Abstract

This study aims to identify hazards and assess occupational health and safety (OHS) risks in the animal feed production process using the HIRARC (Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control) method. The feed industry involves various operational stages that pose significant safety risks to workers, particularly due to exposure to dust, noise, chemicals, and physically demanding tasks. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, utilizing field observations and direct interviews with workers across different departments involved in the production line. The findings reveal a wide range of potential hazards at each stage of the feed manufacturing process. These include respiratory risks caused by airborne particles in confined spaces, noise exposure from machinery, musculoskeletal injuries due to repetitive and manual handling of heavy materials, and exposure to hazardous substances such as cleaning agents and chemical additives. Each identified hazard was assessed based on its likelihood of occurrence and severity of impact, resulting in a risk rating that was then used to prioritize necessary control measures. Risk mitigation strategies were proposed according to the hierarchy of controls, starting with elimination and substitution, followed by engineering controls such as improving ventilation and using noise-reducing equipment. Administrative controls like work rotation schedules, safety training, and the development of standard operating procedures were also emphasized. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended as a supplementary measure rather than a primary control. By systematically applying the HIRARC method, this study provides a comprehensive overview of occupational risks in the animal feed industry. The recommended interventions are expected to contribute to a safer working environment, reduce accident rates, and improve the overall well-being and productivity of workers in feed production facilities.

Abstract

Firefighters are required to possess excellent physical capacity given that their tasks have major implications for public safety. The volume and criticality of duties often lead firefighters to work more than 12 hours per day for 14 consecutive days. Unmanaged work fatigue can reduce performance and increase occupational safety and health risks. Factors that influence work fatigue include age and Working Period. The aging process, marked by an increase in age, leads to a decrease in work ability due to changes in the functions of body organs, the cardiovascular system, and the body’s hormonal system. Length of service refers to the period of time a person has been employed at a particular office, organization, or institution. A preliminary survey found that 47% of firefighters at the City X Fire and Rescue Agency (DAMKAR) felt moderately fatigued and 13% felt highly fatigued, based on the KAUPK2 instrument. This study aimed to determine factors associated with work fatigue among firefighters in City X. Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed, with data collected at a single point in time, in Mei 2025. The study subjects were firefighters employed by the City X Fire Department. Purposive sampling yielded 56 respondents. Worker Age, working period, and work fatigue were measured using questionnaires. Bivariate relationships among variables were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: The number of respondents categorized as “not fatigued” was 2, “moderately fatigued” was 21, and “highly fatigued” was 5. Bivariate chi-square analyses indicated significant associations between age and work fatigue, and between tenure and work fatigue (p<0.05). Age was significantly associated with fatigue (p=0.002). Working Period was significantly associated with fatigue (p=0.049). Conclusions: Age and tenure were associated with work fatigue (p<0.05). Future studies were suggested to examine additional factors beyond age and Working Period.

Abstract

Occupational psychological factors comprising interpersonal relationships, career development, role demands, and organizational climate play a pivotal role in shaping employee well-being and mitigating burnout in industrial settings. Burnout, characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment, poses substantial risks to productivity and mental health, particularly among textile manufacturing workers who often face high physical demands, repetitive tasks, long working hours, and strict production targets. This study examined the associations between key occupational psychological factors and burnout among 54 textile workers in a textile manufacturing company in Semarang, Indonesia. A cross-sectional design was employed, with data collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed through Chi-Square tests. Results revealed significant associations between all examined factors and burnout: interpersonal relationships (p = 0,000), career development (p = 0,000), role demands (p = 0,011), and organizational climate (p = 0,009). These findings highlight the critical importance of fostering supportive interpersonal relationships, transparent career development opportunities, balanced role expectations, and a positive organizational climate to prevent burnout and enhance occupational health and performance.
