Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Adaptation to management philosophy and refraining from seeking medical care in Japanese employees: a one-year prospective cohort study Subject The topic of the resource Adaptation, management philosophy, refraining, medical care, Japanese employees Description An account of the resource Introduction: Due to the growing interest in health and productivity management, an increasing number of companies have adopted the “pursuit of well-being” or “maintenance and promotion of health” of employees as their management philosophy (MP). We examined the association between adaptation to MP and refraining from seeking medical care (RSMC) among Japanese employees in a single company following the MP of “pursuit of employees’ well-being”. Material and methods: We surveyed 2,797 employees (2,064 men and 733 women) from two factories of a Japanese manufacturing company following the MP of “pursuit of employees’ well-being”. We distributed a self-administered questionnaire assessing the adaptation to MP (three items adapted from Wang [2009]) and potential confounders. At one-year follow-up, we measured RSMC with a single question, “In the past year, have you ever refrained from visiting a hospital, clinic, acupuncturist, or dentist despite your sickness (including a slight cold or cavity) or injury?” We conducted multiple logistic regression analyses. Results: After adjusting for potential confounders, a significant association emerged between lower adaptation to MP and RSMC (OR=1.16 [95% CI: 0.93–1.45] and 1.34 [95% CI: 1.04–1.72] for the middle- and the low-tertile group of adaptation to MP, respectively, p for linear trend=0.018). Conclusions: To encourage employees to seek medical care when they are not feeling well, it is essential for companies to not only set forth the “pursuit of employees’ well-being or health” as their MP but also to put that philosophy into practice and to spread it throughout the company.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 The role of occupational health nurses when implementing hearing conservation program in the workplace Subject The topic of the resource occupational health nurses, hearing conservation program, workplace Description An account of the resource Introduction: Occupational health nurse practitioners provide primary health care, counseling and occupational health care including implementation of the hearing conservation program in the workplace as one facet designed to lower the risk of occupational noise-induced hearing loss. Legislation in South Africa has been improved recently and allows occupational health nurse practitioners to carry out occupational legislative requirements to ensure legal compliance at the workplace. Data analysis: Ethnographic data analysis was guided by the framework outlined by Roper and Shapira (2000). This framework has five iterative steps, which were followed in this study. Methods: A qualitative, explorative, descriptive study that used focused ethnography was used. Discussion: Hearing conservation has become a powerful health promotion tool for both the employer and an employee to protect the health of workers at their workplaces. Yet, considering the often-touted “hierarchy of control” the program assists OHNPs in obtaining a better approach to their practices in terms of who must do what; assists in dealing thoroughly with the risks in the work environment hence the hierarchy of controls has been used as a means of determining how to implement feasible and effective control solutions. Results: Five occupational health clinics were identified, ten participants consented to participate in the study. Conclusion: Findings concluded that occupational health services are provided in the workplace to address the health care needs of employees and have been identified as an important component to ensure the welfare of those in employment.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Canadian salmon aquaculture: the absence of antimicrobial resistance from hazard designation in an industry with high reporting of occupational injuries Subject The topic of the resource Canadian salmon aquaculture, antimicrobial Description An account of the resource Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) exposures can adversely affect the health of workers and their communities, particularly in animal production, but are unlikely to be captured by compensation claims data outside of clinical occupations. Salmon aquaculture is an important industry in Canada that reports high occupational injury rates linked to exposures to diverse hazards. Aquaculture reports antimicrobial use (AMU), yet AMR is not designated as a biological occupational hazard. Methods: Occupational claims data from Atlantic Canadian aquaculture were analyzed to describe injury characteristics. Trends in aquaculture AMU and relevant policy were reported to contextualize barriers that prevent surveillance for occupational exposures to AMR factors. Results: Injured workers most frequently reported injuries attributed to physical and ergonomic hazards leading to soft tissue damage and open and superficial wounds to the back, legs, and fingers. AMR designation as an occupational hazard is hindered at three distinct levels: i) Surveillance program for AMR emergence in aquaculture is absent. ii) Latent onset of symptoms linked to occupational AMR exposures mitigate against related compensation claims. iii) Data reporting gaps impede correlative analyses of AMU and clinical AMR. Conclusions: AMR surveillance requires an iterative and One Health approach. Currently, occupational claims data facilitate only retrospective analyses biased towards observable physical injuries with clear occupational origins. Surveillance requires a paradigm shift that promotes prospective analyses to guide health protective strategies.