Abstract

Introduction. Sickness absence, which can be caused by an unhealthy lifestyle, is an important productivity parameter for the company. Therefore, there are many wellness programs developed in the workplace in an effort to improve workers’ health, fitness, and productivity. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a physical training program for fitness improvement (VO2 max value) on sickness absence. Methods. This study was conducted by observing the results of the workers' physical training program in the chemical company during 2018, using a cohort retrospective design. SPSS Statistics version 22.0 was used for analysis, with the chi-square test for bivariate analysis and logistic regression for multivariate analysis. Results. The analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the active group (AG) and inactive group (IG) in improving fitness (adjusted RR 4.82, CI 95% 1.54-15.05) and decreasing sickness absence (adjusted RR 3.46, CI 95% 1.03- 11.57). In addition, it was found that participants with normal weight were more likely to increase fitness compared to participants with overweight or obesity (adjusted RR 3.57, 95% CI 1.09-11.64). Conclusion. Participating in a physical training program has been shown to improve fitness levels and reduce sickness absence. Normal nutritional status is more likely to have improved fitness than overweight or obese.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Job stress is a serious health problem in the 21st century because of its high incidence and impact. Nurses are known as a profession that has high risks of stress, has distinctive characteristics, and hence requires a work stress assessment instrument that suits its peculiarities. The Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS) is a nurse-specific stress assessment instrument that has high validity and reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.96) and is widely used in many countries but is not yet available in Indonesian. This study aims to obtain the Indonesian version of ENSS and evaluate its reliability and validity. Method: We applied the 10 steps of ISPOR's (International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research) transcultural adaptation method, followed by validity and reliability tests on 104 nurses at a private hospital in Jakarta. Result: The Indonesian version of the ENSS questionnaire, consisting of 57 items, was obtained. All of the items were valid, with r values ranging from 0.362 to 0.793. Cronbach's alpha was 0.956, and the reliability test value using test-retest was 0.939. Conclusion: The Indonesian version of the ENSS has proven to be valid and reliable and has excellent internal consistency. The instrument can be used to assess job stress among Indonesian nurses. Keywords: ENSS; Indonesian; work stress; nurse

Abstract

Introduction. Railway workers are exposed to many occupational health risk factors that may cause oxidative stress. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity is one of the response biomarkers of oxidative stress. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted from July-October 2021. Eighty-four participants were included in this study. Data about participants’ characteristics, physical activity intensity as measured by the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) version 2, and stress levels as measured by Holmes-Rahe Stress Inventory were collected using Google Forms. The physical examination yielded data on blood pressure, ear condition, and waist circumference. Blood Superoxide dismutase activity and HbA1c levels were determined using the spectrophotometry assay method. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were done using the chi-square test and logistic regression. Results. The proportion of administrative workers with high SOD activities was 78.6% compared to train drivers (33.3%). Administrative workers were 7.1 times more likely to have high SOD activity than train drivers (aOR = 7.1, p-value Conclusion. The train company administrative workers exhibited higher Superoxide Dismutase activity than train drivers. Future study and occupational health programs are needed to investigate occupational factors affecting oxidative stress to prevent potential health disorders.
