- flesch: 45
- summary: Work place bullying implies a lack of conscience and incapability to experience empathy which is dangerous for the nursing community who are supposed to be caring and show compassion to the community and their patients.19Bullying victims are four times more likely to experience depression and three times more likely to report problems in sleeping and twice likely to experience stress.20Our study has shown that bullying does exist, and the fi ndings are not very diff erent from other studies as mentioned above. There is an increasing demand for nurses due to multiple factors viz; an aging population, greater diversifi cation in society, multiculturalism, marginalized populations and increasing technologies.1According to a study, “Bullying is defi ned as a situation in which someone is exposed to hostile behavior on the part of one or more persons in the work environment which aim continually and repeatedly to off end, oppress, maltreat, or to exclude or isolate over a long period of time”.2 Verbal abuse, threats, humiliation, intimidation, and behaviors that interfere with job performance are all considered workplace bullying.

- summary: Although ER nurses reported bad SQ and 70% sleep effi ciency, they had moderate problems with daytime functioning and used less sleep medication.3 Nurses comprise of health care providers who work round the clock so they need to work in shifts.6-8 Shift work is recognized as working irregular hours organized into 2-shift or 3-shift systems and include rotation work, and night work.9,10 Thus, the current study aims to assess the SQ disturbances and identify the relationship of shift fl uctuations and other demographic and work related variables with SQ among ER nurses in Jordan.

- summary: Keywords: Ergonomic assessment, occupational health, posture load, work risk Introduction Important work procedures and processes are as- sociated with manual load handling (MLH), most of which are involved in productive sectors such as agriculture, construction, and industry.1 An im- portant aspect that has caught the attention of oc- cupational health units, ergonomics departments, and public health centers is the collection of data that relate risks associated with MLH with postural load and the prevalence of musculoskeletal disor- ders in workers.2,3 Although the approach to occupational health in- cludes various disciplines, the study of the work- place continues to be a powerful diagnostic tool, as work in the industrial area continues to present serious problems about the adoption of poor harm- ful postures to carry out productive tasks.4 Safety Health, Volume 13, No 1 (2023), 47-54 https://www.nepjol.info/index.php/IJOSH Original Article Postural stress and risk conditions in manual load handling of Chilean industrial workers Urrejola-Contreras GP1, Pérez-Casanova DC2, Pérez-Lizama MA1, Gary-Zambra B3 1 Escuela de Ciencias de la Salud, Universidad Viña del Mar, Chile.

- summary: In this work, the authors introduce a new construct, PSC leadership, into the literature, and through a longitudinal study conclude that transformational leadership has a smaller impact on PSC.39 Questions relating to other contemporary leadership styles and their impact on PSC remain unanswered. In other words, the PSC said to be applicable in a workplace brings about work engagement, but only if management offers demonstrated support for employees’ psychological health.26 While Yulita and colleagues’ (2017) study was conducted in a cohort of Malaysian teachers, similar findings were made in an Australian study among ambulance staff across two states where it was found that PSC contributes to better mental health outcomes in workers.19 In this study the behavior of managers, referred to as manager PSC, accounted for a higher variance in the mental health of workers (13%, for both well-being and common mental health disorders).

Assessment of liver and renal function tests among gasoline exposed gas station workers in Mekelle city, Tigray region, Northern Ethiopia. Alterations in lipid profile, increased insulin resistance, decreased nitric oxide (NO) availability, endothelial dysfunction, increased insulin resistance, platelet dysfunction, high blood viscosity, alternations in fibrinolysis, ongoing inflammatory responses with rising inflammatory markers, and more recently free radicals-mediated oxidative stress play a vital role in the mediation of atherothrombosis appear to play an important role in the mediation of atherothrombotic.5 Smoking cigarettes raises plasma catecholamine levels, which causes lipolysis and the production of free fatty acids, which the liver absorbs.

- flesch: 51
- summary: The changing trend in heat-related mortality was also observed across several years -1972, 1988, 1998 and 2003 in which there were more than 10 heat waves days on average across India, with a corresponding surge in heat-related mass mortality of between 650 and 1500 people.10 However, the impacts of such heat stress on occupational safety and health remain understudied.5,11 Occupational heat stress is the net load to which a worker is exposed from the combined contributions of metabolic heat, environmental factors, and clothing which results in an increase in heat storage in the body.12 Therefore, Occupational heat stress in industries especially those that have high heat-inducing nature of the environment is critical to understand as workers who are working in such an environment are vulnerable to heat stress and the economic burden is substantial.13 In India, despite widespread recognition of this problem, a limited attempt has been made to estimate health impacts related to occupational heat stress. There is a need to record heat stress in these industries as a self-regulatory mechanism and a need to invest in engineering interventions to protect workers from occupational heat stress.

- summary: Recent literature gives support for this proposition.27,28 Consequent to the salient literature reviewed and the bid to fill the gaps earlier identified in the literature, this study is guided by the following hypotheses: H1: Ethical sensitivity will positively and significantly predict caring behavior. Ethical sensitivity was found to be a positive and significant predictor of caring behavior among healthcare workers.

- summary: The probability of Covid-19 infection from patient to healthcare personnel was quite low in the outpatient department, while the CVICU and ARI had a higher probability (Table 3). In general, a well-functioning ventilation system provides temperature and humidity conditions that lower biological viability.36,37 The bacterial bioaerosol concentration in MOPD (618.37±24.9 cfu/m3) was less than in POPD (1,837.46±177.52 cfu/m3), approximately 3-fold so because MOPD had higher room ventilation rate than POPD.

- summary: Among the respondents, 91.8%, 75.1%, and 48.9% had good knowledge, positive attitudes, and good practice toward COVID-19 prevention strategies respectively. Multivariate regression revealed that age, spiritual or sin, training, knowledge, attitude, opposition to wearing, ordinary residents, and hoping leaders can win against COVID-19 were predicted practices of COVID-19 prevention strategies Conclusion: The practice of COVID-19 prevention strategies was so poor and needed adequate attention.

- summary: Pesticides in either of its form whether insecticides or herbicides or rodenticides or fungicides are used for protecting harvested crops and seeds from fungal rot.7 The practices of pesticide handling and farmers' cognizance about pesticide use and overuse also play a vitally important role in safe spraying.8,9,10 So, the study aims to find knowledge, attitude, and practice of pesticide use among agricultural workers and also to assess the awareness of farmers about pesticides label on pesticide bottles or packets. In our study we had a similar finding to a study from India, 32(56%) of farmers had good knowledge regarding pesticides.10 Mohanty et al. reported respondents were not using any protective equipment during pesticide spraying in our study also only 42(56.8%) were using PPE.3 Bhandari G study Jyoti et al. Knowledge, attitude, and practice of pesticide use among agricultural workers of Lamatar, Lalitpur, Nepal 447 state higher use of mask, boot, and clothes which is not similar to our finding as in our study only 18(24.3%) were using a mask, 12(16.2%) were using gloves and only 3 (4.1%) used shoes or boot.
