Abstract

The port sector faces high Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks due to the complexity of operations involving human interaction, heavy equipment, and massive logistics. This study aims to analyze the operational risk profile of fatalities, formulate guidelines for K3 leadership roles across job levels, integrate Visible Felt Leadership (VFL) and GROW coaching model, and develop an accountability system based on leading and lagging indicators to realize a generative safety culture towards Zero Fatality at PT Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero). This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with strategic analysis based on safety culture transformation. The Safety Maturity Ladder model, Corporate Life Saving Rules (CLSR), and leadership role division serve as the main framework for developing operational strategic guidelines. The results show that 80–85% of accidents in container terminals are caused by human error. The implementation of Visible Felt Leadership (VFL) and GROW coaching proved effective in changing the mindset of leaders and workers. Structured leadership role guidelines along with the integration of leading indicators into management KPIs are the key to creating a robust safety culture. This study concludes that present, firm, and empathetic leadership is the main foundation for realizing a generative safety culture in the port environment. Keywords: Accountability of Safety, Leadership K3, Safety culture, Safety Maturity Ladder, Visible Felt Leadership

Abstract

Complementary feeding (MP-ASI) frequency is a key indicator of child nutrition among children aged 6–23 months. This study aimed to analyze the influence of sociodemographic factors on the frequency of complementary feeding among children aged 6–23 months in East Java using data from the 2025 National Socioeconomic Survey (SUSENAS). This is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 1,386 children aged 6–23 months in East Java. The dependent variable was the frequency of complementary feeding in the past 24 hours, while independent variables included child age, child sex, maternal education, maternal employment status, number of children, household head education, household expenditure quintile, and place of residence. Analysis was performed using Poisson regression with robust error standard to accommodate complex survey design and correct for underdispersion (dispersion value = 0.36). Results showed that child age (β = 0.011; p < 0.001; IRR = 1.011) and number of children (β = −0.039; p = 0.020; IRR = 0.962) were the only significant predictors in the final model. Each additional month of child age increased complementary feeding frequency by 1.1%, while each additional child in the household decreased frequency by 3.8%. Other sociodemographic variables did not show significant influence. These findings highlight the importance of age-responsive feeding practices and targeted support for mothers with multiple children in East Java.

Abstract

Menstrual hygiene is a significant public health issue influenced by multiple factors, knowledge, attitudes, and the availability of facilities. This study sought to examine the association between knowledge, attitudes, facilities, and menstrual hygiene practices among female students at SMA Negeri 1 Kupang. A quantitative analytic approach with a cross-sectional design was employed, involving 649 students as the population. Eighty-four respondents were chosen through proportional stratified random sampling. Data gathering was performed using structured questionnaires and observation checklists, followed by analysis using univariate and bivariate methods. The Chi-square test at a 5% significance level was applied to assess relationships between variables. Results showed that 50.0% of respondents had good knowledge about menstrual hygiene, 59.5% exhibited positive attitudes, and 75.0% demonstrated appropriate menstrual hygiene practices. Statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between knowledge and menstrual hygiene practices (p < 0.001), as well as a significant association between attitudes and menstrual hygiene practices. Observations indicated that school facilities were moderately adequate, with six out of eight assessed indicators present. However, these facilities did not fully meet the standards required to optimally support menstrual hygiene management among students. Overall, the findings indicate that both knowledge and attitudes significantly influence menstrual hygiene practices among adolescent girls. While some facilities are available, their adequacy remains insufficient to fully facilitate proper menstrual hygiene. It is therefore recommended to strengthen reproductive health education programs to enhance students' knowledge and promote positive attitudes, alongside efforts to improve and optimize school facilities that support menstrual hygiene management.

Abstract

 Occupational accidents and work-related diseases in Indonesia continue to show significant numbers, with negligence in implementing Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) procedures, including the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), being one of the main causes. Data from the 2022 National OHS Profile of Indonesia indicates an increase in workplace accidents, resulting in significant losses for both workers and companies. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the factors associated with compliance with the use of PPE among employees at PT. TWBPK, a company engaged in the processing of cassava into tapioca flour. The study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional research design. A total of 98 respondents who met the study criteria were randomly selected from the employee population. The variables studied included age, education level, and OHS training as independent variables, and PPE compliance as the dependent variable. Data were collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis with Chi-Square tests. The results showed that age, education level, and OHS training were significantly associated with compliance with PPE usage. Older workers (≥35 years) were more compliant in using PPE, workers with higher education were more likely to adhere to PPE usage, and workers who had received OHS training showed higher compliance with PPE usage. The results of this study are expected to serve as a basis for PT. TWBPK to design more effective policies in improving workplace safety and preventing accidents due to negligence in using PPE.

