“…The risk of health problems in waste pickers is caused by several hazard factors such as chemical, biological and ergonomic hazards. 5 Scavengers also face the risk of ergonomic hazards, such as back pain, muscle and joint injuries due to repetitive movements performed while working. Research by Thakur et.al 2018 shows that workers in end-processing sites are at risk of respiratory diseases, injuries and allergies.…”

Background: Blondo landfill serves as a final processing site for waste and also a source of livelihood for scavengers. Scavengers are workers who are at risk of musculoskeletal disoders (MSDs) complaints due to heavy, repetitive physical work and poor work postures due to bending. During waste collection and sorting, waste pickers perform repetitive movements with non-ergonomic postures, away from the ideal body position. Based on data from Puskesmas Bawen, 45% of 73 waste pickers experienced muscle and joint pain. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between working posture and complaints of musculoskeletal disorders.Methods: This study was an observational analytic research in a cross sectional design. The population in this study were Blondo landfill waste pickers. The subjects were 65 waste pickers who were chosen through purposive sampling technique. Data collection was conducted through interviews using the Nordic Body Map questionnaire, digital camera and REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) sheet. Data analysis were conducted using Spearman rank tests.Results: The results showed that of the 65 waste pickers, the majority were female (53.3%), aged > 35 years (93.8%), had a working period of more than 5 years (61.5%), and normal nutritional status (56.9%). Scavengers who have moderate risk work posture (81.5%) and moderate musculoskeletal disorders (84.6%). There was a positive correlation between working posture and MSDs with a moderate level (ρ=0.593; p=0.0001).Conclusion: Work postures that are formed away from the body's gravity which if done continuously and for a long period of time among waste pickers resulted in musculoskeletal disorders.

“…Dampak negatif yang ditimbulkan akibat timbunan sampah bagi kesehatan masyarakat adalah terjadinya penyakit seperti diare, typhoid, gangguan sistem pernafasan, dan lainnya. Menurut penelitian Singga (2014), yang dilakukan di TPA Alak Kota Kupang menemukan bahwa 98% pemulung TPA mengalami batuk-batuk karena terpapar gas hasil pembusukan sampah. Gejala lain dari masalah kesehatan yang umum yaitu lesu, sakit kepala, masalah pernapasan, bronkitis, mata berair, kulit sakit, dan kontak yang terlalu lama dengan gas dekomposisi dapat menyebabkan kematian.…”

Indonesia's population is increasing from year to year which has an impact on increasing the amount of waste and has a negative impact on public health and the environment. One of the proper waste handling methods is simple, practical, and efficient composting using the Takakura composting method. This study aims to determine the differences in stem height and number of leaves of tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum) between the control group and the treatment group with the addition of 4 bioactivators in Takakura compost. The research method uses an experimental design conducted in Banyuwangi during March-April 2022. Statistical analysis using T-test on data that is normally distributed and the Mann-Whitney test is used on data that is not normally distributed was carried out to determine differences in stem height and number of leaves of tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum). The results of this study showed that there was a difference (p value is 0.008 is less than 0.05) between the stem height of the tomato plants in the control and treatment groups with the addition of leachate activator compost, and there was no difference in the height of the tomato plants with the addition of EM4 bioactivator, BSF larvae, and drops. sugarcane. The results also showed no difference in the number of leaves from the addition of all bioactivators (EM4, BSF larvae, leachate, and molasses) in Takakura compost. It is recommended that further research be able to measure the C over N ratio during composting to determine the nutrient content in each activator during composting.Jumlah penduduk Indonesia semakin meningkat dari tahun ke tahun yang berdampak pada pertambahan jumlah sampah dan tentunya mengakibatkan dampak negatif terhadap kesehatan masyarakat serta lingkungan. Salah satu cara penanganan sampah yang tepat yakni pembuatan kompos sederhana, praktis, dan efisien dengan menggunakan metode komposting Takakura. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan tinggi batang dan jumlah daun tanaman tomat (Lycopersicum esculentum) antara kelompok kontrol dan kelompok perlakuan dengan penambahan 4 bioaktivator di dalam kompos Takakura. Metode penelitian menggunakan desain eksperimental yang dilakukan di Banyuwangi selama bulan Maret-April 2022. Analisis statistik menggunakan Uji T pada data yang berdistribusi normal dan Uji Mann Whitney digunakan pada data yang tidak berdistribusi normal dilakukan untuk mengetahui perbedaan tinggi batang dan jumlah daun tanaman tomat (Lycopersicum esculentum). Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya perbedaan (p value sama dengan 0.008 kurang dari 0.05) antara tinggi batang tanaman tomat pada kelompok kontrol maupun kelompok perlakuan dengan penambahan kompos aktivator air lindi, dan tidak ada perbedaan tinggi tanaman tomat pada penambahan bioaktivator EM4, larva BSF, dan tetes tebu. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan tidak adanya perbedaan jumlah daun dari penambahan semua bioaktivator (EM4, larva BSF, air lindi, dan tetes tebu) pada kompos Takakura. Penelitian selanjutnya disarankan dapat melakukan pengukuran C dibagi N rasio saat pengomposan untuk mengetahui kandungan hara di setiap aktivator pada saat pengomposan.

“…Bau busuk yang muncul di TPA merupakan hasil proses dekomposisi anaerobik dan aerobik sampah. Pembuangan sampah sistem open dumping di lokasi TPA menghasilkan gas hasil dekomposisi seperti gas hidrogen sulfida (H2S), gas metan (CH4), gas amoniak (NH3), sulfur dioksida (SO2), nitrogen dioksida (NO2) (Singga, 2014). Gas-gas yang dihasilkan dari proses dekomposisi sampah oleh aktivitas mikroorganisme bersifat racun bagi tubuh mahluk hidup.…”

“…Kelompok masyarakat yang rentan mengalami gangguan kesehatan dengan keberadaan TPA adalah pemulung karena pemulung merupakan populasi yang memiliki jarak paling dekat dan sering melakukan kontak langsung dengan sumber pencemar (Singga, 2014). Kondisi lingkungan kerja yang tidak sehat, kurangnya penggunaan APD dari bahaya fisik dan bahaya paparan debu dan gas beracun di lingkungan kerja pemulung menjadi pemicu peningkatan kejadian kecelakaan kerja dan timbulnya penyakit pernapasan pada pemulung.…”

Pendahuluan:Sistem open dumping merupakan salah satu cara pengelolaan sampah yang dapat mengakibatkan menurunnya kualitas udara seperti Nitrogen Dioksida (NO2), Sulfur Dioksida (SO2) dan berpotensi mengganggu kesehatan pemulung. Tujuan Penelitian: memberikan gambaran kadar SO2, kadar NO2, karakteristik individu, penggunaan masker dan keluhan sesak napas pemulung. Jenis penelitian: deskriptif kuantitatif. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan disajikan dalam bentuk persentase. Hasil penelitian: menunjukkan bahwa pengukuran kadar SO2 sebesar 230,70 μ gr/m3 dan kadar NO2 sebesar235,10 μ gr/m3. Kadar S02 dan NO2 masih memenuhi nilai baku mutu udara. Persentase keluhan sesak napas sebesar 60%. Kesimpulan: Semakin besar kadar SO2 dan NO2 persentase keluhan sesak napas juga meningkat.
