Penerapan Metode Clustering Pada Kasus Kecelakaan Kerja

Work accidents are one of the problems that often occur in companies/agencies where accidents happen to employees/workers and cause serious physical injuries. BPJS Employment is an insurance program that is trusted by agencies/companies by claiming Work Accident Insurance (JKK) which can help in easing the financial burden on families as well as initial efforts to handle cases of work accidents that occur. The main aim of this research is to assist companies in handling work accident cases that occur. The data used in this research includes work accident reports collected from the Bpjs Ketenagakerjaan Stabat office. The method used is the clustering method with the K-means algorithm, which was chosen because of its ability to group fairly large amounts of data with fast and efficient computing time. By using the clustering method that has been used to process work accident case data at Bpjs Ketenagakerjaan in Stabat, we can produce new information from the 672 data that have been tested. From 672 work accident case data at Bpjs Employment in Stabat, 3 clusters were obtained with the results of Cluster 1 having 2 work accident case data, Cluster 2 having 9 work accident case data and Cluster 3 having 9 work accident case data.

ANALISIS HUMAN ERROR TERHADAP KESEHATAN DAN KESELAMATAN KERJA PEKERJA LOGAM DAN PERMESINAN PADA PROSES PRODUKSI MENGGUNAKAN PENDEKATAN HEART STUDI KASUS CV ANDHY KARYA

The production process of CV Andhy Karya goes through several production lines, starting from the printing process, casting process, machining and finishing process. The work accident report for 2023 shows that as many as 20% of 30 workers have serious work accidents in the casting and machining process. Occurs during the casting process where the worker's foot is exposed to a hot metal liquid during casting which results in the worker's leg suffering serious burns and being referred to the hospital. Based on the above events, to minimize the occurrence of work accidents and human error, the purpose of this study is to identify and measure human error probability then determine control efforts to minimize the occurrence of human error on occupational safety and health. . The results of this study show. The task with the highest human error probability value in the printing and casting process is task 2.2 to enter raw materials into the combustion furnace, HEP value of 0.283. In the machining process, the task with the highest HEP value is task 1.2, turning on and adjusting the lathe with a HEP value of 0.320. In the finishing process of the task, the highest HEP value, task 1.1, moves the product from the grinding place to the painting place with a HEP value of 0.150. Efforts for control can be done by using stairs with the correct procedures, providing handles on stairs, using anti-slip footwear and not carrying excessive loads. Use PPE (gloves), follow safety procedures recommended by the machine, and maintain concentration in work. Then workers can lift products with a weight that is not excessive and lift products with the help of other tools or not manually such as using a trolly.

Occupational Safety and Health Risk Assessment in an Electronic Manufacturing Company in Indonesia

The health and safety team at Sharp Electronics Indonesia Ltd identified two departments that urgently needed evaluation: Cabinet PU B Department and Total PU B Department, as they have the highest potential for accidents. Based on historical data from work accident reports from the Refrigerator Division between 2015 and the beginning of January 2020, two departments had a tendency to experience work accidents annually: the Door PU A Department and the Roll Forming B Department. The objective was to identify potential hazards in the production process, assess the risk that arises from the production process, and provide risk control recommendations for each department in the Refrigerator Division. The HIRARC approach was used to identify potential dangers by linking potential hazards between workers, tasks, work equipment, and the work environment in an orderly manner. Hazards were identified using the JSA method. Risk assessment was conducted using a semi-quantitative analysis, and risk control was done using a risk control hierarchy. Based on the risk assessment, the risks that needed to be addressed through risk control were head injury, being hit by a cabinet, decreased hearing function, lower back pain, being hit by a compressor, and having a hand clamped by a conveyor. The identification and assessment of occupational accident risks in the four departments revealed six potential occupational accident risks. The highest risk value was head injury and being hit by a cabinet, which were in the very high category in the Cabinet PU B and Total PU B departments.

Violência sexual contra trabalhadora do comércio varejista: Um estudo de caso sobre acidente de trabalho de trajeto

Os dados sobre o crime de estupro permanecem subnotificados nos sistemas de informações, apesar de ocorrerem diariamente e, não raro, em situação de relação com o trabalho, como casos típicos que ocorrem no próprio local onde se desenvolvem as atividades laborais ou no trajeto de ida ou retorno do local de trabalho. O presente estudo objetiva analisar um caso de estupro que culminou com a sua notificação como acidente de trabalho de trajeto e emissão de Comunicação de Acidente de Trabalho (CAT), tornando-se relevante, na medida em que pode ser utilizado como um instrumento de educação profissional para a notificação assertiva nos sistemas de informações que, por sua vez, fornecerão dados que subsidiarão a formulação de políticas públicas direcionadas ao enfrentamento da violência sexual contra a mulher.

Work-related disorders among employees of a federal public university in southern Brazil.

