Abstract

Introduction: Stress is a condition that must bepaid attention to by workers and employers, 87% of the workers from Europe claimed that they suffered from stress in the workplace. In 2015 around 28% of the workers reported suffering from work-related stress, with 33% clinical manifestations of fatigue, 19% sleep disturbances and 18% anxiety. Impacts that can affect workers can be absenteeism, presenteeism, etc. This study aims to investigate salivary cortisol examination to examine work-related stress using the evidence-based case report method. Methods: A literature review was conducted on November 23, 2020 through searches on the PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases to find all published observational studies evaluating the relationship between salivary cortisol and work-related stress. Results: After screening using inclusion criteria and reducing the duplication of articles, 5 articles were obtained. Conclusion: it can be concluded that the salivary cortisol test tool can be used as an additional objective examination in order to check stress conditions in workers, in addition to a subjective examination like a questionnaire or anamnesis on workers. It is used for a biomonitoring effect and susceptibility biomonitoring. This salivary cortisol test can also be used to help determine stress levels in workers in order to detect early occupational diseases associated with psychosocial hazards.Keywords: biomonitoring, salivary cortisol, work-related stress

Abstract

Introduction: One of the ways to control hazards with an engineering approach in an effort to reduce hazards due to chemical reactions in the laboratory is to install a ventilation system, especially in the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The research objectives of this study are to evaluate the implementation of the Local Exhaust Ventilation System in the AAS room. Method: This study used a descriptive observational method with a cross-sectional approach. It was carried out at the Testing Laboratory of the Technical Implementation Unit (henceforth-UPT) of Occupational Safety Surabaya. Data collection was carried out through direct observation in the field to determine the LEV system components and to measure the flow velocity in the inlet and outlet areas of the LEV system. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively by describing the situation systematically and factually. The data were then presented in the form of narration, tabulation, and figures. Results: The conditions of the Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV), in terms of the design, type and material of each component such as the hood, ducting system and pump machine as well as the fan, are already in accordance with the tool specifications and ASHRAE standards. However, the LEV system has not installed an air cleaner. The results of the measurement show that flow velocity in the LEV system has met the standard, which is 10 m/s with the danger of fume contaminants. In fact, its volumetric flow rate has decreased by more than 20%. Conclusion: laboratory management is advised to consider installing an air cleaner on the LEV system installed in the Hitachi AAS so that contaminants released in the air are cleaner and more environmentally friendly.Keywords: hazard control, laboratory, local exhaust ventilation, ventilation

Abstract

Introduction: The Bangladesh's Ready-Made Garment (RMG) sector is now the world's 3rd largest exporter. RMG provides a steady flow of employment for approximately 4,000,000 workers, the majority of whom are women. This remarkable progress, however, has been hampered by a lack of factory safety and industrial mishaps, which characterize health risks. Methods: With a population of 200 employees, this was a quantitative study. Interviews with informants were conducted using an interview guideline, and observations were carried out around the workplace using a checklist instrument. The information gathered was used to create a detailed picture of the scenario. This research aims to investigate health hazards of the garment industrial workers and their effects on workers’ health. Results: The majority of garment workers were between the ages of 15 – 20 years old. 93.6% of respondents worked for 8 - 9 hours each day on average, and 79.2% put in an extra 2-4 hours of work. 66% had no accident in the previous year, while 24.7 % experienced a small cut, abrasion, or injury. Moreover, most respondents were unconcerned about physical or environmental pollution, while 68% were concerned about noise pollution. Due to the direct link to health risks, employees suffered from headaches, general weakness, and eyestrain. Conclusion: Workers’ headaches and eyestrain were caused by an insufficient lighting and ventilation system and noise pollution. Backaches, joint pain, and chest pain were caused by long working hours and a dirty workplace. Industrial health hazards should be minimized by the proper implementation of labor laws by the government. Keywords: hazard, illness, ready-made garment, ready-made garment worker, safety
