Abstract

Abstract Mass casualty incident (MCI) in industrial area is a definite threat that can result in environmental damage and loss of property and life. The causes of MCI can range from traffic accidents, industrial accidents, fires, toxic gases and terrorism. Paramedics, along with others emergency response team is among the first to reach at the incident scene to provide aid. Preparation is vital in ensuring that the response is fast, effective and efficient. The objective of the study is to analyze the relationship between knowledge, skills, attitudes and training on MCI Preparedness of paramedic in the XYZ Industrial city. Methodology of this paper is quantitative descriptive with cross sectional approach, while data analysis used the partial least square-structural equation model (PLS-SEM). 108 paramedics in XYZ industrial city involved and completed the survey. The research consist 5 latent variable models with 31 indicator variables. Data retrieval use a direct-share questionnaire. The result from data analysis revealed there is a positive and significant relationship between knowledge, skills, attitudes and training on MCI preparedness at t-value<1.96. Meanwhile, Skill has the most influence on MCI preparedness. Paramedics in the XYZ industrial city have the knowledge, skills, attitudes, training and preparedness that are in the "high category". Exogenous variables; knowledge, skills, attitudes and training explain 65.8% of the preparedness (endogenous variables). Continual commitment from paramedics and management is needed to maintain and enhance preparedness, knowledge, skills, attitudes and training in order to provide better medical emergency services. Keywords: PLS-SEM, MCI, preparedness, paramedics, industrial city.

Abstract

Ergonomics Program has been recommended by many studies as one of the main guidelines in equipping employees at work to prevent injuries and health problems. One of the main benefits gained from implementing the Ergonomics Program is that it reduces the risk of injury by adapting work that suit to human, not forcing human to adapt to work. Offices that are designed using ergonomic principles can improve performance and reduce workplace injuries such as musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This study aims to obtain strategies of Office Ergonomics Program Improvement to prevent risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) cases in XYZ Company Qatar. The research approach was conducted through qualitative descriptive using expert based approach (System of System Methodology - SoSM). The study began by analyzing data on MSDs cases and sick leave related to MSDs. The results of analysis are taken into consideration when collecting assumptions for office ergonomics program improvement and its level of importance and certainty. The method used is Strategic Assumption Surfacing and Testing (SAST). Prioritizing of strategic assumptions are determined using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The data obtained were analyzed using Software Expert Choice 11. The results of analysis showed that Policy and procedure had the greatest value with 0.256, while the work station was 0.219, health check-up 0.059, awareness program 0.087, regular exercise 0.202, training 0.088 and supervision / monitoring 0.089.
