Making wigs is a job that requires high accuracy and concentration. If done for a long time with a heavy workload, and work posturethat is not ergonomic can cause work fatigue and eyestrain on workers. The work environment in the form of lighting that does not meet the requirements also affects the health of the worker's eyes. Eyestrain occurs because workers try to see small objects at close range with a long duration of time, causing tension in the eye muscles. Eyestrain can affect the work health and safety of workers, so as to reduce work productivity. This study aims to determine the relationship between work postureand eyestrain, the relationship of workload with eyestrain and the relationship of lighting to eyestrain in wigs of PT. SCI Kupang City. This research is a descriptive analytic study with cross sectional design. The sample in this study were 48 workers at PT. Kupang City SCI taken using Simple Random Sampling technique with data analysis using Chi Square test. Work Attitude, Workload and Lighting in the study are independent variables, while eyestrain and work fatigue are the dependent variable. The results showed that there was a significant association between work posture and work fatigue (p = 0,000 <0,05) and eyestrain (p = 0,011 <0,05). Workload was also associated with work fatigue (p = 0,002 <0,05) but had no relationship with eyestrain (p = 0,201> 0,05). The result also found that lighting was significantly related to both work fatigue (p-value = 0,002 <0,05) and eyestrain (p-value = 0,004 <0,05). It is expected that workers work with an ergonomic work posture so that eyestrain can be reduced, utilizing rest time as optimal as possible so that the perceived eyestrain and work fatigue can be reduced. Workers need to work with ergonomic posture, workloads and lighting in order to reduce work fatigue and eyestrain, which may lead to an increase in productivity.
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new infectious disease that has become a pandemic in all countries including Indonesia. The disease COVID-19 can be prevented by implementing health protocols recommended by the government in a disciplined manner such as wearing masks, washing hands and maintaining distance. Fish traders are one of the groups that are at risk of transmitting and spreading COVID-19 because they meet face to face with many people and the implementation of health protocols is not optimal. The purpose of this study was to describe the level of knowledge and attitudes of fish traders regarding efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 in the Kasih Market, Kupang City. This type of research is descriptive with a quantitative approach. The study population was 35 fish traders and all of them were used as research subjects (total sampling). The data analysis used was univariate. The results showed that the majority of respondents had good knowledge about the prevention of COVID-19 (77.1%) and were positive about the dangers and ways of preventing COVID-19 (88.6%). Continuous education and disciplined enforcement of health protocols are needed to reduce the risk of transmitting COVID-19 in the community.
This study aims to find the relationship between neuroticism personality types and academic procrastination among ethnic Dawan students in South Central Timor Regency. This type of research is quantitative research. The population was students of the STKIP Soe with Dawan ethnicity who were taken based on predetermined criteria, while the sampling used was accidental sampling on 85 students Dawan ethnicity. Procrastination is a deliberate delay in an important task, done repeatedly on purpose and causes feelings of discomfort in a subjective way. Subjective cultural stereotypes to the East Timorese ethnic group, the people are anxious, jealous, believe in myths, and selfish. Such stereotypical traits can generally be observed in people with the neurotic personality type. Data were collected using a scale and processed and analyzed using the Pearson Product Moment correlation statistical test. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between the Neuroticism personality type and Academic Procrastination where the Pearson Coorelation value = 0.238 with a significance value of 0.029 (ƿ <0.05)
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is still a health problem. NTT is one of the provinces with the third highest number of DHF cases in Indonesia in 2019. Oesapa Village is the highest DHF distribution area in Kupang City, where there were 52 DHF cases in early 2019. The transmission of DHF cannot be separated from the presence of Aedes sp mosquitoes as vectors. The initial survey showed that all household in Oesapa sub-district still had a standard free larvae rate (<95%). The Ministry of Health launched the One Home One Jumantik movement to support the PSN 4M Plus acculturation program, which required the active role of the family, especially a housewife as an independent larva monitor. The general objective of this research is to find out the behavior of housewives as larva monitors at household. The research design used was Cross Sectional Study. Data were analyzed descriptively and presented in the form of narration, tables and figures. The results showed that housewives' knowledge in the prevention and control of dengue vector was classified as good category. Most housewives have a positive attitude in the prevention and control of dengue vector. Also the behavior of housewives in the efforts to prevent and control DHF vectors have been classified as good categories. The community is expected to continue to actively participate and continue to make efforts to control the vector of DHF by involving housewives as agents of change.
Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) are infectious diseases that cause one and better parts of the channel (alveolus) including the adnexal tissue, such as sinuses, ear cavities, and pleura. Environmental saturation is an activity aimed at improving and maintaining standard environmental condition fundamentals that affect humans. Improper home sanitation is associated with high health problems, such as acute respiratory infections. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the home environment with the incidence of ARI disease in Tuapukan Village, Kupang Timur Sub-district, Kupang District. This study uses an observational method with cross-sectional study design. The population of this study was 519 and the sample was 81. The bivariate analysis used Chi-Square statistical test with 95% significance level. The results shows that variables related to ARI occurrence were house wall (p=0,029), house ventilation (p=0,011), house lighting (p=0,003), occupancy density (p=0,021) and smoking habit (p=0.002). It is recommended that the societies should keep the cleanliness of the house so it will not be a place for the growth of germs; thus the societies are able to prevent ARI disease.
