Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Indonesian government have advised the use of cloth face masks by medical and non-medical personnel to prevent Covid-19 transmission. However, many people find it difficult to wear these masks when doing various activities outside their home. The cloth face masks used in Indonesian communities vary significantly in models, materials, and number of layers with a significant number providing discomfort to people. Therefore, this research aims to identify the factors that influence the comfort of cloth face mask model circulating in the public. Phenomenological research design through completed participant observation and open-ended interview with seven lecturers and three education personnel were used to obtain more in-depth data. The results showed that despite the availability of various models in circulation, none were comfortable to use while talking and breathing. On the other hand, their straps use a lot of materials causing pain in the earlobe. Therefore, people prefer irrespective disposable masks of their ability to pollute the environment when not properly disposed. In conclusion, it is necessary to have a homemade cloth face mask that provides comfort to people.

Abstract

One of the main occupations in fish auction facilities was transport worker. Manual handling activities are a leading cause of workplace injuries such as strains and back injuries. This study aims to analyze the association between ergonomic posture with muscle tension, lactic acid buildup, and work performance. This study was carried out in November 2020. The instruments in this study were portable electromyography, lactate analyzer, REBA Assessment sheet, and questionnaire. The analysis was performed with statistical test using Fisher Exact Test. This study is analytical survey research with cross-sectional study design with 51 respondents selected using convenience sampling method. Based on the data obtained, it was found that 36 respondents (70.59%) did not work ergonomically. The result of the analysis is that there is an association between ergonomic posture and muscle tension (p=0.000) and lactic acid buildup (p=0.002), but there is no association between ergonomic posture and work performance (p=0.761). It is necessary to improve the quality of fish auction facilities services by providing ergonomic transportation aids such as lifting trolleys and training related to the dangers of ergonomic risk factors at fish auction facilities.

Abstract

Pumpkin seeds contain a variety of useful nutrients, so they become a food supplement. This study aimed to evaluate the quality of pumpkin seed flour and capsules. This study used the experimental method. The pumpkin used came from a local market in Makassar City. Cleaned pumpkin seeds-then dried in the sun for ± 7 hours. After that, put them in the oven at a temperature of 70-75°C for 3 hours. Next, blended them until they became smooth flour and sieved through a 70 mesh sieve. Put the flour into a capsule shell size 00. The quality of pumpkin seed flour and capsules is tested at the Neutraseutical Laboratory and the Integrated Laboratory of Hasanuddin University. The evaluation of flour quality was carried out with 3 indicators which are the moisture content test, the incompressible density test, and the flow time test. Meanwhile, the evaluation of capsule quality was also carried out with 3 indicators, which are the time disintegration test, the weight diversity test, and the shelf-life test. Based on the evaluation of flour quality, pumpkin seed flour meet the required standards for the moisture content test (3.57%) and the incompressible density test (0.2427 g/cm3), but did not meet the required standards for the flow time test. Furthermore, pumpkin seed capsules meet the required standards for the three indicators tested, namely, the weight diversity (according to Pharmacopeia 1 edition 3), the time disintegration (6 minutes) and the shelf-life (115 days). Pumpkin seed flour and capsules can be used as food supplements because they meet the required standards to evaluate quality.

Abstract

The Balanced Scorecard is widely used in various institutions, including hospitals because it can measure performance in a comprehensive, coherent, balanced, and measurable manner. Performance measurement at Padang Panjang Public Hospital so far focused on the financial aspect. This study aims to measure the performance of Padang Panjang Public Hospital in achieving its target with the Balanced Scorecard method. There are 14 indicators of performance that are measured in this study, namely economic ratio, efficiency ratio, and effectiveness ratio that describe performance from a financial perspective; customer satisfaction, complaint handling, customer retention, and market share that describe performance from a customer perspective; BOR (Bed Occupancy Rate), ALOS (Average Length of Stay), Bed Turn Over (BTO), and Turn Over Interval (TOI) which describe performance on the internal business process perspective and employee turnover, employee training, and employee productivity which describe performance from a learning and growth perspective. This is a mixed-method study, whereby the quantitative phase is followed by the qualitative phase. Quantitative data was taken and processed from hospital documents in 2018 and 2019. Each performance indicator is assessed by comparing it with its target. Interviews were conducted to get an explanation of the results obtained. Five of the fourteen performance indicator measurements have not reached the target, namely efficiency ratio, effectiveness ratio, BOR, employee training, and employee productivity. To improve performance, the hospital can focus on employee performance which will affect other performance indicators by providing education, training as well as employee job satisfaction.
