Abstract

Background: One of the occupational health and safety problems that many manufacturing workers experience is unergonomic work positions, this can cause fatigue and several serious diseases, including Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSDs.) Objectives: To find out the description of work positions and MSD complaints felt by workers of Gresik Steel Industry, particularly in the area of magnetic flux leakage and rework. Methods: This study used an observational method and analysis was carried out using the Angle Meter application, Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), and the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire. Results: The assessment of work positions shows that 2 workers have a moderate risk level, 4 workers have a high risk level, and 2 workers have a very high risk level that requires immediate improvement. The results of observations show that the work activities that are often carried out by workers are squatting positions with a bent back and neck in a flexed position, which is an unergonomic position. A total of 87.5% of workers experienced moderate MSDs complaints, and 12.5% of workers experienced low-level MSDs complaints. Control efforts that have been made include the use of tools to lift products, setting working hours and breaks, and using personal protective equipment (PPE). Conclusion: Assessment of work positions in magnetic flux leakage and rework area workers has a high risk level that requires immediate corrective action, and MSDs complaints are felt by workers in the high category. The description of work positions can be used as a basic reference for companies to determine additional control efforts to reduce the risk of MSDs complaints among workers in the future.

Abstract

The oil and gas industry is an industry with a high risk of fire. This is because this industry involves several types of substances that cause pressure and have the potential to cause leaks and spills. Industry's inability to detect these conditions can cause fires. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the implementation of fire protection systems in the industry. This research was conducted using a checklist method for fulfilling requirements according to appropriate regulations. The results of this assessment show that the company has fulfilled regulations in accordance with each system with a percentage above 75%. Some suggestions that can be considered for improvement include replacing expired fire extinguishers so that they are ready for use, providing APAR signs or symbols at each location point, providing a cover or placing the fire extinguisher outside in a roofed area, equip each hydrant point with instructions for use, carry out hydrant maintenance regarding the completeness and cleanliness of the hydrant box, and update evacuation route signs that are no longer legible and cut trees or branches that cover the signs.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) referred to complaints affecting the muscles and bones, ranging from sprains to chronic disorders that carried a risk of disability. Proper ergonomic implementation supported workers' health, comfort, and productivity, while poor ergonomics could trigger complaints. Identifying work positions, processes, and layouts was necessary to prevent MSDs. This study analyzed the effect of Workplace Stretching Exercise (WSE) on MSDs complaints among building construction project workers in Malang Regency. This study employed a quantitative approach with a Quasi-Experimental design and the Pretest-Posttest Control Group method. The study results indicated differences in MSDs complaints before and after the WSE intervention, demonstrating the effectiveness of the intervention. Ordinal regression analysis showed that several factors had a significant effect on MSDs complaints, including age 17-25 years (ρ=0.016), age 26-35 years (ρ=0.004), very low work posture (ρ=0.006), low work posture (ρ=0.008), work duration (ρ=0.007), low workload (ρ=0.023), moderate workload (ρ=0.015), and the WSE intervention (ρ=0.020). These findings indicated that, in addition to individual and work-related factors, the implementation of WSE played a role in reducing MSDs complaints among building construction project workers in Malang Regency. The researchers recommended that workers maintain optimal body posture, apply safe lifting techniques, avoid prolonged static positions, and perform regular stretching exercises as a preventive measure against musculoskeletal injuries

Abstract

Up to the end of 2012, Social Security showed the occurence of 103.074 work accident cases. 91.21% of the accident casualties were recovered, 3.8% were disabled, 2.61% partially disabled, and the rest died (2.419 cases) and were totally-permanently disabled (37 cases), with the average of 282 work accident cases per day. Due to the increasingly tight corporate climate, the company tries to make production cost efficiency (cost of production). One solution that may be taken is by applying outsourcing system. With this system, the company may save expenses in funding human resources (HR) who work in the company concerned. If the aspects of the application of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) are not properly managed, the possibility of work accidents and environmental pollution that have a negative effect on the corporate image and the continuity of company product supply will increase. This may affect the company's loss, both material and corporate image. The role and responsibility of the safety officer is very influential on the achievement of zero accident, so many safety programs are developed, such as safety briefing and safety patrol, with the aim to improve the aspect of OSH. However, some employees have not complied with the provisions of OSH implementation in the company they work at.

Abstract

Highlights: 1. The focus of this study was on the underlying factors of fatigue among shipyard workers, an area that necessitates further research to attain ideal standards in occupational health and safety. 2. This study can provide companies with material to use when counseling workers on the importance of a healthy nutritional intake in preventing fatigue. Abstract Work fatigue remains a prevalent issue among workers in shipyards, leading to detrimental effects on physical well-being, including a decline in body resistance and productivity. The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between age, nutritional status, working period, physical workload, noise, and lighting with fatigue levels among hull construction workers. This observational study used a cross-sectional approach with a total population of 112 individuals working in the production line of the Warship Division of a shipbuilding company. The sample size in this study was determined using stratified random sampling, resulting in an assembly of 53 samples. Proportionate stratified random sampling was then employed to determine the sample size for each subgroup of the population. The research data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test (p<0.005). This study found a significant relationship between work fatigue and nutritional status (p=0.000), with a moderately positive relationship (r=0.511). Additionally, there was a significant relationship between work fatigue and physical workload (p=0.000), with a moderately positive relationship (r=0.531). Noise and work fatigue showed a significant relationship (p=0.010), with a weak positive relationship (r=0.353). Lighting and work fatigue showed a significant relationship as well (p=0.000), but with a moderately negative relationship (r=-0.524). On the other hand, work fatigue did not exhibit any significant relationship with age (p=0.129) or working period (p=0.651). This study establishes a relationship between work fatigue and numerous factors, including nutritional status, physical workload, noise, and lighting. However, age and working period are not related to work fatigue. Thus, it is recommended that companies align job requirements with employees' work capacity and conduct regular assessments of noise and lighting conditions to mitigate work-related fatigue.
