Core Subject : Health, Science,
Asian Journal of Toxicology, Environmental, and Occupational Health (AJTEOH) is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes material on all aspects of public health science which concern to toxicology, environmental, and occupational relation. AJTEOH is a peer-review journal published by Institute for Advanced Science, Social, and Sustainable Future. The journal welcomes high-impact articles on emerging public health science that covers human toxicology, pesticide hazard, behavior relation to occupational health and safety, environmental health risk assessment, occupational stress, and mental health, waste management; water, air, and soil pollution. The journal has a major focus on Asia but articles from other countries are accepted provided that the implications for Asia’s countries are addressed. The journal is multidiscilinary and aims to publish methodologically sound research from any of the academic disciplines that constitute human toxicology, pesticide hazard, behavior relation to occupational health and safety, environmental health risk assessment, occupational stress, and mental health, waste management; water, air, and soil pollution

Abstract

Background: Presenteeism is the behavior of workers who are present to do their work when they experience health problems. Presenteeism behavior is quite worrying because it can harm the company and also worsen health. This research aims to determine the most dominant factors in the level of presenteeism at Institution X in 2023. Methods: The research used a cross-sectional study design and data was obtained directly by filling out a questionnaire (primary data). The research was conducted in November – December 2023 using a sample of 205 PPNPN employees at a Non-Ministerial Government Institution in Central Jakarta. Data analysis used the Chi-Square and Multiple Logistic Regression tests to achieve research objectives. Findings: Univariate analysis revealed that 59.5% of employees experienced high presenteeism, while 67.3% exhibited workaholic tendencies. After being controlled for job satisfaction, the analysis results show that workaholic ($P < 0.001$; POR = 3.703; 95% CI = 1.8–7.6) is the factor that dominates the level of presenteeism. Furthermore, the analysis confirmed that demographic characteristics (gender, age, education, and marital status) and job insecurity did not have a significant relationship with presenteeism levels ($P > 0.05$). Conclusion: The existence of presenteeism behavior can be a concern for institutions to create a good work environment so that the prevalence of presenteeism can decrease and employees maintain productivity without harming their health. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study identifies workaholism as the most dominant factor influencing presenteeism among non-ministerial government employees, highlighting the importance of addressing workplace culture in mitigating health-related productivity loss.

Abstract

Background: West Kalimantan Province ranks 15th in tuberculosis case notification rates and has the highest rate among the 34 provinces in Indonesia. One of the contributing factors to the incidence of tuberculosis is the poor behavior and attitudes of families. Therefore, family knowledge regarding the prevention of pulmonary tuberculosis transmission is important to be studied further. Methods: This study employed a quantitative research method using a cross-sectional approach. Data were collected through questionnaires. The sample consisted of the entire population included in the study, totaling 22 respondents. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analysis techniques. Findings: The study showed that most respondents had good knowledge about pulmonary tuberculosis. Furthermore, respondents demonstrated good preventive behaviors against tuberculosis transmission, which were influenced by their adequate knowledge. Conclusion: This study concludes that there is a significant relationship between family knowledge and preventive behaviors toward pulmonary tuberculosis transmission in the Infectious Disease Ward of Regional General Hospital. Novelty/Originality of this article: This research focuses on the family context in disease prevention and health promotion. In addition, the study uses the most recent data relevant to current public health needs, providing updated evidence that supports the continuity of tuberculosis prevention research.

Abstract

Background: Underground mining exposes workers to respirable dust, a known cause of various respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pneumoconiosis. Despite extensive research, significant gaps remain in understanding the global impact of dust exposure on miners' health. Method: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of dust exposure on respiratory health outcomes among underground miners, focusing on original research articles involving underground miners published between 2000 and 2025. Fifteen studies were included, evaluating outcomes such as lung function decline (FEV₁, FVC), COPD, and pneumoconiosis. Finding: The analysis revealed significant reductions in lung function (FEV₁) linked to dust exposure, with a pooled mean difference of -7.33 (95% CI: -9.93 to -4.72). However, the effect on FVC was minimal. Limitations in study design, including heterogeneous exposure measures and confounding factors, may influence the results. Concusion: Our results underscore the urgent need for enhanced dust control measures, better health surveillance, and stricter regulatory standards to protect miners’ respiratory health. Policymakers and mining companies should prioritize these measures to mitigate the significant health risks posed by dust exposure. Future research should explore the combined effects of dust and other occupational hazards and the long-term effectiveness of mitigation strategies. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides an updated meta-analysis encompassing research through 2025, offering a contemporary global perspective on dust-induced lung decline.
