Abstract

Background: Subjective fatigue was a condition of a person's inability to carry out activities. Hot working climate, nutritional status and workload were several factors that cause work fatigue. The tofu industry was one of the household businesses operating in the informal sector. Workers needed high heat to produce tofu and lifting or carrying buckets is done traditionally. If it was supported by a lack of nutritional intake or the presence of workers with obese nutritional status, it can have an impact on work fatigue. The aim of this research was to determine the relationship between hot working climate, nutritional status and workload with complaints of subjective fatigue in tofu factory workers in Become Hamlet, Bantul Regency. Method: This research was a quantitative research with cross sectional approach. The research sample included workers in Hamlet, Massachusetts Regency as many as 97 workers. The sampling technique was total sampling. The research instrument was a Subjective Self Rating Test (SSRT) questionnaire, Wet Bulb Temperature Index results form, nutritional status assessment sheet, Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT), body weight scales and microtoise. Data analysis used the chi-square test and the alternative fisher exact test. Results: The results of statistical tests showed that there is no relationship between a hot working climate and complaints of subjective fatigue (p=1,000), there is no relationship between nutritional status and complaints of subjective fatigue (p=0.481), and there is no relationship between workload and complaints of subjective fatigue (p=0.787). Conclusion: There is no relationship between hot working climate, nutritional status and workload with subjective work fatigue in tofu factory workers in Become Hamlet, Bantul Regency

Abstract

Background : Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) describe disorders of the musculoskeletal system that arise from exposure to static position pressure that is repeated over a long period of time. This condition often causes complaints in the joints, ligaments, and tendons, a condition that is commonly experienced by workers who harvest oil palm fruit. The purpose of this study was to identify the determination of risk factors (work posture, work duration, age, physical fitness, work period and body mass index (BMI)) for the occurrence of musculoskeletal disorders in oil palm fruit harvesters in Batu Jong-Jong Village. Methods: This study applies a cross-sectional design with the use of primary data as the main source. A total of 68 oil palm harvesters were selected as respondents through a Stratified Sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire distributed to respondents, as well as the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Nordic Body Map (NBM) assessment methods. The data obtained were then analyzed using the Chi-Square statistical test. Results: The results of the study showed that there was a relationship between work posture (p-value 0.003 and PR 2.172), age (p-value 0.000 and PR 3.095), physical fitness (p-value 0.009 and PR 2.160), length of service (p-value 0.009 and PR 2.160) with the incidence of musculoskeletal disorders. While there was no relationship between the duration of work (p-value 0.287 and PR 1.290) and body mass index (BMI) (p-value 0.936 and PR 1.076) with the incidence of musculoskeletal disorders. Conclusion: It can be concluded that there is a relationship between work posture, age, length of service and physical fitness with the incidence of musculoskeletal disorders in oil palm fruit harvesters.

Abstract

Background: Fatigue is a physical and mental condition that can reduce the ability to work and weaken the body's resistance during activities. The job as a driver demands high concentration because it requires quick and precise coordination between the brain, hands, feet, and eyes, making it susceptible to fatigue. Continuous fatigue not only has an impact on decreased performance, but also increases the risk of work accidents and endangers the safety of passengers and drivers themselves. Based on this, this study aims to determine the relationship between age, working period, and duration of work and work fatigue in online taxi drivers in Yogyakarta City, so that the results are expected to be considered in efforts to prevent and manage the risk of work fatigue in the online transportation sector. Methods: This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The sample studied consisted of 54 online taxi drivers  taken from three online taxi driver associations. The sampling technique used is stratified random sampling. A tool for collecting data is in the form of IFRC questionnaires. Data analysis was carried out using the Pearson correlation test. This requires that the data meet the normal distribution assumptions. If this assumption is not met, an alternative Spearman Rank test is used. Results: Age was not significantly related to the fatigue of online taxi drivers in Yogyakarta (p=0.881>0.05). In contrast, working time (p=0.002<0.05) and duration of work (p<0.001<0.05) showed a significant relationship with work fatigue. Conclusion: There is a significant association between working time and duration of work with fatigue levels, however, no significant association was found between age and work fatigue in online taxi drivers  in the city of Yogyakarta.

Abstract

Background: Advances in information and communication technology have led to increased use of digital devices in various work sectors, particularly in office environments. Prolonged use of digital devices can cause eye strain or asthenopia. In Indonesia, the prevalence of blindness is recorded at 0,5%, and vision impairment ranks fifth among the most commonly reported occupational health complaints. This study aims to identify factors associated with eye strain complaints among employees in Division Y of PT X.  Method: This study employs a quantitative approach using a cross-sectional study design. The study subjects were determined using total sampling, with 81 respondents. Respondent characteristics were collected using a questionnaire, lighting intensity scores were measured using a lux meter, and the Visual Fatigue Index (VFI) questionnaire was used to assess respondents' eye strain complaints. Data analysis was performed using univariate and bivariate analysis. Results: Statistical tests showed that age was associated with eye strain complaints with a p-value of 0,012. There was an association between gender and eye strain complaints with a p-value of 0,003. There was an association between computer/laptop screen time duration and eye strain complaints with a p-value of 0,010. The duration of screen time for smartphone use was associated with eye strain complaints, with a p-value of 0,047. Lighting intensity was associated with eye strain complaints, with a p-value of 0,000. However, job tenure was not associated with eye strain complaints, with a p-value of 0,513. Conclusion: Eye strain complaints in Division Y of PT X are associated with respondent characteristics (age and gender), as well as with screen time duration and lighting intensity. However, there is no association between work duration and eye strain complaints in Division Y of PT X.

Abstract

Background: Traffic accidents remain one of the leading causes of death in Indonesia, especially in public transportation sectors such as buses. Human error, influenced by a lack of knowledge and awareness regarding Occupational Safety and Health (OSH), plays a major role. Preventive efforts such as OSH promotion using engaging and educational video media are needed to reduce accident rates and increase driver safety. Method: This study employed a quasi-experimental method using a nonequivalent control group design. The population consisted of 63 bus drivers from Perum DAMRI Yogyakarta, divided into an experimental group (31) and a control group (32). The research instrument used structured pretest and posttest questionnaires to assess knowledge and attitude. Data were analyzed using Paired Sample t-Test and Independent t-Test. Results: The results showed a significant improvement in the knowledge and attitudes of the experimental group after the intervention. The Paired Sample t-Test indicated a significant increase in knowledge (p=0.000) and attitude (p=0.000). Furthermore, the Independent t-Test showed significant differences between the experimental and control groups in both knowledge (p=0.001) and attitude (p=0.002). Conclusion: The educational video on bus driving safety had a significant positive impact on improving the OSH behavioral domain, specifically knowledge and attitudes, among Perum DAMRI drivers in Yogyakarta. This media can serve as an effective tool for safety promotion and accident prevention in the transportation sector.