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Occupational inhalation accidents in the UK: findings from the Surveillance of Work Related Occupational Respiratory Diseases (SWORD) scheme 1999–2018 Subject The topic of the resource Occupational inhalation accidents, UK, Surveillance of Work Related Occupational Respiratory Diseases (SWORD) Description An account of the resource Introduction: Although inhalation accidents are important occupational cause of preventable lung injuries, little is known about their cause and epidemiology. This study aimed to investigate changes in the incidence of medically reported occupational inhalation accidents and their potential causes over time in the UK. Methods: Data on incident cases of occupational inhalation accidents reported to SWORD surveillance scheme between 1999 and 2018 (inclusive) were extracted and analysed in groups of four 5-year time periods. Descriptive analyses of causative exposure, occupation and industrial sectors were conducted and incidence rates were estimated. Results: A total of 172 cases were reported. The average annual incidence rate (1999–2018) was 0.9 cases/million employed, with estimates falling from 1.7/million employed in 1999–2003 to 0.5 in 2014–2018. Cases were reported most frequently from the public administration and defence sector (13%), followed by the medical sector (9%), with domestic cleaners (4%) and fire service officers (4%) the most frequently reported occupations. Certain historic causative exposures (e.g. smoke inhalation) were no longer reported by the end of the study period, while many known causes (e.g. cleaning agents) were persistently linked to reported cases over the study period. Conclusions: Whilst the incidence of inhalation accidents appears to have fallen, certain established causative exposures appear to be persistently linked to reported cases. Awareness of current causative exposures is necessary in order to define evidence-based interventions to reduce their occurrence.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Shared measures to contain the SARS-COV-2 wave: a regional experience in Italy to counter the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in elderly care facilities Subject The topic of the resource SARS-COV-2 wave, COVID-19 pandemic Description An account of the resource Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has gone through several phases, worldwide. Italy, before all the other countries, was characterized by a first serious phase, especially in residential healthcare facilities, which host fragile and vulnerable patients. This study aims to evaluate the response capacity of these structures to the SARS-COV-2 emergency, in Sulmona, Italy, a small reality in the Italian province with a higher life expectancy. Material and Methods: From March to December 2020, we analyzed the healthcare facilities management models, through drafted checklists oriented to 3 macro-items: work organization, risk management, and occupational health and safety, and in a second phase we checked these measures. We verified the epidemic trend through the direct screening for SARS-COV-2 in operators and patients. Results: 18 facilities (100%) responded by filling in the checklist; adherence to COVID-19 emergency measures was analyzed. The average time to return the questionnaires was 5.11 days. 478 patients and 238 operators were screened for SARS-COV-2. All tested negative for SARS-COV-2; On that occasion, the described measures in the checklists were verified. No epidemic outbreaks were recorded in the wards, but a facility was affected by a cluster among the kitchen operators. Conclusions: the examined facilities showed a good response to the regulatory constraints for the SARS-COV-2 emergency. This study shows the importance of a prevention management model, shared with the control authorities, also in the case of other future pandemics, for the containment of viral spread within healthcare facilities.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Differential effects of 1-MHz low intensity pulsed ultrasound in human keratinocytes Subject The topic of the resource 1-MHz low intensity pulsed ultrasound in human keratinocytes Description An account of the resource Introduction: The wide use of low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) suggests the need to better understand the related biological effects. We investigated the mechanical stress produced by 1 MHz LIPUS in human keratinocytes in terms of deregulation of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6, cell viability and membrane permeability. DNA damage was also tested to evaluate clastogenic and aneugenic LIPUS-induced genomic damage. Materials and Methods: In vitro exposure at 1 MHz LIPUS (10% duty cycle and pulses of 300 s) were performed on HaCaT cell line at varying Intensity (Ispta <100 mW/cm2) and exposure time up to 1 hour. Pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of nuclear factor-B (NF- B) were detected by real-time qPCR, ELISA and immunofluorescence assays. Related effects on plasma membrane, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were also evaluated through confocal microscopy, flow cytometry and by following the gene expression of Bax/Bcl- 2. Finally, cytokinesis-blocked BN cell preparations and CREST immunofluorescence staining were performed. Results: Our results pointed out that 1 hour exposure of 1 MHz LIPUS (Ispta 65 mW/cm2) promotes both significant IL-6 gene overexpression and protein secretion which is associated with the activation of NF-B. We also found concomitant effects on membrane permeability and cell viability. Micronucleus test evidenced no clastogenic damage at any dose tested and a significant induction of aneugenic damage only with the highest dose employed probably due to the perturbation of the mitotic apparatus.

