The content analysis revealed five categories: individual factors, project management, job characteristics, team dynamics, and stakeholders. The review emphasized that project management factors, such as organization, leadership, training,and procedure of working play a crucial role in minimizing the occurrence of unsafe behaviors. Additionally, individual factors emerged as the most significant risk factors of unsafe behaviour of workers including knowledge, perception, competency, psychology, and physical health. In conclusion, further research is needed to enhance the understanding of the relationship between theories of unsafe actions and empirical finding. Abstrak: Konstruksi dianggap sebagai pekerjaan berbahaya terutama karena sifat unik dari aktivitasnya yang biasa diamati di lapangan. Tinjauan ini bertujuan untuk menggali faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku tidak aman pada industri konstruksi. Investigasi melibatkan analisis hasil dari 16 studi sebelumnya yang relevan menggunakan prosedur analisis konten kualitatif, variabel, tema, dan faktor diekstraksi dari studi. Selain itu, semua penelitian menjalani proses peninjauan untuk mengevaluasi kekuatan bukti yang diberikan. Analisis isi mengungkapkan lima kategori utama: faktor individu, manajemen proyek, karakteristik pekerjaan, kelompok kerja dan stakeholder. Tinjauan ini menekankan bahwa faktor managemen proyek sangat penting seperti organisasi, kepemimpinan, pelatihan dan prosedur kerja berkontribusi untuk meminimalkan terjadinya perilaku tidak aman. Selain itu, faktor individu menjadi faktor risiko terbanyak menciptakan perilaku tidak aman dalam bekerja seperti pengetahuan, persepsi, kompetensi, psikologi dan kesehatan fisik.  Kesimpulannya, penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman tentang hubungan antara teori tindakan tidak aman dan temuan empiris.

Abstract

Abstract Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that has become a major public health problem because it increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases and premature death. Informal sector workers have diverse job characteristics with varying levels of activity and working conditions that may increase the risk of hypertension. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between several risk factors and the incidence of hypertension among informal sector workers in the working area of Darussalam Public Health Center in 2025. This study used a quantitative research design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of all informal sector workers in the working area of Darussalam Public Health Center, with a total sample of 60 respondents selected using the total sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and blood pressure measurements. Data analysis was conducted using univariate and bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square test at a 95% confidence level (Ethical approval number: 048/SP/UNPRI.FI.9.E/SPPKI.1/VIII/2025). The results showed that there was no significant relationship between family history (p=0.113), age (p=0.362), gender (p=0.957), salt consumption (p=0.282), caffeine consumption (p=0.297), physical activity (p=0.241), obesity (p=0.258), work stress (p=0.251), type of occupation (p=0.405), working duration (p=0.492), and income (p=0.100) with the incidence of hypertension. However, there was a significant relationship between length of employment and the incidence of hypertension (p=0.048). In conclusion, length of employment is a factor associated with the incidence of hypertension among informal sector workers. Therefore, preventive efforts are needed through proper work time management, increasing workers’ awareness to routinely check blood pressure, and adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors to reduce the risk of hypertension.
