Introduction Disability is one of the factors that can lead to social exclusion and poverty of individuals with hearing and speech impairment. This is due to the fact that individuals with disabilities are often underestimated, in terms of their work and social skills. The employment of people with disabilities represents a powerful mechanism for achieving full participation of the marginalized groups in all spheres of society. Methods The study included a total of 40 people with hearing and speech disabilities, out of which 16 individuals were employed at DES d.o.o. Sarajevo and 24 at SINKRO d.o.o. Sarajevo. A combination of three questionnaires was used for assessing daily activities and their impact on the quality of life (QoL) of the individuals with hearing and speech disabilities. Results In the total sample, there were 35% males and 65% females. Complete deafness was observed in the majority of participants (90%), while the rest had either moderate (7.5%) or mild (2.5%) hearing impairment. A higher number of participants used sign language as the means of communication, compared to manual alphabet. About 17.5% of the participants used a cochlear implant or a hearing aid. Most of the individuals lived with a spouse (70%), 20% lived with their parents, 7.5% lived independently, and 2.5% lived with a guardian. The majority of the participants who were married had a child (57.5%). The average Ferrans and Powers' Quality of Life Index (QLI) was 19.33, and the average value for total daily activities was 11.700 MET. The average value for the level of physical activity in males was M = 13716.5 and in females M = 10613.56 (p > 0.05). Conclusions Overall, we showed that daily activities have a positive effect on the QoL of working individuals with hearing and speech disabilities, i.e., the individuals who had a higher level of physical activity also had a higher QoL.

The incidence of HIV / AIDS is still high and is still described as an iceberg phenomenon. This condition forces PLWHA to always feel worried about their lives because they are threatened with death. The problems of PLWHA in Sumenep Regency are very complex, starting from the quality of life, stigma against PLWHA, transmission, treatment, to PLWHA, which until now have not been detected, coupled with the cultural atmosphere of the Madurese community, especially Sumenep Regency. This study aims to determine the factors that affect the quality of life of PLWHA undergoing ARV therapy. This type of research uses a survey design and is a quantitative study. The study population was all PLHIV patients who were actively using ARV therapy in Sumenep Regency, with a total sample of 56 respondents. Purposive sampling is used as a sampling technique. The independent variables in this study were socio-demographic factors (marital status, gender, age, education, occupation), medication adherence, duration of ARV therapy and stigma. The dependent variable is the quality of life. Chi-square test was used to test bivariate analysis and path analysis with the help of AMOS software was used to test multivariate analysis. The research location is in Sumenep Regency, namely in four Puskesmas which are used as ARV drinking facilities. In this study, it was found that the variable data that had the most influence on the quality of life was gender with a Nilai p of 0.055 which was smaller than α (0.1). The cross-tabulation analysis showed that female ODHA respondents had at least a good quality of life, namely only 14.3%. This is not surprising if this happens in Sumenep Regency, because from a cultural perspective, the Madurese are still very thick with their culture and local wisdom, where women are still in a subordinative position. Women with HIV / AIDS will be stigmatized and excluded from society.