Abstract

Stunting is a public health problem that impacts physical growth, cognitive development, and the quality of future human resources. Various factors are suspected to be associated with stunting, including socio-cultural factors, completeness of basic immunizations, and family socio-economic status. This study aims to analyze the relationship between socio-cultural factors, completeness of basic immunizations, and socio-economic status with stunting in toddlers aged 0–59 months in the Sikumana Community Health Center (Puskesmas) work area. This study used an observational analytical design with a case-control approach. The study sample consisted of 128 respondents, consisting of case and control groups. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the Chi-Square test at a 95% confidence level (α=0.05). The results showed that most mothers had no dietary restrictions during pregnancy (77.3%), most toddlers received complete basic immunizations, and most families had sufficient income. Bivariate analysis showed no association between cultural dietary restrictions and stunting (p=0.833; OR=1.093). There was a significant association between completeness of basic immunizations and stunting (p<0.001; OR=0.121), with toddlers with incomplete immunizations having a greater risk of stunting. Furthermore, there was no significant association between family income and stunting (p=0.480; OR=0.779). This study concluded that completeness of basic immunizations was associated with stunting, while cultural dietary restrictions and family income were not associated with stunting in toddlers aged 0–59 months in the Sikumana Community Health Center (Puskesmas) work area. Increasing coverage of complete basic immunizations is necessary to continue to prevent stunting.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major chronic disease among the elderly, influenced by modifiable lifestyle factors including sleep quality. Poor sleep quality in older adults is driven by age-related disruptions to circadian rhythms and melatonin production, worsened by chronic comorbidities. This literature review aimed to analyze the relationship between sleep quality and hypertension in the elderly. Articles were selected using the PRISMA flow diagram across three databases, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and PubMed with keywords related to sleep quality, hypertension, and the elderly. Methodological quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist for Analytical Cross-Sectional Studies, with articles scoring ≥5 included in the review. From 3,821 identified articles, seven met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed descriptively. All seven studies used a cross-sectional design and measured sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results consistently showed that poor sleep quality was significantly associated with hypertension in the elderly, with the proportion of poor sleepers ranging from 50% to 74%. Physiologically, disrupted sleep impairs nocturnal blood pressure dipping through sympathetic activation, elevated cortisol, and HPA axis dysregulation, mechanisms further amplified by age-related vascular changes. These findings indicate that sleep quality should be treated as a modifiable risk factor in hypertension management, and routine sleep screening should be integrated into cardiovascular risk assessment in elderly care.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major non-communicable disease and a public health concern because it often occurs without early symptoms but may cause serious complications such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, and kidney failure. Low public awareness regarding routine blood pressure screening contributes to the increasing risk of uncontrolled hypertension. This activity aimed to improve adults’ knowledge and awareness about the importance of hypertension screening and monitoring at Posyandu Desa Tengah.The study used an evaluation research design with the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) approach. The population included healthcare workers, hypertensive patients, and program documents, with data collected through interviews, observations, document reviews, and medical records. The instruments used were the MMAS-8 questionnaire and clinical measurement tools. Data were analyzed using quantitative, qualitative, and benchmarking methods.The results showed an increase in participants’ knowledge regarding hypertension risk factors, prevention, early detection, and the importance of regular blood pressure monitoring. Several participants who previously did not know their blood pressure status were identified as having elevated blood pressure and received education and recommendations for further medical follow-up. The program also increased community awareness of healthy lifestyle practices and regular blood pressure checks. In conclusion, hypertension screening and monitoring education at Posyandu Desa Tengah was effective in improving knowledge, awareness, and community participation in hypertension prevention and control. Continuous implementation of education and screening activities through collaboration among healthcare workers, health cadres, and families is recommended to support early detection and effective hypertension management.

Abstract

Obesity is becoming increasingly common among university students and may be influenced by frequent consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and a sedentary lifestyle. This narrative review explores the potential link between these two factors and weight gain in young adults, based on findings from recent studies. UPFs, typically high in calories, added sugars, and unhealthy fats, are often a regular part of students’ diets and contribute to poor overall nutritional quality. Meanwhile, prolonged sedentary behavior, such as extended screen time or studying, is associated with lower energy expenditure and increased body fat. These two habits may interact and further elevate the risk of obesity, although more evidence is needed to confirm a causal relationship. Moreover, academic stress, limited time for physical activity, and the easy accessibility of fast food may worsen the issue. Universities are therefore encouraged to support healthier behaviors through improved nutrition education and physical activity promotion. Helping students adopt better lifestyle choices could contribute to lowering obesity rates and improving their long-term health outcomes.
