Abstract

Home and environmental sanitation are closely related to the incidence of infectious diseases, especially ARI (Taylor, 2002). Several things that can affect the incidence of ARI in toddlers are the physical condition of the house, cleanliness of the house, density of residents and air pollution in the house (Iswarini and Wahyu, 2006). This type of research is analytical survey research with a cross-sectional study approach. This research was conducted in the Batulappa Health Center Working Area, Batulappa District, Pinrang Regency for 1 (one) month, namely from October 11 to October 31, 2022 with a sample size of 95 respondents. The results of the study showed that there was a relationship between occupant density, building type, and house ventilation with the incidence of ARI in the working area of the Batulappa Health Center, Batulappa District, Pinrang Regency. Suggestions in this study It is hoped that all people, especially those in the Batulappa Health Center work area, will maintain personal and environmental hygiene and prevent children from coming into contact with ARI sufferers.

Abstract

Firefighting is a high-risk occupation that requires strict implementation of occupational safety measures, including the consistent use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Despite existing safety regulations, work accidents among firefighters remain a global concern. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between PPE use and the incidence of work accidents among firefighters at the Watang Sawitto Subdistrict Fire Station in Pinrang Regency. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design with total sampling, all 52 firefighters were included as respondents. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test to examine the correlation between PPE use and work accidents. The results showed a significant relationship (p = 0.001), indicating that incomplete PPE use increases the likelihood of occupational accidents. This finding highlights the importance of strengthening compliance with PPE standards and institutional safety management systems to reduce occupational risks among firefighters. The study contributes scientifically by providing empirical evidence on the role of PPE adherence in preventing workplace accidents in high-risk emergency service environments, and practically by offering insights for policy development and safety interventions within Indonesia’s occupational health and safety (K3) framework.
