Abstract

Dust particles are a collection of compounds in the form of solid or liquid which are scattered in the air with a very small diameter, less than 1 micron to a maximum of 500 microns. The size of dust particles that are harmful to health generally ranges from 0.1 microns to 10 microns. The dust particles will be in the air for a relatively long time in a hovering state. The work of crafting candle holders (iron candles), in the production process, allows for accidents and occupational diseases to arise from the stages of the manufacturing process. At the stage of the production process in the sanding room, a lot of dust is produced. There are workers in this section when working, some use masks and some do not. Even those who use masks are carried out infrequently, if by chance there is an inspection from the Regional Government or from the local Ministry of Manpower. The work environment is classified as hazardous to the health of the workers because dust particles can enter the body through the respiratory tract. A case control study has been conducted on 48 male and female workers at four iron candle craft companies in Tabanan district for 6 months, which is divided into 24 case groups and 24 control groups taken by cluster random sampling. The variables measured were the level of inhaled dust and the vital capacity of the workers' lungs. Analysis with the t-Paired test showed that there was a high causal relationship (significance) between the level of dust inhaled in the sanding work environment of the iron candle craft business in Tabanan district and the decrease in vital lung capacity of male and female workers.Keywords: Dust Content, Lung Vital Capacity.

Abstract

Abstract. Residential houses have forms and functions to protect humans from natural influences. A good house must meet several requirements such as; environmental planning, spatial planning, building planning and utilities. Traditional Balinese architecture basically combines two main human needs, namely "scale-niskala" (both inner and outer), which is based on Hindu religious philosophy starting from spatial planning, forms, materials and structures. Problems with the original "Bale Meten" such as: dust, stuffiness, smell, humidity 59-63%, lighting 10-60 lux. Due to the times, "Bale Meten" automatically changes to a new function, namely for studying and sleeping, so that many people make modifications to their "Bale Meten". This research was conducted in the Batuan Traditional Village, Sukawati District, Gianyar Regency, Bali, in 2022, with the aim of finding out whether the original "Bale Meten" and modified "Bale Meten" meet ergonomic requirements or not. The sample consists of 60 "Bale Meten", with variables including: lighting, temperature, humidity, air circulation (micro climate). This type of research is "descriptive exploratory" with an "analytical cross-sectional" design. Data collection was carried out by way of interviews, observation, and measurement, while data analysis was in the form of "descriptive and analytic". The results obtained stated that the comfort of the original "Bale Meten" and the modified "Bale Meten" did not meet the ergonomic requirements. Microclimate affects comfort, while windows and ventilation affect microclimate. The solution is to socialize to the community how to build houses that meet technical and ergonomic requirements, so that they become healthy and livable homes.