Work-related disorders have considerable impact on the health of workers at a high cost for national budgets. Yet these conditions are globally underreported, less than 8% in Brazil. Shortcomings in health policies and records hinder attempts at establishing the health profile of civil servants in Brazil, who represent 8% of the local workforce. To establish the profile of federal civil servants with work-related disorders and relate it to diagnoses recorded in Civil Servant Work Accident Reports (CS/WAR) issued at a federal public university in southern Brazil. We analyzed 166 CS/WAR; 79.52% corresponded to women, average age 46.46 (SD=10.06), ≥21 years in the job (34.9%), workers at the university hospital (64.46%) and medium- or technical level health care workers (45.78%). Mean duration of sick leave spells was 11.89 (SD=21.33) days. About 41.57% of CS/WAR did not provide an ICD-10 code; 82.5% of the rest corresponded to work accidents, mainly lower extremity injury (31.5%) and 17.50% to occupational diseases, most commonly low back injury and infectious diseases (17.7% each). The results reinforce the need to improve the record system in public service facilities to enable strategies targeting the main health problems exhibited by this population of workers.

Investigation of Work Accidents in Vocational and Technical High Schools

As indicated in work accident reports in educational contexts, it can be noted that students in vocational and technical high schools involved in work accidents are often inexperienced individuals in the tasks or don't have enough occupational knowledge. In this regard, it wouldn't be wrong to say that a thorough occupational health and safety (OHS) awareness must be raised and students must be provided with proper work health and safety education. This study dwells on reported occupational accident cases taking place in Vocational and Technical Anatolian High Schools affiliated with Ministry of National Education (MoNE) in Amasya, Kirsehir and Aydin provinces in Turkey. A total of 147 teachers were solicited for the study in 20 schools. Purposeful and criteria sampling methods were employed while selecting the participants. A qualitative research method was adopted in this study. Data were obtained through semi-structured interview form and obtained data were analysed through content analysis technique. Because of the statistical analysis of the data obtained, the factors affecting the work accidents are presented and the suggestions are given for the precautions to be taken to prevent work accidents or to reduce them to minimum levels.

Prevalence and factors associated with work accidents in a metal-mechanic company.

Work accidents affect more than 700,000 workers in Brazil each year. Among the three economic sectors, industry is the one that contributes with most work accidents in the country. Metallurgical and metal-mechanic companies stand out within this sector as a function of the frequency of leaves resulting from work-related accidents and illnesses. To analyze the occupational profile and hazards associated with work accidents at a metal-mechanic company for the period from 2007 to 2015. Cross-sectional study that analyzed data available in work accident report forms issued by the employer. Thesociodemographic and occupational profile predominantly associated with work accidents at the investigated company included: male gender, age 18 to 29 years old, white people, married or in stable union, with incomplete higher education, welders/assemblers and less than 5years of work at the company. The most frequent types of injuries caused by accidents were fractures, dislocations, strains, contusions, excoriations, cuts and amputations. The most common causative agents were metal parts. The highest accident rates corresponded to 2008 and 2012, in which years economic recession hit the metal-mechanic segment. In addition to pointing to an economic sector with a high-risk work accident profile, the analyzed work accidents - the predominant consequence of which was leave for more than 15 days - might express a selective strategy from the company, which chose not to record less serious accidents.

The encephalogram as a risk predictive test for work at height.

Regulating standard 35 (NR-35) defines work at height as "any activity performed two meters above from ground level and involving risk of falls" and recommends the performance of medical examination to detect "conditions that might cause sudden loss of consciousness and falls from heights". As a result many occupational physicians began to recommend routine electroencephalogram (EEG) to assess employees working at height. However, the validity of EEG for asymptomatic workers is uncertain. To analyze occupational accidents related to work at height occurring from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2014, at a university hospital, and to correlate them with the results of EEGs performed along that period. Cross-sectional study involving review of EEG test,s clinical-occupational records and Work Accident Reports (WAR) of all employees working at height from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2014. Terms in the WAR descriptions were established to investigate the relationship of accidents with "sudden loss of consciousness and falls from heights", such as "fall from a height", "sudden ill feeling", "loss of consciousness", "vertigo", "dizziness" and "syncope". EEG results were classified in three categories: normal, non-epileptic abnormalities and epileptic patterns. WAR descriptions were correlated with EEG results. From 2,464 WARs issued along the investigated period, 2,228 were excluded because they did not correspond to work at height. From the remaining 236 WARs, 61 were excluded because EEG was not performed, therefore, 175 cases were included for analysis. Among the EEG tests assessed, 171 were normal, 4 exhibited non-epileptic abnormalities and none an epileptic pattern. Among all the analyzed cases, 13 descriptions included terms such as "fall from height", "loss of consciousness", "sudden ill feeling", "vertigo", "dizziness" and "syncope"; all the corresponding cases had normal EEG. EEG was not a good predictor of risk for accidents related with work at height in the analyzed sample. EEG should not be performed for assessment of asymptomatic workers, but only in cases with clinical suspicion of neurological abnormalities.

