Substandard behavior and sub-standard conditions are both a direct cause of accidents and a major cause of mismanagement. At PT. Glow which is engaged in the field of covection, there is no real / clear K3 management system so that there are still workers who do not know about K3 safe behavior.This study uses the Antecedent Behavior Consequences method which aims to obtain an overview of the factors that influence K3 behavior using approaches, observations or data at once (point time approach) in the sewing section of PT. Light. The results of the bivariate research showed that there was no relationship between knowledge and K3 behavior (p value 0.208), there was a relationship between perception and K3 behavior (p value 0.005), there was no relationship between attitude and K3 behavior (p value (0.116), there was no relationship Between the level of education and K3 behavior (p value 0.245). It can be concluded that from the empathy variable studied about OSH behavior, only perceptions have a relationship or there is a difference in behavior with K3 behavior in the sewing section of PT.Glow. Should increase attention related to safety aspects. work so that work accidents continue in the years to come.Perilaku merupakan hasil kombinasi dari berbagai faktor, baik faktor internal maupun faktor eksternal. Faktor internal merupakan karakteristik bawaan yang dimiliki oleh seseorang, seperti kecerdasan, tingkat emosional, jenis kelamin, pengetahuan, sikap dan sebagainya. Sedangkan faktor eksternal merupakan lingkungan sekeliling yang dapat berupa lingkungan fisik, sosial, budaya, pendidikan, politik atau ekonomi Perilaku di bawah standar dan kondisi di bawah standar merupakan penyebab langsung suatu kecelakaan dan penyebab utama dari kesalahan manajemen. Di PT. Glow yang bergerak dibidang koveksi, belum ada sistem manajemen K3 yang nyata/jelas sehingga membuat para pekerja masih ada yang belum tahu tentang perilaku aman K3. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode Antecedent Behavior Consequences yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran dengan mempelajari mengenai faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku K3 menggunakan cara pendekatan, observasi atau pengumpulan data sekaligus pada suatu saat (point time approach) di bagian jahit PT. Glow. Sehingga menjadi upaya pencegahan kecelakaan kerja secara proaktif yang berfokus pada perilaku berbahaya yang berpeluang menyebabkan terjadinya kecelakaan dalam bekerja. Hasil dari penelitian bivariat didapatkan tidak ada hubungan antara pengetahuan dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,208) , ada hubungan antara persepsi dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,005), tidak ada hubungan antara sikap dengan perilaku K3 (p value (0,116), tidak ada hubungan antara tingkat pendidikan dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,245). Dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa dari empat variabel yang diteliti tentang hubungannya dengan perilaku K3, hanya persepsi yang mempunyai hubungan atau terdapat perbedaan bermakna dengan perilaku K3 di bagian jahit PT. Glow. Untuk itu, perusahaan harus meningkatkan perhatian terkait segi keselamatan kerja agar angka kecelakaan kerja dapat terus ditekan pada tahun-tahun yang akan datang. Perhatian ini dapat berupa perbaikan manajemen terkait kebijakan K3, serta membangun komitmen bersama seluruh karyawan dalam melaksanakan program K3.

Low lumbar pain is a very common condition that can benefit from kinetotherapy, which can be combined with specific medication and cognitive therapy. Depending on the pathophysiological mechanism of production, some physiotherapy exercises or techniques can be highlighted, because they have an increased efficiency in combating this type of pain. Thus, in the case of lower lumbar pain inherent to fibromyalgia, aerobic exercises appear to be more useful, and in the case of pain that accompany a herniated disc are recommended strenght exercises and lumbar stabilization. Lower lumbar pains due to work accidents are particularly beneficial for aerobic exercise if muscular contractions are present, and those with a sacroiliac joint dysfunction as an etiology can be alleviated by Mulligan mobilizations, Mulligan tapping and ultrasound; for those caused by spinal osteoarthritis are especially useful yoga and stretching exercises. Lower lumbar pain can also be caused by ankylosing spondylitis, in which case they can be improved by gymnastics, hydrotherapy, massage, leisure activities.

Abstract Purpose Accidents are more likely to occur during the morning hours of Mondays (Monday effect). This might be due to a higher level of cognitive failure on Monday morning at work. Methods In a pilot actigraphy study across one working week, we explored this Monday effect and regressed daily self-reported workplace cognitive failure on weekdays (Monday versus other days), background social stressors at work, delayed sleep onset and sleep duration. Diary data were gathered from 40 full-time employees. Results Confirming our assumptions, results revealed work-related cognitive failure and sleep-onset latency on the previous night to be higher on Mondays compared to other workdays. Work-related cognitive failure correlated positively with delayed sleep-onset latency and background social stressors. In multilevel regression analysis, Monday significantly explained variations in workplace cognitive failure. The addition of background social stressors at work and sleep-onset latency to the regression model showed unique contributions to the prediction of workplace cognitive failure. No significant two-way or three-way interactions between working days, sleep-onset latency or sleep duration, and background social stressors were found. Conclusion Peak levels of cognitive failure on Monday morning and the association of cognitive failure with social stressors at work contribute to understanding the mechanisms involved in the increased prevalence of occupational accidents on Monday morning. Occupational safety interventions should address both social stressors at work and individual sleep hygiene.
