Introduction: Workload and work fatigue are problems that often arise in a hospital. The unbalanced workload of nurses can cause work fatigue in the nurse workforce. If nurses experience work fatigue, the work motivation of the nurses will decrease, performance is low, work quality is low, there are many mistakes, low work productivity, work-related stress, occupational diseases, injuries, and work accidents. This study aims to analyze the relationship between physical workload and mental workload with work fatigue on nurses in the Emergency Room at Haji General Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This study was an observational study with a cross sectional study design. Conducted in the Emergency Room Installation of Haji General Hospital Surabaya with a research population of 30 nurses. The sampling technique was total sampling. The independent variable in this study is physical workload and mental workload while the dependent variable in this study is work fatigue. Data collection using direct measurement instruments in the form of a Pulse Oxy Meter, NASA-TLX and IRFC questionnaires with statistical analysis using the contingency coefficient test and the Spearman correlation test. Results: This study shows that physical workload has a very weak relationship with work fatigue on nurses (correlation coefficient 0.198) while mental workload has a strong enough relationship with work fatigue in acne (correlation coefficient 0.535). Conclusion: it can be concluded that physical workload and mental workload have a relationship with work fatigue on nurses in the Emergency Department of the Haji General Hospital of Surabaya. Keywords: Fatigue, mental workload, physical workload

Introduction: Salesmen’s job is focused on promoting a product directly to consumers. Household appliances are one of the products that is often promoted by salesmen. While carrying out marketing activities, they will always be faced with various job factors that can cause job stress. This research was conducted to analyze the correlation between job stressors and job stress levels among salesmen. Method: This research was observational research with a cross-sectional approach. Both population and samples of this research were 30 salesmen of household appliance trading in Kediri City. The sampling technique used was total sampling. Variables used in this research were job stressor including role conflict, role ambiguity, interpersonal conflict, job uncertainty, total workload, and mental demands with job stress levels. Results: The results showed that most salesmen experienced job stressors either in high, moderate or low category. Most of the salesmen experienced normal job stress level. There is relationship between job stressors consisting of role conflict (0.673), role ambiguity (0.455), interpersonal conflict (0.262), job uncertainty (0.683), total workload (0.526) and mental demands (0.859) with job stress levels on salesmen. Conclusion: An increase in job stressor conditions experienced by salesmen will be followed by an increase in job stress levels, and vice versa. Out of all, mental demands have the strongest relationship to job stress levels on salesmen. So it is necessary to make efforts to suppress existing job stressors so that an increase of job stress levels on salesmen can be prevented.

Introduction: Burnout in employees is caused by individual factors, including demographic characteristics and locus of control. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between demographic characteristics and locus of control with burnout among employees at the head office of a pharmaceutical company in North Jakarta. Methods: This research was a correlational study with a cross-sectional design. The population in this research were permanent employees of the pharmaceutical company's head office in North Jakarta, amounting to 88 employees. The research sample was 47 employees, using the probability sampling method with the proportional stratified random sampling technique. The independent variables in this research were gender, age, education level, marital status, and locus of control. At the same time, the dependent variable in this research was burnout. Data collection used the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and Work Locus of Control (WLOC). The data in this study were analyzed by the Spearman Correlation test and the Cramer Correlation test. Results: Most of the employees were female, 26-35 years old, married, and have a college education level. Burnout was moderate in most of these employees. Demographic characteristics which had a relationship with burnout were age (p=0.012) and education level (p=0.014). Meanwhile, gender (p=0.373) and marital status (p=0.297) had no relationship with burnout. Locus of control and burnout also had a relationship (p=0.015). Conclusion: Gender and marital status had no relationship with employees burnout. However, age and education level had a relationship with employees burnout. There was also a relationship between locus of control and burnout.

Introduction: The disease outcome of musculoskeletal disorders includes; serious occupational disorders and disabilities that are associated with the loss of useful working days and socioeconomic burden to the individual, the organization, and society at large. The aim of this study is to determine the work-related musculoskeletal disorders and associated risk factors among sugar factory workers. Methods: The cross-sectional study design was employed in this study in the workplace among 402 workers between two sugar factories. The self-structured Standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal Disorders questionnaire was administered. Data were analysed into descriptive statistics, binary logistic, and multiple logistic regression using SPSS vs. 26. Results: The results indicate that the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders in the previous 12 months among sugar factory workers was 53%. The Lower back region has the highest prevalence of 52.2% and the lowest prevalence of 12.7% on Neck region. The following highlighted factors were significantly associated with the reporting of WRMSD among sugar factory workers during the last 12-months, such as; age of the respondents, educational status, work designation, monotonous task, standing for long periods, and time taken to carry out the task. Conclusions: Workers in sugar factories are constantly exposed to ergonomic hazards which predisposed them to WRMSD. If these situations are not prevented it might worsen the burden of WRMSDs among workers, result in cases of more absenteeism and low productivity.