EU funds and the European Employment and Social Innovation Program support occupational health training. Materials and methods: To study the knowledge and the skills of the workers to protect and strengthen health in the work environment and the effective recovery, there was conducted a questionnaire and a documentary survey of 364 workers and 40 employers and officials in health and safety at work in economic activities related to administrative services, production incl. construction and retail outlets for the period 2017–2019. An assessment of the level of awareness about the risks of health damage, an assessment of training and ability to work was performed. An analysis of the psychological attitude towards these trainings by employers and employees was made. Results: The study found reliable information about the knowledge of employees about the risks of their own workplace, the compliance with the rules of safe work, the study of legislation harmonized with European laws, the company policy in occupational medicine, incl. training methods and educational levels. Conclusions: The facts and the data obtained point to the need to update the legislation to include new requirements for the functioning, the disabilities and the health of the workers, to objectify the relationship “working conditions – health – ability to work.” Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Galya Stankova, Lidiya Hristova, Nevena Tzacheva Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Korea LLC Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource January 2022 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Sri Wahyuni Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource PDF Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Text Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Bulgaria health and safety at work Jurnal Internasional Keperawatan training https://repository.horizon.ac.id/files/original/69a98296c0099614eaffa267b8566e1b.pdf 050a1d7bb45abd7e57a001bb7e43bf0e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Safety and Health at Work Vol. 13 Supplement 1 2022 Occupational exposure and lung function decline in population-based studies: a systematic review and meta-analysis Subject The topic of the resource Occupational exposure, lung function decline Description An account of the resource Introduction/Aim: Occupational exposures can accelerate age-related lung function decline. Some population-based longitudinal studies have investigated this association. However, the evidence has not been systematically synthesized. Methods: Ovid Medline, PubMed, Embase via Ovid, and Web of Science were searched using keywords and text words related to occupational exposure and lung function and 12 studies identified using pre-defined inclusion criteria. The quality of the studies was assessed and fixed and random-effect meta-analysis including four studies performed. The heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 test, and publication bias was evaluated using funnel plots. The review was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42020154227). Results: Ever exposure to gases/fumes and vapours, gas, dust or fumes (VGDF) was associated with FEV1 decline. Ever exposure to fungicides and aromatic solvents was associated with lung function decline (FEV1). No significant association was observed between exposures to biological dust, mineral dust, herbicides, insecticides, and metals. Cumulative exposure to gases/fumes and fungicides was found to be associated with lung function in most of the studies. However, this was not included in the meta-analysis, due to inconsistent reporting of the outcomes across the studies. Conclusion: Pooled estimates from population-based studies have provided evidence that several occupational exposures were associated with lung function decline. Both exposure controls in relevant jobs and respiratory health surveillance are required to protect the lung health of workers in these industries.

Our objective was to study the clinical, para- clinical and etiological characteristics of Toxic neuropathies related to occupational exposure to OS. Methods: Descriptive retrospective study involving 12 cases of PN due to OS who consulted the department of occupational medicine in Rabta Hospital Tunis, between 2000 and 2021. Results: Our series included 12 patients with male predominance (9 cases) and a mean age of 41±10 years. The main work stations described were those exposing to glue (4 cases). The chemical industry sector was the most concerned sector (5 cases), followed by the shoe manufacturing sector (2 cases). The use of respiratory protection equipment was reported by only 2 patients. Neurological manifestations appeared on average 17.7 years after hiring. We reported 7 cases of PN of the lower and/or upper limbs and 5 cases of trigeminal neuritis. An organic psychosyndrom to solvents was associated in 5 patients. The incriminated OS were hexane (6 cases), hexane with tetrachloroethane (1 case) and trichloroethylene. Eleven patients benefited from a transfer to another workstation not exposing to OS vapors while one patient benefited from an early retirement. All cases were reported as compensable occupational diseases. Conclusion: Toxic PN related to OS are not very frequent but still disabling conditions. Prevention must involve the substitution of OS which have significant neurotoxic potential and reinforcement of early detection of these neuropathies.
