality standards.  Status kualitas kesehatan lingkungan yang tinggi merupakan kondisi lingkungan yang perlu dilestarikan. Kualitas kesehatan lingkungan yang buruk erat kaitannya dengan tingkat status pencemaran berat dan tingginya insiden penyakit yang ditularkan melalui air. Pada tahun 2018 terdapat 25 sungai dengan status pencemaran berat di Indonesia dan kondisi tersebut diperparah pada tahun 2019 sebanyak 38 sungai dalam kondisi status pencemaran berat. Pencemaran air dapat menjadi faktor munculnya penyakit yang ditularkan melalui air seperti diare, tifus dan leptospirosis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran indeks pencemaran air dan kejadian penyakit yang ditularkan melalui air pada Banjir Kanal Timur Semarang dengan pendekatan pemodelan spasial. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian dengan pendekatan analisis spasial. Jenis data dalam penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan pengambilan 6 titik sampling di tepi timur Banjir Kanal yang kemudian dianalisis dengan pemodelan spasial-Gis. Parameter indeks pencemaran air adalah total coliform, fecal coliform, oksigen terlarut, dan deterjen anionik. Dari hasil perhitungan indeks pencemaran air, titik sampel 1-6 (T1-T6) dikategorikan dengan status pencemaran ringan. Namun jika dilihat dari masing-masing parameter terdapat parameter total coliform, fecal coliform, oksigen terlarut yang melebihi baku mutu. Hasil eksisting dan wawancara yang diperoleh, waterborne disease di wilayah kerja Puskesmas terkait dengan air limbah dari Kanal Banjir Timur Semarang. Dari hasil yang ada, sebagian besar pencemaran dari kegiatan domestik yang tidak memiliki instalasi pengolahan air limbah dan di T6 merupakan kawasan industri, yang memungkinkan pencemaran berasal dari kegiatan industri. Upaya juga diperlukan untuk membuat instalasi pengolahan air limbah baik secara individual, semi-komunal maupun komunal untuk meminimalkan parameter air yang melebihi baku mutu.

Abstract

Background: One of the main efforts in promoting sustainability is the implementation of ISO 14001, an international standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS). In addition to helping companies comply with environmental regulations and reduce the risk of legal sanctions, ISO 14001 also contributes to improving operational efficiency, reducing costs, and achieving business sustainability. Effective implementation not only supports environmental preservation but also creates healthier and more productive working conditions. Purpose: To analyze the implementation of the ISO 14001 environmental management system in a concrete production plant. Method: Descriptive observational research with a qualitative approach using a cross-sectional design. This research was conducted at a concrete production company in Demak City, namely PT Varia Usaha Beton Plant Sayung, which has been operating since 1991 and employs 59 workers. The researcher determined the main informant as the subject of this research, namely the manager who is directly responsible for the implementation of ISO 14001 and workers from the quality control section, while for the triangulation informant the researcher chose the Factory Head. ISO 14001 contains 10 clauses, but the researcher only used six clauses with a checklist to assess the implementation of ISO 14001, including organizational context, leadership, planning, support, operations, performance evaluation, and continuous improvement. Results: The implementation of ISO 14001 is in accordance with the standard of 87.2%. Around 71.1% of respondents have a smoking habit which is a major concern in the context of occupational health. This habit can increase the prevalence of health problems such as shortness of breath and flu/prolonged cough observed in some respondents. As many as 20.3% of respondents experienced shortness of breath while working, and 76.2% experienced flu or cough for more than a week. These figures are quite high and may indicate exposure to dust, air pollution, or poor ventilation in the workplace. Most respondents had no history of illness (83.1%), but the high prevalence of respiratory symptoms indicates the need for an environmental evaluation in the workplace. The results of dust measurements also showed that there were areas where the threshold value was exceeded. Conclusion: Although the company has taken positive steps in implementing an environmental management system, controlling dust and enhancing protection for workers remains a critical focus to prevent occupational diseases that are still occurring. Suggestion: To improve the effectiveness of the Environmental Management System (EMS), organizations need to strengthen operational control and communication with external suppliers to ensure that all processes and business partners meet the established environmental standards. In addition, emergency preparedness should be improved through regular evaluation of emergency response procedures, so that responses to critical situations can be faster and more effective.

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of linear growth disorders due to chronic lack of intake and occurs in many developing countries including Indonesia. Stunting is a problem because it is associated with an increased risk of illness and death, suboptimal brain development so that motor development is delayed and mental growth is inhibited, this can hinder the Indonesian government's program towards a superior and quality golden generation in 2045. The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for household environmental sanitation on the incidence of stunting in toddlers in Dongos Village, Kedung I Health Center, Jepara Regency. This study is an observational analytical study using a quantitative method with a case-control study design, namely a study comparing case and control groups and then retrospectively examining risk factors that might explain the incidence of stunting. The study sample was stunted and non-stunted toddlers, calculated using lemmeshow formula with the absolute accuracy proportion estimate with a total sample of 100 respondents divided into 50 case groups and 50 control groups. Data analysis with Chi Square test then further using logistic regression test using prediction modeling. The results of the study showed that unsafe household waste management has a risk factor of 3.6 times greater for stunting in toddlers (p-value 0.029; Odds Ratio = 3.632; 95% CI = 1.082- 12.183). Houses with unsafe household waste management have a 5.2 times greater risk of experiencing stunting in toddlers (p-value 0.025; Odds Ratio = 5.268; 95% CI = 1.077- 25.779). Household toilet ownership (p value = 0.400) and household drinking water consumption patterns (p value = 0.338) were not proven to be risk factors for stunting in toddlers in Dongos Village, Kedung I Health Center working area, Jepara Regency.