Introduction:Work stress can occur in many professions, including nursing, which is inseparable from individual characteristics. Inpatient is one of the units at Ploso Regional Public Hospital, Jombang, which has time-consuming work that requires observation on an ongoing basis. This study aimed to understand the relationship between individual characteristics, such as age, gender, marital status, working period, and personality type, with the level of work stress experienced by the inpatient installation unit nurses at Ploso Regional Public Hospital, Jombang. Methods: Observational descriptive study was applied with a cross-sectional design. Age, gender, marital status, working period, and personality type were the independent variables used in this study, while the dependent variable was work stress. The sample used was the total accessible population of nurses in the inpatient unit with 33 respondents. The data collection method used was a general questionnaire for personal variables (age, gender, marital status, working period), Personality Type Questionnaire for personality type, and Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Questionnaire for work stress. Data were analyzed using chi-square correlation and spearman correlation test. Results: In the inpatient installation unit, most nurses were male between the ages of 24-37, had a working period of less than five years, were married, and had type A personality. The individual characteristics which had a moderate relationship with work stress were age (ρ = 0.419), marital status (ρ = 0.461), and working period (ρ = 0.359). Gender (ρ = 0.246) and personality type (ρ = 0.179) had a weak relationship with work stress. Conclusion: Age, marital status, and working period had a moderate relationship with work stress, while gender and personality type had a weak relationship.

Data were analyzed using chi-square correlation and spearman correlation test. Results: In the inpatient installation unit, most nurses were male between the ages of 24-37, had a working period of less than five years, were married, and had type A personality. The individual characteristics which had a moderate relationship with work stress were age (ρ = 0.419), marital status (ρ = 0.461), and working period (ρ = 0.359). Gender (ρ = 0.246) and personality type (ρ = 0.179) had a weak relationship with work stress. Conclusion: Age, marital status, and working period had a moderate relationship with work stress, while gender and personality type had a weak relationship.","PeriodicalId":33133,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Occupational Safety and Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46952795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction: Non-operational employees of the Terminal Jamrud Surabaya are faced with various work-related issues while performing their duties which can be stressful due to work demands, relationships with many parties, and workloads. This study analyzes the relationship between mental workload and work factors (role ambiguity, role conflict, job insecurity, and interpersonal conflict) with occupational stress for non-operational office employees at Terminal Jamrud Surabaya. Methods: This study was a descriptive observational study with a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique used in this study is total sampling. The sample for this study were all employees of the Terminal Jamrud Surabaya office, up to 30 people. Primary data were collected using a questionnaire to assess stress levels and work factors variables. The mental workload was measured using the NASA - Task Load Index questionnaire. Results: The employees mostly have a mental workload, role ambiguity, role conflict, and interpersonal conflict in the moderate category, while the majority of office employees have job insecurity at a low level. Meanwhile, the stress levels felt by employees were mainly in the moderate category. The strong relationship between mental workload with occupational stress is 0.634, while work factors with stress levels consist of role ambiguity (r=0.523), role conflict (r=0.468), job insecurity (r=0.075), and interpersonal conflict (r=0.445). Conclusion: Variables that have a strong relationship are mental workload variables with stress levels in non-operational office employees at Terminal Jamrud Surabaya, PT Pelabuhan Indonesia III.

Introduction: Musculoskeletal complaints are often caused by accidents and occupational diseases. High heels that are often used by women workers in various companies can cause abnormalities in the shape of the feet. The purpose of this study was to detect the effect of using high heels on the foot arch of female workers in Makassar. Methods: This is a quantitative research using a cross-sectional research design. The sample in this study was 30 female workers who use high heels in Makassar who were selected using a non-probability sampling method with purposive sampling type. The data are primary data obtained through the measurement of the medial longitudinal arch with grid paper measurement which was analyzed using the Meyer line and the wet footprint examination which was analyzed by the Clarke index. Furthermore, the measurement of musculoskeletal complaint was analyzed using Nordic body map. Results: From research conducted on 30 respondents, more than 50% of respondents have pes cavus. The results of data analysis also showed the effect of heel height on increasing the height of the medial longitudinal arch of the sample based on the correlation of heel height and Clarke index. Conclusion: It found that the measurement of the soles of the feet on grid paper with the Meyer line parameter was not directly related to musculoskeletal complaints, on the contrary the Clark index could be used as a specific parameter in detecting an increase in the median longitudinal arc in the form of pes cavus.
