<![CDATA[Introduction: The growth of COVID-19 cases in Indonesia has continued to increase which might have the effect of reducing the productivity levels in the industrial sector. The Ministry of Manpower has called on every company to establish health protocols related to preventing the transmission of COVID-19 in the workplace. The purpose of this study was to describe the compliance with the existing health protocols at PT Albea Rigid Packaging Surabaya. Methods: The population in this study was the workers in the production section and the sample was selected using the simple random sampling technique. The variables in this study were physical distancing, hand-washing-with-soap behavior, temperature checking, sunbathing, and the usage of surgical masks, hand sanitizer, gloves, and face shields. The data collection was carried out using an observation form checklist. Result: PT Albea Rigid Packaging Surabaya has referenced the letter circulated by the Office of Manpower and Transmigration of East Java Province and Regulation of the Mayor of Surabaya No. 28 of 2020 concerning the Guidelines for the New Normal Order of COVID-19. The health protocols implemented at PT Albea Rigid Packaging Surabaya included the implementation of physical distancing, hand-washing-with-soap behavior, temperature checking, sunbathing, and the usage of surgical masks, hand sanitizer, gloves, and face shields.

<![CDATA[Introduction: Safety performance refers to an individual safety behavior that can be determined by two groups of factors, environmental and individual. Each company has its own safety performance program for its employees. The company's role in occupational health and safety is to create a positive organizational climate by implementing an occupational safety and health management system. This relates to the organization's commitment to prevent accidents and occupational diseases, and to improve the level of work productivity. This research aims to analyze the relationship between the Working Period, safety knowledge, and safety performance among the workforce of the LRT construction project. Method: This research used the quantitative research approach which emphasizes data in the form of numbers and processing by statistical methods. The research design was observational with a cross-sectional approach. The population of this research was 97 respondents who filled in the questionnaires. The independent variables were Working Period relationship and safety knowledge while the dependent variable was safety performance. Result: The results show that the Working Period has a negative relationship with safety performance. Safety knowledge has a positive relationship with safety performance. The individual characteristics of the Jabodebek LRT station construction project are based on a Working Period of < 1 year for 38 people. Conclusion: Working Period has a weak relationship with safety performance and has criteria which relate to negative relationships. However, the relationship between safety knowledge and safety performance has a positive and significant relationship because the broad knowledge of safety of the employees improves their safety performance.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Dry eye symptoms are the common ocular complaints that are found at the ophthalmologic outpatient services. This research’s main purposes were to study the risk factors associated with dry eye symptoms and to evaluate the severity of dry eye among Visual Display Terminal (VDT) users. Methods: This study was a descriptive observational study involving 104 VDT users in 3 branches of the Social Security Offices and the Bureau of Labor Protection and Welfare in Samutprakarn province, Thailand. The study instruments used were: (1) questionnaires associated with VDT use and dry eye symptoms that were evaluated by using the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) and (2) Lux meter for desk-brightness and the angle of gaze measurement during VDT use. Data were analyzed using a Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. Results: The results found that VDT users had severe dry eye symptoms, accounting for 51.9%, and experienced moderate and mild dry eye symptoms in the same number, which was 24.0%. In addition, dry eye symptoms were related to VDT use for 5-7 hours/day with statistically significant value. Other VDT use factors, including the desk-brightness or the angle of gaze during VDT use, were related to severe dry eye symptoms with no statistically significant difference. Conclusion: Based on the findings, VDT users should use VDT no more than 5 hours/day in order to reduce VDT-related dry eye symptoms. these factors were not statistically significant for the occurrence of severe dry eye symptoms.]]>

<![CDATA[Introduction: Existing measures of occupational stress often do not count an essential factor that determines the level of worker stress, which is psychosocial factors. The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric features of an adaptation of the Health and Safety Executive-Work Related Stress Scale (HSE-WRSS), a measure that includes psychosocial factors to measure work stress. Methods: Cronbach alpha was used to determine reliability and convergent validity, by correlating it with other instruments, namely the Employee Well Being (EWB) scale and the neuroticism scale as part of the Big Five Inventory (BFI). Questionnaires were distributed online via Google Forms, and data processing was performed using JASP 12. Results: Data on a total of 210 out of 239 employees were processed for reliability testing and item analysis. Meanwhile, data for 37 employees were processed to be tested for a convergent validity test. The dependability of each dimension was between 0.67-0.82. Meanwhile, item analysis revealed that 33 items had a good Crit value with a correlation between item-total >0.30, whereas 2 items had a bad Crit value with a correlation between item-total 0.30. Correlation analysis revealed a positive and substantial relationship between the HSE-WRSS and the EWB scale, and a negative and significant relationship between the HSE-WRSS and neuroticism. Conclusion: In general, the results of this investigation demonstrate that the HSE-WRSS measurement is trustworthy and valid in the Indonesian version.]]>
