Safety Climate merupakan persepsi bersama antara manajemen perusahaan dan pekerja dalam menangani masalah terkait dengan keselamatan kerja di dalam perusahaan. Safety Climate yang tinggi menggambarkan bahwa perusahaan sudah memiliki persepsi yang sama. Sedangkan Safety Climate yang rendah menggambarkan bahwa perusahaan masih memiliki persepsi yang berbeda. Dan perbedaan persepsi di dalam perusahaan menyebabkan terjadinya kecelakaan kerja. Karena kecelakaan kerja berawal dari perilaku tidak aman, dan perilaku tidak aman berawal dari persepsi kerja yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi keselamatan kerja di Perusahaan Perkebunan PT XYZ dimana setiap tahunnya masih terjadi kecelakaan kerja. Pengukuran ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode The Nordic Occupational Safety Climate Questionnaire (NOSACQ-50) yang terdiri dari 7 dimensi iklim kerja. Berdasarkan hasil uji Mann Whitney dan Kruskal Wallis dinyatakan tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan Safety Climate di kelompok jabatan, jenis kelamin, umur dan lama bekerja. Sedangkan pada kelompok pendidikan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan untuk dimensi pemberdayaan keselamatan kerja, sehingga perlu diberikan suatu usulan perbaikan iklim keselamatan untuk meningkatkan iklim keselamatan di perusahaan agar tidak terjadi lagi kecelakaan kerja di tahun beriktunya.The safety climate is a shared perception between company management and workers in dealing with safety-related issues within the company. A high level of safety reflects that companies already have the same perception. While the low work safety climate illustrates that companies still have different perceptions. And differences in perception within the company cause work accidents. Because work accidents stem from unsafe behavior, and unsafe behavior begins with different perceptions of work. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety of work at Factory Plant where every year there are work accidents. This measurement is done by using The Nordic Occupational Safety Climate Questionnaire (NOSACQ-50) which consists of 7 working climate dimensions Based on test results Mann Whitney and Kruskal Wallis stated there is no significant difference in work safety climate in the occupational group, sex, age and duration of work. While in the education group there is a significant difference for the dimension of the empowerment of work safety, so it needs to be given a suggestion of improvement of the safety climate to improve the safety climate in the company in order to avoid more work accidents in the next year.

Implementation of effective programs to improve occupational safety should be linked to an understanding of the specific nature of the given job. The aim of the research was to compare occupational groups with different job-related specificities: industrial production line workers, retail workers and mine rescuers, in terms of their assessment of the work safety climate. The survey covered 2,995 respondents with diversified demographic characteristics. The study used an abridged version of the Safety Climate Questionnaire by Znajmiecka-Sikora (2019) to assess 10 separate safety climate dimensions. The results of the MANOVA multivariate analysis, Wilks’ multivariate F-tests and univariate F tests prove that there is a statistically significant difference between the respondents representing the three occupational groups collectively in terms of global assessment of all work safety climate dimensions, and also indicate significant differences between workers belonging to the three occupational groups in terms of their assessment of the individual dimensions of the work safety climate, except the organization’s occupational health and safety management policy as well as technical facilities and ergonomics, which may be due to the universality of the requirements set for organizations with regard to these two aspects of safe behavior. The differences observed in the assessment of the remaining work safety climate dimensions induces one to promote more differentiated and individualized activities, taking into account the work specificity and the nature of the threats occurring in the respective working environment of the representatives of the different occupations. The difference in assessment of the work safety climate found in the research encourages one to create practical programs for safety, not only in the procedural and technical dimension, but also in the social and psychological one.

Background: Bariatric surgery has resulted in body weight loss, which claimed by surgery removal specific parts of the stomach with enzyme or sleeve gastrectomy. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine weight loss and endocrine changes by 12-week fundus resection and sleeve gastrectomy in rabbits. Methods: Twenty-one rabbits, weighing 2.5 - 3.5 kg, were divided into three groups (n = 7): sleeve gastrectomy, experimental fundus resection, and sham group. The weight of rabbits and total ghrelin and leptin levels in the plasma before and after surgery were measured in 12 weeks. Statistical analyses were performed using the Kruskal-Walis test for comparison of the means between the groups, and the difference after months in one group was assayed by Friedman test. Results: The results showed sleeve gastrectomy had a significant weight loss after one month when compared to fundus resection and sham-operated controls (P = 0.008). There was no significant difference in the ghrelin levels after these surgeries, but leptin levels decreased significantly after the fundectomy (P = 0.025). Conclusions: Sleeve gastrectomy is more efficient than the fundus resection in weight loss. It could be suggested as a new option in metabolic disorders due to the high level of leptin.

