Abstract

Background: Presenteeism is the presence of workers in the workplace without full working capacity due to health factors, but several studies also link it to organizational influence. The government staffing system in Indonesia has two types of work status (permanent and non-permanent) and policy changes related to increasing the use of Visual Display Terminal (VDT), will certainly affect worker presenteeism. This study was conducted to assess the risk factors presenteeism in workers using VDT in the Indonesian government office. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional observational study using a questionnaire method using the Stanford Presenteeism Scale (SPS-6) to assess presenteeism and its association with organizational and health risk factors in a multivariate manner. Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) at one of associated factor, was assessed using Indonesian version of CVS Questionnaire (CVSQ). Analysis of this study used SPSS version 26. Results: Of the 201 research subjects, 44.28% of presenteeism was found. but complaints of computer vision syndrome (Positive CVSQ score) were found in almost all of the study subjects (84.5%). Risk factors for employment status and position have a strong relationship with presenteeism (p <0.001). Temporary worker status has a 7.08x risk (aOR=7.08 95% CI = 3.1-15.8) of experiencing presenteeism. Whereas for workers with a presenteeism risk position of 3.45x (aOR=3.45 95% CI = 1.3-8.5). Conclusion: Most government workers who use VDT continue to work even though they have health problems in the form of complaints of computer vision syndrome. Non permanent status (aOR=7.08 95% CI = 3.1-15.8) and low position (aOR=3.45 95% CI = 1.3-8.5) are determinant factors for presenteeism.

Abstract

Introduction: Mother’s milk provides many benefits for babies. Breast milk is also one of the most complete and perfect foods for babies. Breast milk contains minerals, carbohydrates and fats in sufficient quantities to provide adequate nutrition for babies. Babies who are given breast milk can increase the baby’s resistance (immunity), thus preventing the baby from being attacked by infectious diseases such as diarrhea, pneumonia, measles and others. It is highly recommended to start giving breast milk as soon as the baby is born until the age of 4-6 months. Giving breast milk to babies can also prevent babies from stunting. Stunting is defined as the condition of children aged 0-59 months, where the height for age is below minus 2 standard deviations (<-2SD) from the WHO median standard.Methods: This studied obtained from four electronics journals, that obtained from google schoolar, CORE, and MKMI journal that published in Indonesian and English languages, between March 2018 untill January 2022. Only research and original studies are inclose experimental and observational methods, and secondary data.Results: Results of research obtained showed that according to the applicable regulations, breastfeeding and exclusive breastfeeding for working women is permitted and almost all workplaces allow female workers to carry out these activities. The importance of providing a breast milk room in a place of work will make it easier for working mothers to provide nutrition for their infant children. Breast milk is very important for these infant children.Conclusion: The importance of breastfeeding avoids malnutrition in babies and is protected by law so there are no prohibitions on preventing it.

Abstract

Introduction: An ergonomic mathematical model to compute safe weight lift was formed with the principle of strain energy to limit the risk of low back pain among construction employees in Nigeria. However, the mutual interaction effect of the selected factors has not yet been studied.Objective: To analyze the mutual interaction effect of compounded chosen factors including biomechanical factors (body weight, spinal shrinkage, spine length), physiological factors (age, gender), and psychophysical factors (surrounding temperature, lift frequency).Method: The data were collected using ZT-160 scale, tailor tape rule, fly-back timing, and RH/Temperature pen from fifty male manual construction workers selected using purposive sampling technique. The data were analyzed using Ms Excel and SPSS with multiple linear regression, regression curve estimate, and analysis of variance at an alpha level of 0.05.Result: The multiple linear regression investigation showed that the mutual interactions of the compounded masculine workers' factors were significant (p=0.00) and gave R²=0.94. The regression curve estimate predicted the existence of a quadratic relationship with the safe weight lift (p=0.00), and analysis of variance revealed that the selected factors were significant (p=0.00) with F-test=404.53.Conclusion: The mutual interactions of the selected factors were significant. Hence, it can be used for decision-making for the safety management of male laborers involved in load handling.
