Analysis of production capacity planning to meet the consumer request using the Rough Cut Capacity Planning (RCCP) method in PT. Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar, Indonesia

Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar company is one of a manufacturing company engaged in the production of light brick AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete). PT. Maccon Generasi Mandiri Makassar has a production capacity of 15024 〖 m〗^3 in a month or 180288 〖 m〗^3 in a year. However, with this capacity, the company is often unable to meet high consumer demand of 181450 〖 m〗^3 in a year due to less than optimal engine performance, a number of hours of work and an unbalanced workforce in the producing light brick of ACC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete). This requires the company to plan the optimal production of capacity in order to fulfill the consumer demand in a timely and appropriate amount so that the expected of company profits will be increased. The purpose of this research is to plan production capacity in the future based on the demand rate of the consumer using the Rough Cut Capacity Planning (RCCP) with the method is Bill of Labor Approach (BOLA) technique. Based on the data processing which has been done, the recommended made were a combination of engine additions and working time. This is realized to fulfill the lack of production capacity. For the January Period = 19872 hours/month, February = 19008 hours/month, March = 19872 hours/month, April = 19008 hours/month, May = 18144 hours/month, June = 18144 hours/month, July = 19872 hour/month, August = 18144 hours/month, September = 17280 hours/month, October = 18144 hours/month, November = 18144 hours/month, December = 17280 hours/month.

Sharing intermediate datasets from systematic reviews

Thousands of systematic reviews are published every year. To conduct a systematic review,researchers spend hours of work extracting data from and about the individual papers that areincluded. This step often leads to the production of spreadsheets with structured data andmetadata about scientific publications, which are the basis for later steps in the project. Thesedatasets will often remain hidden in local folders and unavailable, despite the time invested inproducing them and their potential value. We argue that this is a great opportunity, where asmall amount of additional planning to make these intermediate datasets publicly available canbe valuable to the scientific community, while also allowing authors to be cited and recognized.

Expressing and Interpreting

Proclamations of the great emotional power of music are etched deep into artistic culture. During great performances, the emotions seem to flow directly from the hearts of musicians. Listeners are not, of course, privy to the hours of work and shaping that performers can devote in preparation. Research has shown that expressive musicians craft the details of sound parameters—timing, loudness, timbre, pitch—to make their music sound alive and human. This chapter shares insights afforded by psychological research on musical expression that can directly assist performing musicians. It explains that the expressive features applied by performers originate from several basic sources related to the structural characteristics of the music they are performing and to their own humanness. The artistic enterprise of interpretation is explained as the selection and combination of expressive ideas applied across an entire piece of music. Musical communication is successfully accomplished when performers—usually through explicit planning and artistic decision-making—stimulate listeners to experience emotions or feelings that match the musicians’ intentions.

A STUDY OF THE INCOME OF STREET VENDORS IN WARD G IN MUMBAI CITY

The purpose of this study is to find out the level of income per day earned by street vendors in Ward G in Mumbai City. Income per day of street vendors is the dependent variable. The age, number of hours of work and number of years since migration to Mumbai City are independent variables. The researcher used structured questionnaire to find out age, number of hours of work, number of years since migration to Mumbai City and income per day. The researcher found out that there exists no significant difference in income between the street vendors of different age groups. But there exists a significant difference in income between the street vendors working for different number of hours in a day and street vendors who have migrated to Mumbai for different number of years.

An Integrated Framework of Leadership for Healthcare Organizations to Navigate Through COVID-19 Crisis

COVID-19 crisis has strained healthcare systems immensely creating a multi-front challenge to overcome. Healthcare leaders face stressful situations like long arduous hours of work, isolation from their loved ones, immense mental health issues along with fighting false narratives and campaigns by social media. Hence, there is a dire need for leaders to embrace this uncertainty and evolve by adopting a strategic shift in their mindset. To propose an effective functional leadership model of practice during crisis, author has undertaken a qualitative approach to understand the various literature published on crisis management, reviewed the literature on healthcare leadership, contextualized the papers about unique challenges posed by a crisis like COVID-19, and utilize the learnings to design an integrated framework for healthcare organizations to be applied during a crisis. Author presents a systems-based view of leadership challenges in healthcare organizations during a crisis and proposes a unique framework of 3A- Acknowledge, Activate, and Agility which could serve a comprehensive tool of strategic leadership for healthcare leaders to adopt during a crisis. When healthcare organizations adopt the principles embedded within 3A model elements, it would help them realize better patient outcomes, develop compassionate organizational culture, and enhance professional satisfaction within their teams.

The Effect of Conflict on Healthcare Workers in Syria: Results of a Qualitative Survey

The purpose of this study is to understand how the conflict in Syria, having devasted the healthcare system, has affected Syrian healthcare workers (Joseph et al. 2016). We provide a secondary analysis of a summer 2019 survey Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) conducted with 82 Syrian healthcare workers living in neighbouring countries as well as in northeast and northwest Syria. Our descriptive analysis found that 48 participants reported an average of 16.52 hours of work per day, and 40 participants reported caring for an average of 43 patients per day while working in Syria during the conflict. Sixty-eight participants reported facing barriers to perform their work, and 59 participants reported facing risks as a medical professional. Seventy-one participants experienced traumatic events during their work as a medical professional, and 70 participants experienced stress in the month prior to being interviewed. This analysis illustrates the negative effect an armed conflict has on healthcare workers through disruptions in their workload, training and resources, barriers and risks faced, and mental health and security issues. The study indicates that these factors require long-term consideration in order to protect healthcare workers and improve the health system.

Ensuring That Fatigue is Managed in Oil and Gas Operations

As in any shiftworking industry, fatigue poses a hazard to workers within the oil and gas industry, irrespective of job role and site location. In order to demonstrate adherence to health and safety regulations, operators can be expected to manage shift patterns and hours of work, such that they are appropriate and do not result in unnecessary levels of fatigue that may reduce the safety of the operation. Reliance on hours of work limitations (for example the European Working Time Directive) or industry normalised working patterns may no longer be considered sufficient to ensure that the risk posed by fatigue is appropriately managed. This paper presents how a scientific approach can be applied and adapted to suit the context and the populations being studied in order to answer specific operational questions and provide tailored fatigue risk mitigations. It describes a method by which site and job role fatigue levels can be assessed, in order for appropriate controls to be implemented. It will use case studies to illustrate how data collection methods are tailored to reflect specific operational environments. Data collection is particularly important in parts of the industry where common shift arrangements differ from those which have historically been studied. The method outlines an approach to rigorously assess contributors to fatigue and fatigue levels in an organisation following appropriate scientific methods. Both subjective and objective data are collected, using methods such as fatigue and sleepiness scales, sleep diaries and collection of objective sleep data using validated sleep tracking devices. The approach is specifically tailored to the population of interest – reflecting their shift pattern, and collecting further data on workload, task demand, and operational or location-specific factors (for example travel to site, onsite sleeping facilities, or sea sickness on floating platforms). The method also allows for inferences to be made about the impact of circadian misalignment and shift timing on sleep, performance and mood. The method presented in this paper has been used in field data collection in two very different environments. These studies are used as case studies to examine how the methodology can be tailored to ensure that the collected data are appropriate to the operation being studied, and lessons learned to improve the methods in the future.
