Abstract

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is the most common neurological disorder of the hands due to the suppression or "squeezing" of the peripheral nerves through this tunnel with typical symptoms of pain, numbness and tingling in the wrist, thumb, index finger, middle finger and half of ring finger. Any use of the wrist causing narrowing of the carpal tunnel or increasing pressure within this confined space may result in CTS. In the construction sector, iron workers are daily workers who are tasked working on various ironing activities such as making columns. These workers are at risk of having CTS in their hands as a result of their job. The purpose of this research is to analyze the association between repetitive movement, wrist posture, work period and age with CTS incident on iron workers at apartment development by PT X. The type of this research is observational analytic research with cross sectional study approach. This research uses RULA to measure wrist posture, Phalen’s Test and BCTQ Questionnaires to find out and describe incidence of CTS. The population and sample in this study were 36 workers. Based on statistical test using Chi-Square, there was an association between repetitive motion with CTS (p value = 0,018), there was an association between wrist posture and CTS (p value = 0,006), there was no association between work period with CTS (p value = 0,688) and also there was no association between age and CTS (p value = 0,729) on ironworker who made columns. Some recommendation for company are to be able to educate workers working with a good posture and stretch their wrist after working. For workers, always keep the wrist in a neutral position more often, loosen the hand grip and reduce energy used when twisting wire and also stretching after work.

Abstract

Health care workers have a high risk of contaminating infectious diseases due to work time, especially when providing health services, impaled by contaminated needles from the blood of patients, exposed by blood splashes, body fluids, and secretions from patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between predisposing factors and reinforcing factors with the unsafe behavior among health workers in Public Health Center X in Semarang. The dependent variable in this research was unsafe behavior and the independent variable was predisposing factors including the perception of health care workers toward their work, the work attitude of health care workers toward their work, work motivation, and reinforcing factors including supervision of the head of public health center and occupational safety and health promotion. The type of this research was explanatory research with a cross-sectional design. The population in this study were 32 health care workers including medical personnel, nursing staff, and medical engineering personnel with total population sampling method. Data was collected using interview method guided by questionnaire. Statistical analysis was conducted by Rank Spearman test. The results showed that perception (sig = 0,022), attitude (sig = 0,022), work motivation (sig = 0,000), and supervision of the head of public health center (sig = 0,033) had relationship with unsafe behavior. While the occupational safety and health promotion (sig = 0.495) had no relationship with unsafe behavior. Public Health Center ought to have special data toward the incidence of occupational accidents, delivers occupational safety and health messages routinely in every one week, gives sign about the PPE that must be used in the workplace and how to use PPE properly, and also provides a sign that indicates the accident-prone areas such as a slippery floor.

Abstract

Manufactur is one of the industrial sectors that creates products. Higher competition within the sector causes many employers demand their worker to be more productive. Work process that runs manually sometimes causes musculoskeletal disorders to the workers, including Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors that are related to the incidence of CTS in Assembling workers at PT X Semarang City in 2018. This study was a quantitative observational analytic study with cross-sectional design. The independent variables of this study were age, length of work, Rheumatoid Arthritis, repetitive movement, and awkward posture of the worker’s wrist. The dependent variable of this study was the incidence of CTS among the workers. This study took all of the Assembling workers as a population, with the total sampling used as a sampling method. An interview using questionnaire, Tinel’s Sign, and Phalen’s Test were used to determine CTS among the workers. The data obtained were analyzed using chi square test to see the relationship between variables. The study results showed that 55,9% of the Assembling workers were suffered from CTS. The results of statistical tests stated that there were relationship between age (p = 0,001), length of work (p = 0,010), Rheumatoid Arthritis (p = 0,008), and repetitive movement (p = 0,042) with the incidence of CTS among the workers. While awkward posture of the wrist had no relationship with the incidence of CTS. PT X should conduct socialization to all workers regarding factors that can cause CTS and the impact it has.
