Introduction: Universitas Airlangga office building rectorate includes a high-rise building that must have occupational health and safety (OHS) facilities and also its application must be in accordance with office building standards which applies to prevent accidents and occupational diseases. This study aims to determine OHS office buildings rectorate facilities, and to analyze OHS standards application for office buildings rectorate with applicable OHS office building standards. Methods: This research is an observational study. Data analysis using descriptive method with a cross sectional study design. The variables studied were OHS office building facilities in Universitas Airlangga Rectorate, and OHS standard application for in Universitas Airlangga office buildings rectorate. Data collection techniques are derived from primary data in OHS observations form facilities in office buildings and secondary data in agency documents form. Results: Work safety facilities include fire extinguishers, hydrants, evacuation routes, evacuation plans, gathering points, first aid kits. emergency stairs, safety sign. Occupational health facilities include health promotion media, workforce health checks, and lactation rooms. Office work environment health facilities include toilets and hand washing facilities. Then office ergonomics facilities include cushions for employee work chairs. Conclusion: The facilities are in accordance with Republic of Indonesia Health Minister Regulation Number 48 of 2016 concerning Office OHS Standards which include occupational safety application, occupational health, and office environmental health standards and office ergonomics. The implementation of OHS standards for office buildings at in Universitas Airlangga Rectorate, such as occupational safety, occupational health, office work environment health, and office ergonomics standards have been implemented and carried out.
A landfill can have an impact on environmental quality such as air pollution from dust and gas produced from the anaerobic decomposition process, especially ifwaste disposal uses an open dumping system,. The results ofthe preliminary study showed that scavengers in the final processing ofgarbage had not used PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) such as masks and did not use hand protectors. Many health complaints felt by them are low back pain and headache. This research was observational, the study design used was a cross-sectional study design. The location of the study was carried out at the Surabaya Benowo waste landfill, the sample in the study w:ls scavengers of women who worked at the Surabaya Benowo waste landfill aged l5-64 years. The method ofmeasuring TSP (Total Suspended Particulate) dust using laboratory tests with gravimetric methods, data on tie use of PPE mask and respiratory complaints were obtained through questionnaires. Statistical tests were used to see strong relationships using Kendall's tau-b with a significance value ofu = 0.05. The results ofthe air quality test in the form ofTSP dust content at the work site ofthe scavengers showed the results of0.0972 mg/Nm3 which meant that TSP dust levels did not exceJd environmental quality standards. Of the 37 scavenger respondents, l3 people (24%o) experienced moderate respiratory complaints and 24 people (65%) experienced mild respiratory complaints. Characteristics of individual scavengers associated with respiratory complaints were cigarette exposure (Sig = 0.025) and disease history (Sig : 0.00). There was no significant relationship between the use ofPPE with respiratory complaints suffered by scavengers at Benowo landfill Surabaya.
