摘要

印度尼西亚钢铁制造业的工人受到许多热应激风险因素的影响,从赤道气候到体力要求高的工作任务,可能导致与热有关的疾病和降低工人的生产力。因此,在X钢厂进行了一项研究,以评估其工人的热应激水平,确定相关因素的关联,并提供有意义的建议。方法:本研究采用描述性横断面方法评估工人的热风险水平及其与个人、职业和热应激症状的关系。采用在线调查问卷的方式收集一手数据,X钢厂提供WBGT监测数据作为辅助数据。结果:热应激危险等级评分范围为48 ~ 140 (M=89.8, SD=±31.0)。高危人群122人(75.8%)。与热应激风险类别有统计学显著关联的职业因素包括:工作区域、暴露时间、空气流动、热表面、密闭空间、服装因素和WBGT;而与热应激相关的症状包括头痛、疲劳、大量出汗、极度口渴和体温升高。个体因素与热应激风险类别之间不存在显著相关性,排除了其作为混杂因素的可能性,表明职业因素是主要变量。结论:应尽快实施改善饮用水供应和维护冷却系统等控制措施,防止工人热应激。

Assessment of Occupational Heat Stress in A Selected Indonesian Steel Mill
Introduction: Workers in the Indonesian steel manufacturing industry are subject to many heat stress risk factors, ranging from the equatorial climate to physically demanding work tasks which may result in heat- related illnesses and reduced worker productivity. Hence, a study was conducted at Steel Mill X to assess the level of heat stress among its workers, determine the association of related factors and to provide meaningful recommendations. Methods: This study uses a descriptive cross-sectional method to assess workers’ heat risk level and its association with individual, occupational and heat stress symptoms. An online questionnaire was used to collect primary data yet WBGT monitoring data were provided by Steel Mill X as secondary data. Results: The heat stress risk level score ranged from 48 to 140 (M=89.8, SD=±31.0). 122 workers were in the very high-risk category (75.8%). Occupational factors which had a statistically significant association with heat stress risk category includes: work area, length of exposure, air movement, hot surfaces, confined space, clothing factors and WBGT; while heat stress-related symptoms which were associated include headache, fatigue, profuse sweating, extreme thirst and increased body temperature. The absence of significant association between individual factors and heat stress risk category eliminates it as a confounding factor, suggesting occupational factors was the main variable. Conclusion: Control measures such as improving the supply of drinking water and maintenance of cooling systems should be implemented as soon as possible to prevent heat stress among workers.
