Systems and actual practices of occupational safety and health risk management in the People’s Republic of China

Background: Risk management is a preventive effort for a company, especially those engaged in the service sector, which is very prone to errors and complaints. For this reason, it is necessary to map the risks that occur in accordance with the work unit in it which is expected to minimize the number of accidents or errors in both patients, visitors and employees in the hospital. In the 2019 patient safety incident report data at the Surabaya A. Yani Islamic Hospital, it was found that there were incidents which included near miss 93%, not injured 4%, unexpected events 3% and Sentinel 0%. The purpose of this study was to identify and identify the application of occupational safety and health risk management at the A. Yani Islamic Hospital in Surabaya. Methods: This thesis is a qualitative research with a case study method with the aim of fully describing the implementation of K3 risk management at Surabaya A. Yani Hospital based on observation, survey and documentation data on 37 units and hospital workplaces by identifying risks. , analyze and find risk control measures. Results: The results showed that the implementation of K3 risk management in the Islamic Hospital of Surabaya A. Yani based on the results of risk identification obtained as many as 25 risks in the graha building and the old building which were further analyzed by finding 15 moderate risks and 10 high risks. can be done is by repairing damaged infrastructure and improving the existing security system at the A. Yani Islamic Hospital in Surabaya. Conclusion: The conclusion in this study is the implementation of K3 risk management at the Islamic Hospital of Surabaya A. Yani based on the process of risk identification and risk analysis, there are 25 potential risks, of which there are 15 moderate risks and 10 high risks that can potentially cause accidents to employees, visitors and patients.

Introduction: Hospital as a health service institution for thecommunity is a workplace that has a high risk to the safety andhealth of hospital human resources, patients, patient companions,visitors, and hospital environment so that the hospital is obliged toimplement the Republic of Indonesia Ministerial Regulation No. 66of 2016 concerning Hospital Work Safety and Health Standards.Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine theImplementation of Occupational Safety and Health Standards at theJagakarsa Regional Hospital in 2019.Method: This type of research is qualitative using 5 informants.Result: From the results of research Jagakarsa Hospital hasimplemented the application of occupational safety and healthstandards of the hospital which include risk management, safetyand security, occupational health services, Management ofhazardous and toxic materials (B3) from aspects of occupationalsafety and health, fire prevention and control, management hospitalinfrastructure from aspects of occupational safety and health,management of medical equipment from aspects of occupationalsafety and health, preparedness to deal with emergencies ordisasters have been implemented well by Jagakarsa RegionalHospital but in reality there are still some elements that have notbeen carried out according to the Occupational Safety and HealthStandards diseases including risk management, fire control andprevention as well as hospital infrastructure.Conclution: Jagakarsa Regional Hospital should complement theshortcomings in the field so that it can realize the dream of thehospital becoming a favorite and perfect hospital

Human Odour

Odorants are released during the decomposition of organic waste at compost treatment plants. Composting releases volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), including alcohols, aldehydes, volatile fatty acids, ammonia and other nitrogen compounds, xenobiotic solvents, and various sulphur compounds into the environment as categorised by a compost odor wheel. Each odorant possesses a characteristic odour signature – quality and threshold as well as a toxicity value. This paper presents data relating the human odour detection limit to human health threshold criteria developed by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the United States Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 and the World Health Organisation. This comparison indicates that: (1) the human odour threshold concentrations (OTC) for most compost odorants are far lower than their respective human health risk (regulatory) threshold values, (2) several compost odorants have OTC that are below some of their respective regulatory thresholds and above others (i.e. dimethyl amine, formic acid acetone, ethyl benzene and toluene) and (3) only the VOCs probably present as contaminants in the raw composting material have OTC greater than all of its regulatory thresholds (i.e. benzene). Benzene is the most hazardous VOC associated with composting and should be monitored.