SUMMARYA serosurvey of 349 military working horses and 231 military working dogs was conducted in ten sites in Morocco in 2012. This survey revealed a high level of exposure of these animals to flaviviruses: seroprevalence rates of 60% in horses and of 62% in dogs were observed using a competitive West Nile virus (WNV) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA). Seroneutralization test results showed that the majority of cELISA-positive results were due to exposure to WNV. Further assays conducted in vaccinated horses with a DIVA (Differentiating Infected from Vaccinated Animals) test indicated that anti-WNV antibodies had been stimulated through WNV natural infection. Moreover, in both species, seroneutralization tests suggested an exposure to Usutu virus (USUV). Data analysis did not show any significant difference of cELISA seropositivity risk between horses and dogs. Dogs may thus represent an interesting alternative to equines for the serological surveillance of WNV or USUV circulation, especially in areas where equine vaccination precludes passive surveillance (based on the detection of West Nile fever cases) in horses.

Work safety can be a component of the broadly understood sustainable enterprise approach that goes beyond the idea of sustainable development. Sustainability in an unpredictable and turbulent environment has many constellations, many aspects and many fields of the enterprise’s activity and it complements the rationality of the business. The aim is to understand the sustainability of safety, because this is the term we have adopted for rationality in occupational safety management, in the context of the analysis of work accidents in the Polish steel industry, with particular emphasis on the methodology of forecast assessment in the studied area, proposed by us. The realized forecasts were used for the creation of a combined model which formed the basis for formulating conclusions from the analysis. The publication presents the modeling of the victims of work accidents in the steel sector in Poland. Based on the research of the forecasts obtained, a downward trend is recorded in the number of persons injured in accidents at work in the steel sector. In order to select the optimal model, it was proposed to set combined forecasts. In order to select the optimal model, it was proposed to set combined forecasts. The obtained values of ex-ante forecasts in the combined model also confirmed the forecasted trends determined within the adaptation models. The study is a proposal to extend the combined forecasting methods used to assess occupational safety. We consciously chose to include the methodology of combined forecasting of the number of people injured in accidents in the interpretation of sustainability, because we see the possibility of interpreting accident rates in sustainable business in the future. In the publication, we propose the framework of the sustainable safety model as an element of work safety management in an enterprise. We are trying to answer the question about the place of accident prediction in sustainable safety.

This study was conducted to determine the safety climate, the safety climate reflects workers' perceptions of the true value of safety in an organization - as a contributing factor to the reduction of accidents due to accidents. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of health and safety scores in the company. This study uses a descriptive analytical method with a total of 100 respondents (total respondents) with a variable measuring the level of work safety using a questionnaire published by the National Research Center for the Danish work environment, namely the Nordic Climate Safety Questionnaire 50 (NOSACQ-50) which contains 50 statements and has been completed. tested and translated in 40 languages, one of which is Indonesian. This research was conducted at PT. XYZ Balikpapan which starts in January until March 2021,. The results of this study indicate that there are 3 dimensions that have an average value below 3.30, namely the management safety empowerment dimension, management safety justice dimension and worker’s safety priority and risk non-acceptance dimension. Suggested improvements include making decisions and receiving advice and input from workers regarding work safety and being fair to workers regarding occupational safety and health for management and prioritizing work safety and not taking risks even though the work is busy and reducing risk-taking behavior that is dangerous for workers.

Abstract This research is about Application of 5R methods ((Ringkas, Rapi, Resik, Rawat, Rajin) and indentification of hazard potential in Chemical Warehouse. And it aims to improve the work environment in the laboratory by using the 5R work method and identify potential hazards contained. Analysis of the two problems was carried out using several methods, namely for the implementation of warehouse layout with the 5R method, and for work safety using hazard identification & risk assessment using Pareto Chart Analysis to discuss the level of work accident risk from the highest to the lowest, and proceed by using a Fishbone Chart Analysis to analyze the types of work accidents from the factors that cause the risk of accidents. The index value before the application of 5R has a value of 20%, while the index value after improvement is 75.6% and the result of hazard identification has 23 hazard risks from 7 activities with an area that has a very high level of hazard risk. Keywords: 5R, occupational safety, hazard identification, risk assessment, work accidents, Chemical Warehouse

Occupational safety in the construction industry still represents a relevant problem at a global level. In fact, the complexity of working activities in this sector requires a comprehensive approach that goes beyond normative compliance to guarantee safer working conditions. In particular, empirical research on the factors influencing the unsafe behavior of workers needs to be augmented. Thus, the relationship between human factors and safety management issues following a bottom-up approach was investigated. In particular, an easy-to-use procedure that can be used to better address workers’ safety needs augmenting the company’s safety climate and supporting safety management issues was developed. Such an approach, based on the assessment of human reliability factors, was verified in a real case study concerning the users of concrete mixer trucks. The results showed that the majority of human failures were action and retrieval errors, underlining the importance of theoretical and practical training programs as a means to improve safety behavior. In such a context, information and communication activities also resulted beneficially to augment the company’s safety climate. The proposed approach, despite its qualitative nature, allows a clearer understanding of workers’ perceptions of hazards and their risk-taking behavior, providing practical cues to monitor and improve the behavioral aspects of safety climate. Hence, these first results can contribute to augmenting safety knowledge in the construction industry, providing a basis for further investigations on the causalities related to human performances, which are considered a key element in the prevention of accidents.