How reliable and valid is the coding of the variables of the European Statistics on Accidents at Work (ESAW)? A need to improve preventive public policies

Great efforts have been made in the European Union to harmonize data gathering for work accident statistics, as they are basic for the decision making of the different agents involved in occupational risk prevention. ObjectiveThis study aims to analyse the coding reliability and validity of a set of variables of work accident report forms notified to the Catalan labour authority. MethodsCross sectional double-blind study. Study population: workers who had suffered a work accident with associated sick leave between October 1st and December 31st 2010 in Catalonia. Reliability of variables related to the characteristics of the worker, their workplace and the accident was analysed with the agreement reliability coefficient (Kappa index). Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were calculated to determine its validity. ResultsThe variables selected in relation to the characteristics of the worker and his/her workplace had a good to excellent reliability; those variables related to the accident causes had low to moderate reliability. ConclusionsThere is great room for improvement in the quality of data of work accident report forms and the different governments involved should increase their efforts in this sense. These actions should be aimed to improve quality of preventive public policies and its efficiency.

Traumatic Injuries in Revue Dancers

Revue productions are a combination of dancing and singing, musical and spoken sequences, and acrobatics, performed with or without a story line, and characterized by a versatility of dance styles and a high number of performances (over 250 in a 10-month season). The aim of this quantitative single cohort study is to evaluate work-related traumatic injuries in this dance genre. Data were obtained from work accident reports of the German Social Accident Insurance Institution for the public sector in Berlin (UKB) involving 440 revue dancers (183 males and 257 females). Analysis was conducted with Excel 2007 and PASW Statistics 18. One out of three female dancers and one out of two male dancers sustained an acute injury in the course of a theatrical season (0.22 injuries per 1,000 hours). The incidence rate was 0.44 for males and 0.31 for females, with the lower extremity as the most commonly injured body region, followed by the spine. Of all occupational accidents, 75.1% happened on stage, with 69% during performances. The dance partner and dance floor were the most common exogenous factors resulting in a traumatic injury. Of all traumatic injuries, 81.7% occurred in the first 3 hours after starting work. Gender specific differences could be observed. Due to the limited availability of comparable studies of other forms of professional dance, in this study revue dance is largely considered as an independent genre.

Dance Partner or Dance Floor?: Exogenous Factors Resulting in Accidents in Professional Dancers

Injury prevention in professional dancers is very important due to the high risk for acute injuries posing a threat to dancers' careers. Causative factors of acute injuries in professional dance can be divided into exogenous and endogenous factors. Although both are known in professional dance, there is still a lack of data to have a differentiated view. The aim of this study is to analyze exogenous factors resulting in work accidents of professional dancers. The data for the evaluation were obtained from work accident reports (n = 1,438, female 722, male 716) from six Berlin Theatres. Evaluation and descriptive statistics were conducted by SPSS 18 and Excel 2007. About half (48.5%, n = 698) of all work accidents are caused by exogenous factors. The "dance partner" is the most common exogenous factor (39.9%), followed by the dance floor (28.24%) and props (13.6%). The lower extremity is the most frequent structure injured in either sex (male 47.3%, female 61.3%), followed by the upper extremity in females (14.6%) and spine in male dancers (19.8%). The stage is the most common injury location in both genders (males 63.9%, females 56.8%). Acute injuries caused by exogenous factors were particularly sustained during performances (males 58.8%, females 50.5%) and during rehearsals (males 33%, females 39.9%). This study shows the key significance of exogenous factors in acute injuries in professional dance. Preserving the dancers' health and preventing injuries takes top priority, and therefore, interventions in the artistic work cannot be ruled out when preventive measures are implemented.

Dance Floors as Injury Risk: Analysis and Evaluation of Acute Injuries Caused by Dance Floors in Professional Dance with Regard to Preventative Aspects

A dance floor is often the only support of movements in dance. A dance floor surface that shows deficiencies, can result in acute injuries and chronic problems. Although the significance of an adequate dance floor is well known, there is still a lack of differentiated analyses of dance floor-related acute injuries. This study presents data on acute injuries exclusively caused by the dance floor. The data were obtained from standardized work accident reports from consultants (F 1000), documentary accident records from all Berlin theatres, a state ballet school (n=2,281), and case records from the Berlin State Accident Insurance (UKB) covering a period of 17 years. All analyses and descriptive statistics were conducted with Excel 2007 and SPSS 18. Dance floor surfaces were the causative factor in 12.8% of all accidents (n=291, female 183, male 108). Almost two thirds (62.6%) of all accidents in professional dancers happened on stage, and almost half (49.5%) occurred during performances. As for causative factors, 53.1% of the professional dancers (P) and 42.5% of the dance students (S) claimed that the floor had been "too slippery," with "getting stuck" or (tripping) as the second most common problem (P 18.4%, S 11.3%). Of the injured dancers, 41.8% were older than 30 years and can therefore be categorized as experienced. Dance floors play a significant role in the occurrence of acute injuries, even in experienced dancers. Performances on stage seem to be a particular risk. However, injury prevention measures should include all work locations (P) as well as non-dance-specific locations (S).
