“…6 Therefore, improved training and provision of adequate information at work helps in the prevention and reduction of work-related errors. 12 The operation of the HIP-FA data processing system is unlikely to be separated from the demand that employees need to master computer operations. Technological advancements has the ability to improve the efficiency and accuracy of reports, thereby making it reliable.…”

Background: The Healthy Indonesia Program is a government program implemented with the Family Approach (HIP-FA) through a survey on healthy families. However, the quality of the program depend on the performance of the Human Resources (HR). This study aims to examine various aspects of HR in implementing the program at health centers. Design and methods: Data were collected through in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions, and document review on eight informants at the Health Office center. Results: Four themes revealed from the study: being burdened, feeling overwhelmed, feeling incompetent, and confused managing technology. The results showed that the implementation of the HIP-FA survey is an additional burden for health center staff. Conclusions: It is necessary to strengthen the implementation of all programs through continuous training and education, positive affirmation, recalculating employee workload and remunerations.

“…Similar to our research finding, Mazzetti et al (2020) demonstrated that the perception of a safety climate among construction workers is inversely associated with the higher perception of risk and safety knowledge [ 51 ]. Training can reduce the rate of absenteeism and accidents, lower healthcare costs, and increase productivity [ 52 ]. Ergonomics training can improve employee knowledge of how they interact with the work environment as individuals and teams.…”

Previous studies have demonstrated that a positive ergonomics climate with an equal focus on improving operational performance and employee well-being is beneficial to both employee health and organizational performance. This study aimed to assess the ergonomics climate at two power plants and examine its association with self-reported pain, performance, and well-being. At two power plants in Iran, survey responses from 109 and 110 employees were obtained. The questionnaires contained data on ergonomics climate, organizational performance, employee health, and self-reported pain. Results showed that the mean ergonomics climate scores between the Besat and Rey power plants were significantly different (p < 0.001). The overall ergonomics climate score, and all subscales scores, were positively associated with organizational performance (p < 0.001). The overall ergonomics climate score, and some of its subscales, were significantly associated with employees’ general health (p < 0.001). The ergonomics climate score was significantly higher in the group of employees who reported musculoskeletal pain than those who did not report musculoskeletal pain (p < 0.05). Investigation of ergonomics climate can provide organizations with a baseline for prioritizing their values and finding areas for improving organizational performance and employee health.

“…Bayesian networks have been extensively used in the field of healthcare [28][29][30][31][32][33] for disease diagnosis and transmission [34], system management [35], sensitivity analysis [36], and other applications. On the one hand, the Bayesian approach is employed in order to explicitly consider the uncertainty of the results [37,38] that are not easily interpretable or considered in other, more classical, methodologies (e.g., regression-based methods).…”

Hearing loss affects hundreds of millions of people all over the world, leading to several types of disabilities, ranging from purely physical to psychological and/or social aspects. A proper analysis to ascertain the main risk factors is essential in order to diagnose early and treat adequately. An exploratory analysis based on a heterogeneous sample of 1418 workers is presented in order to identify the main trigger factors for hearing loss. On the one hand, we recorded several medical and environmental parameters, and on the other, we created a model based on Bayesian networks in order to be able to infer the probability of hearing loss considering different scenarios. This paper focuses on three parameters: gender, age, and a family history of hearing problems. The results obtained allow us to infer or predict the best or worst auditory level for an individual under several different scenarios. The least relevant factor is the existence of a family history of deafness, followed by the gender factor, which slopes considerably toward better hearing for females, and most prominent of all, the age factor, given the large differences identified between the various age groups when the gender and family history of deafness variables remain constant.
