Abstract

Introduction: The construction industry is widely recognized as one of the sectors with significant mental health challenges. Many studies revealed that mental health problems such as depression, burnout, and sleep difficulty are more common in the construction industry compared to other industries. The causes may include high risk environment, long working hours, job insecurity, and machoism culture. On the other hand, the issue of mental health in the Indonesian construction sector is still not widely understood. Hence, this study investigates the key context-specific factors that influence the mental health of construction workers. Method: A mixed-method approach was employed, consisting of an integrative literature review (ILR) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The ILR identified twenty-three context-specific mental health factors, subsequently used as input in the questionnaire survey. The questionnaire consists of demographic characteristics and measurement of mental health factors using a six-point Likert scale. The survey was distributed to construction workers in Indonesia, each with a minimum of two years of work experience. The collected data were analyzed using EFA. Result: This study found five key groups of context-specific factors: workplace, work pressure, role, gender inequality, and psychosocial factors. These factors are found to be deeply interconnected, often exacerbating one another. The study underscores the complexity of mental health issues in this high-pressure, high-risk industry. The results suggest that addressing these challenges requires a multifaceted approach to better understand and alleviate the stress experienced by construction workers. Conclusion: This study presents five mental health determinants among construction workers in Indonesia. The findings can form the basis for further research and the formulation of work policies that are more responsive to local conditions.

Abstract

Introduction: Tinea unguium is a nail infection caused by dermatophytes, characterized by nail discoloration, thickening, and brittleness. Farmers, often exposed to prolonged wet conditions, are at higher risk of this infection. The use of appropriate footwear is recommended to mitigate this risk. However, inadequate personal protective equipment (PPE) usage makes farmers more susceptible to Tinea unguium. Research on Tinea unguium among farmers in Lojejer Village is limited, with differing result on the link between wearing footwear as PPE and the occurance of Tinea unguium. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the use of footwear as PPE and the incidence of Tinea unguium among farmers in Lojejer Village. Methods: This study uses a cross-sectional observational design. It involved 98 respondents determined using Slovin’s formula. Data were collected through interviews and nail samples, which were subjected to fungal culture on sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) medium and microscopic examination with lactophenol cotton blue staining. Fisher’s Exact tests were used for analysis. Results: Results revealed that seven farmers (7.14%) were affected by Tinea unguium, predominantly males (85.8%) aged 45–64 years (57.1%). Trichophyton rubrum was identified as the primary dermatophyte, with Aspergillus sp. as a contaminant. Statistical analysis showed no significant relationship between footwear usage, personal hygiene, or footwear hygiene and Tinea unguium (p-values > 0.05). Conclusion: The study found no significant association between footwear use, hpersonal hygiene, and footwear hygiene with Tinea unguium incidence among farmers in Lojejer Village

Abstract

Introduction: In recent decades, rapid urbanization has led to a surge in the number of automobiles on the roads, and consequently, an increase in petrol filling stations. In India, petrol stations are manually operated, and during fuel dispensing  workers are routinely exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and vehicular exhaust. As a result, petrol filling workers face substantial health risks, though their well-being often receives minimal attention. This study aims to assess the adverse effects of VOC exposure on pulmonary function and evaluate associated health risks. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 152 petrol filling workers and 100 control individuals. Spirometry and Peak Expiratory Flow rate tests were performed on both groups along with physical parameters. Respiratory symptoms were recorded via questionnaires. In addition, environmental analysis has been made for total VOCs, benzene, PM2.5 and PM10 and from this analysis carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk has been assessed. Results: Pulmonary function parameters were significantly lower in petrol filling workers than in controls. Odds ratios indicate increased risks of respiratory symptoms, including cough, phlegm, and chest tightness, correlated with years of exposure. Workers with over 20 years of exposure reported higher incidences of chronic cough (85%), chronic bronchitis (50%), and chest tightness (35%) compared to those with fewer years of exposure. Carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk assessments revealed elevated Lifetime Cancer Risk and Hazard Quotient values. Conclusion: Exposure to benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) in petrol and diesel may reduce lung function and elevate the risk of respiratory impairment, alongside heightened carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks.
