Road accidents were the main causes of mortality at young ages, especially for gentlemen, it can also caused physical disabilities. Mortality rates which happened at young ages were caused by the low rates of their awareness perception due to the harm on traffic. This research was conducted to depict the causes of road accidents and safety riding while using vehicles of senior high school students in Samarinda. This research was conducted in nine senior high school which were chosen to represent each district. The total respondents were 315, which were taken using proportional random sampling, each district were represented by one school. The characteristic of respondents in this research was the students in 10th grade, who ride motorcycles to school. The data were collected using questionnaire, to avoid any bias, it was helped by enumerators. Each enumerator monitored 10 respondents. The data were analyzed using chi square with α 0.05%. The results showed that the accidents rate was 30.8%, the rates of using motorcycle due to has none to accompany were 39,4%, due to the long distance were 11.7%. There was relationship between accident rates and safety riding. The relationship between accident and rebelling yellow lamp was p = 0.015, calling p = 0.041, sending SMS p = 0.000, smoking p = 0.01 and riding with more than two p = 0.043. Meanwhile riding with more than 60 km/h speed, listening to the music, out of the street line, disobey the traffic signs have no relationship with road accidents. Factors that cause accidents are driving behavior called warning lights, using the phone, smoking and more than two people while driving.Keywords: accident, high school, riding

Occupational irritant contact dermatitis (OICD) is still a occupational health problem. Shipyard workers are susceptible to OICD. A cross sectional study was conducted on 32 samples of shipyard workers in Samarinda to analyze the prevalence of OICD and related factors. The dependent variable is OICD, while independent variable consists of age, length of service, length of contact, history of skin diseases, personal hygene and personal protective equipment. Data collection through interview and direct observation, data analysis using Phi test and multiple logistic regression. All respondents had OICD and significantly correlated with working period (p = 0.001), history of skin disease (p = 0.004), personal hygene (p = 0.003) and use of PPE (p = 0.05). History of skin disease (B = 1.116) and use of PPE (B = 1.053) are most dominant variables. Personal hygiene improvements, tightening monitoring of use of PPE and improving occupational health efforts have been suggested.

ABSTRAK Tingginya aktivitas dan kepadatan populasi manusia di perkotaan telah menyebabkan polutan udara perkotaan lebih tinggi dibandingkan daerah lainnya. Polusi udara perkotaan dapat bersumber dari kendaraan bermotor dan industri berbahan bakar fosil yang menghasilkan NO2, SO2, SO3, Ozon, CO, HC, dan partikel debu. Pekerja penyapu jalan terpapar berbagai polutan udara setiap hari sehingga berisiko tinggi terkena dampak kesehatan karsinogenik maupun non karsinogenik terutama gangguan pernafasan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui risiko kesehatan akibat paparan SO2 pada pekerja penyapu jalan di Kota Samarinda. Penelitian deskriptif dengan metode Analisis Risiko Kesehatan Lingkungan (ARKL) telah dilakukan terhadap 74 orang responden. Pengambilan sampel SO2 dilakukan di simpang empat Jembatan Dua, simpang empat Air Putih, dan simpang empat Masjid Darussalam Kota Samarinda. Pengukuran konsentrasi SO2 dengan metode spectrofotometer dan risiko kesehatan menggunakan kuesioner. Analisis data menggunakan metode ARKL. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan intake paparan < RfC SO2 (0,0125 mg/kg/hari) dengan konsentrasi SO2 sebesar 0,0043 mg/m3 dan nilai RQ £ 1. Belum ditemukan adanya risiko kesehatan nonkarsinogenik berdasarkan durasi pajanan realtime dan lifetime. Diperlukan upaya pencegahan berupa peningkatan kesehatan, pencegahan spesifik, deteksi dan pengobatan dini untuk mencegah dan mengatasi gangguan pernapasan. Kata Kunci : Risiko kesehatan, SO2, Penyapu Jalan.

Tercemarnya udara di sekitar TPA menyebabkan kesehatan lingkungan terganggu, gas NH3, H2S dan gas pencemar lainnya adalah zat pencemar udara di TPAS yang dapat menyebabkan gangguan kesehatan, terutama meningkatkan gangguan pernapasan. TPAS Bukit Pinang merupakan TPAS yang terdapat di Kota Samarinda dan masih menggunakan metode open dumping yang dapat mengakibatkan pencemaran lingkungan.Desain penelitian dengan pendekatan cross-sectional.3 titik pengambilan sampel NH3 dan H2S dan responden sebanyak 34 orang yang dipilih menggunakan purposive sampling.Analisis data menggunakan Uji T - Independen dengan tingkat kepercayaan 95%.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan konsentrasi NH3 dan H2S di TPA Sampah Bukit Pinang pada titik sampel I, II, dan III masih berada dibawah baku mutu. Hasil uji T - Independent menunjukkan ada hubungan konsentrasi NH3 (?-value = 0,005), konsentrasi H2S (?-value = 0,042), lama pajanan NH3 dan H2S (?-value = 0,000), danRisk Quotient NH3 (?-value = 0,000), H2S (?-value = 0,000) dengan gangguan pernapasan pada penduduk di sekitar TPA Sampah bukit Pinang. Hasil uji Mann-Whitney menunjukkan tidak ada hubungan frekuensi pajanan NH3 dan H2S (?-value = 0,284) dengan gangguan pernapasan pada penduduk di sekitar TPA Sampah Bukit Pinang.

The air pollution in the garbage dump gave the bad effect for the environmental health , NH3, H2S and the other polluted gases were the causes of air pollution that could give the bad effect for health, especially respiratory disorders. The garbage dump of bukit pinang was located in samarinda and still used open dumping method that could cause environmental pollution. Research design used cross sectional approach. The sample of NH3 and H2S was taken at 3 points and there were 34 respondents that were chosen using purposive sampling. Data collection included in the measurement of NH3 and H2S, interview, and observation of respiratory disorders. Data analysis used t-independent test with 95% of confidence level.Result of the study showed that the concentration of NH3 and H2S at garbage dump of Bukit Pinang at sample points I, II, and III was still under quality standard. Result of T - Independent showed that there was relationship among concentration of NH3 (ρ-value= 0,005), concentration H2S (ρ-value=0,042), exposure period of NH3 and H2S (ρ-value=0,000), and Risk Quotient NH3 (ρ-value=0,000), H2S (ρ-value=0,000) with the respiratory disorders of the people around the garbage dump of  bukit pinang. Result of Mann-Whitney test showed that there was no relationship between exposure frequency of NH3 and H2S (ρ-value=0,284) with the respiratory disorders of the people around the garbage dump of bukit pinang
