Health status of workers are crucial to maintain their productivity and it will impact on output per capita. This systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition and health intervention in workplace setting and implication for further research. Articles were searched from PubMed, PMC, Cochrane Library (Trial), Science-direct, and Google scholar published from 2005-2020. Inclusion criteria was the intervention subject aged 19-64 years old with experimental randomized control trial (RCT) or non-RCT study design. Several keywords used for literature searching including “nutrition education in workplace”, “nutrition intervention in workplace”, and “workplace intervention”. Data were narratively described. Eleven studies were meet inclusion and exclusion criteria and further be reviewed. Five studies focused on intervene food environment in the workplace, four studies focused on nutrition education using different channels i.e., workplace visiting and emails, the other two interventions were objected to decrease health risk regarding occupational health. Positive outcomes were recorded for all workplace intervention, including increase in nutrition knowledge, self-efficacy, reduce risky behavior, and also improved body mass index and blood biomarkers. Workplace nutrition and health intervention proved to be an effective way to enhanced balanced nutrition behavior and improve health status. This study implies an urgency of nutrition and health intervention in a workplace.
The burning of limestone has effects against the labors such as pulmonary function disorders which are acute and chronic. The Pulmonary function disorders which are acute, for example respiratory tract irritation, increased production of mucus, respiratory tract constriction, loss of cilia and mucous membrane cells layer and breathing difficulties. This study was conducted to analyze the strong correlation among the characteristics of the respondent, the respondent habits, level of dust to pulmonary function disorders of the Labors at CV. SRI MULYA PUTRA Tuban. This study uses a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach. Samples were taken from the study population by 78 people who were previously given initial questionnaire and obtained 23 respondents based on inclusion criteria as the study sample. The independent variables were the characteristics of respondents such as age, sex, length of employment, length of employment, respiratory protective equipment usage habits and exercise habits. The prevalence of respiratory disorder in this study amounted to 13.00%. Test using analysis Contingency Coefficient. The duration of the work is a strong variable to cause pulmonary function disorder to the industrial workforce limestone. The conclusion is there is no strong correlation between the level of limestone dust with pulmonary function status on limestone labor, because the concentration of dust in the working environment is normal, under NAB predetermined. It is advisable to add a work shift, from 2 shifts recommended to be added into 3 shifts. Applying rotation system and providing better respiratory protective equipment.Keywords: limestone dust, pulmonary function status, limestone labor
An unsafe action is a problematic behavior by a worker that deviates from workplace safety protocols or is not in accordance with workplace risk procedures. Accidents (80–85%) are caused by omission labor who demonstrate low compliance to the occupational safety and health in the workplace.The purpose of this research is to analyze the correlations for two sets of parameters related to unsafe loading-unloading labor practices in PT Pelabuhan Indonesia III Cabang Tanjung Perak individual characteristic and occupational safety and health supervision. A quantitive study with a cross sectionalapproach was conducted. In this study, primary data were obtained from questionnaires and observations in the workplace. Secondary data were obtained from the documents available on the PT Pelabuhan Indonesia III Cabang Tanjung Perak. Study respondents consisted of the loading-unloading workers in PT Pelabuhan Indonesia III Cabang Tanjung Perak. Respondents were obtained from simple random sampling technique, and 59 respondents were enrolled. This study analyzed individual characteristics and occupational safety and health supervision. Data were analyzed by using the Pearson’s correlation coefficient pearson with a linear significance of 0.05. Study results indicated that unsafe labor actions by labor occurred in the medium and heavy categories. The Pearson’s correlation coefficient indicated that unsafe actions correlated with age and occupational safety and health supervision, while insignificant variables related to unsafe actions included working time and level of education. Training-associated occupational safety and health also required enhanced knowledge about workplace dangers and unsafe actions at work. Especially to labor loading unloading whose aged 31-40 years old and had elementary school.Keywords: unsafe action, individual characteristic, occupational safety and health supervision
Musculoskeletal disorders were occurred in any workers, one of them are informal sector worker such as home industry in Surabaya. Works were still done manually in home industry can cause Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Some of the causes of musculoskeletal disorders were work attitude. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between work attitude against musculoskeletal disorders. This research was an observational descriptive research with cross sectional design. Work attitude were measured using RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) The samples of this study were 20 workers who work in home industry. Data were analyzed using cross tabulation and correlation value Phi and Creamers V. The results showed that there were correlations between the work attitude with musculoskeletal disorders. Work attitude had a moderate correlation with correlation value 0.394.The conclusion of this study was work attitude had correlation with musculoskeletal disorders on home industry workers in Surabaya. High-risk work attitude can occur by poor work station condition. ABSTRAKKeluhan musculoskeletal dapat terjadi pada pekerja apa saja, salah satunya adalah pada pekerja sektor informal seperti pada home industri yang ada di Surabaya. Pekerjaan yang masih dilakukan secara manual pada home industri berisiko terhadap keluhan musculoskeletal. Beberapa penyebab terjadinya keluhan musculoskeletal yaitu karena faktor pekerjaan seperti beban kerja, sikap kerja dan stasiun kerja. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hubungan antara sikap kerja terhadap keluhan musculoskeletal. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional deskriptif dengan menggunakan pendekatan cross sectional. Cara penilaian sikap kerja menggunakan Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). Jumlah sampel pada penelitian ini adalah seluruh pekerja home industri sebanyak 20 orang. Analisis data yang digunakan adalah tabulasi silang dan nilai korelasi Phi and Creamers V. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tingkat korelasi antara sikap kerja dengan keluhan musculoskeletal. Sikap kerja memiliki korelasi sedang dengan nilai 0,394. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah sikap kerja memiliki hubungan dengan keluhan musculoskeletal pada pekerja home industri di Surabaya. Sikap kerja dengan risiko tinggi dapat terjadi karena kondisi stasiun kerja yang tidak baik.Kata kunci: home industry, keluhan musculoskeletal, sikap kerja
Social Security Employment Agency East Java also reported that deaths from occupational accidents were mostly in Gresik where 43 people died out of 310 who died in the entire region of East Java. According to Baker (2011), one of the causes of accidents is job stress. One cause of job stress is heavy work pressure. This study developed a problem focus coping model mechanism against environmental stressors to prevent unsafe work action in steel construction workers at production line. Design used in this study was cross sectional. Respondents studied were as many as 150 individuals who conducted unsafe action, mostly in moderate category, comprising 64 respondents (42.67%). Indicators of workplace stressors was in moderate category, in which managerial characteristic comprised 90 persons (60%) and interpersonal relationships of 100 persons (66.67%). Effect of coping mechanisms against unsafe action was highly significant with structural coefficient of-0.236. Problem focus coping mechanisms negatively affect unsafe action in respondents at production section of the steel construction, meaning that the higher the coping mechanism, the lower the unsafe action experienced by respondents at production section of the steel construction.
