Enhancing Workers' Welfare through Participatory Occupational Health Policies in Riau’s Manufacturing Industry
Authors: Jasmaniar  , Marniati
Published: December 2024

Workers’ welfare is a crucial determinant of productivity and sustainability in the manufacturing industry. In Riau, challenges such as inadequate occupational health policies and lack of awareness about health standards have negatively impacted workers’ well-being. This study aims to enhance workers' welfare through the participatory implementation of occupational health policies using the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. This community-based participatory research was conducted in three manufacturing companies in Riau. The PAR approach involved four key phases: problem identification, collaborative planning, implementation of health-focused interventions, and evaluation. Data were collected through surveys, focus group discussions, and workplace observations, involving both workers and management. Quantitative data on welfare metrics were complemented by qualitative insights from stakeholder interviews. The implementation of occupational health policies significantly improved workers’ welfare indicators, including reduced workplace accidents (by 25%), increased job satisfaction scores (from 65% to 85%), and enhanced worker productivity (by 15%). Qualitative findings revealed heightened awareness and cooperation among workers and employers regarding health and safety standards. Stakeholders reported that the participatory approach fostered a sense of ownership and accountability. The results demonstrate that participatory strategies are effective in addressing workplace health challenges in the manufacturing sector. The PAR approach enabled the co-creation of practical solutions tailored to local needs, fostering long-term commitment from all stakeholders. This study highlights the importance of involving workers and management in policy development to achieve sustainable improvements in welfare.

Authors: Lingmin Wei , Abdul Ghani Khatipah Binti , Islam Aminul
Published: December 2024

The aim of this research was to investigate the link between the level of employee satisfaction and the philosophy of leadership of Chinese rural school administrators. The researchers examined the connection between job happiness and leadership ideologies using a variety of ideas. They used data from 151 rural schools and 1438 teachers to examine it. The findings demonstrated that, whereas avoidant passive leadership had a negative relationship with work satisfaction, transformational leadership practices enhanced teachers' job satisfaction. The study also found that the emotional component of employees' loyalty to the company moderated several correlations between leadership styles and job satisfaction. Every aspect of national culture, apart from masculinity, was associated with certain leadership philosophies. The findings suggest that educators and policymakers should consider these findings when implementing leadership principles in rural schools. More research is necessary to completely understand the complex relationship between job satisfaction and leadership ideologies in distant schools.

Artificial intelligence in the supply chain: Legal issues and compliance challenges
Authors: Kramer Samuel G.
Published: December 2024

Driven by the rise of Big Data and improvements in computational power, artificial intelligence (AI) solutions are transforming entire industries, including their supply chains. These technologies can leverage the collection of data across a wide variety of supply chain sources, bringing optimisations to everything from customer engagement to business intelligence, but they are not without risks. The process of implementing AI into supply chain management practices can easily lead to noncompliance without a robust data governance strategy at a company level. In order to mitigate these risks, as well as ensure standards of safety and quality, a critical examination of all AI technologies across their entire life cycle is required. This paper serves to outline recent developments in AI technology and how they have been implemented in supply chain management across industries. The risks of implementing AI solutions in the supply chain are discussed through case studies as well as recent litigation involving breaches of data privacy laws, licensing agreements and other liability stemming from inappropriate use of AI technologies. A summary of the current state of AI law and policy in the US and European Union (EU) serves as a basis for recommendations for adoption of responsible AI practices. Through the establishment of AI governance frameworks that assess risks at all stages of the implementation process, AI solutions can be designed and implemented that are reliable, secure and resilient.
Optimising lead qualification through machine learning: A customer data-driven approach
Authors: Josephine V L Helen , Moorthy Vasudevan , Sai Chandana , Joji Bindhia
Published: December 2024

Lead generation is the process of turning an outside person or business into a customer of the business. Traditionally, marketing personnel must conduct significant follow-ups in order to convert even one potential consumer. Converting bad client leads can cause businesses to burn through cash reserves. As a result of this, it is now necessary to develop an automated system that can correctly anticipate whether or not a lead should be explored (converted to a customer or not). In this study, an attempt is made to evaluate historical data for leads produced by other businesses in order to train and validate a machine learning (ML)/deep learning (DL) model and test it against real-world characteristics to categorise them as hot leads (convert to customers) or cold leads (failed leads). This can be achieved by employing ML algorithms, low code–no code libraries, such as PyCaret in Python, and can be used to make predictions regarding probable lead creation, propensity to convert generated leads and optimal actions on the leads by communications teams. Supervised ML algorithms such as logistic regression, decision trees, random forests and other models using a Python library were built to score leads for identifying potential conversions. With good and broad lead-scoring models in place, businesses can optimise their CTI actions on the basis of lead prioritisation and let go of non-prospect leads at the right time to cut costs and enable efficiency. The result of this study reveals that 52 per cent of the sample of 74,779 leads are cold leads and 48 per cent are hot leads that are sales qualified. The leads are qualified using the lead score matrix. This method can aid digital businesses to remove unqualified leads and manage leads better, and therefore improve the quality of the leads sent to clients. This, in turn, will improve conversion rates for individual customers. These increased conversion rates will enhance the business strategy of digital marketing firms.
Bridging the gap between leadership and innovation to maximise return on investment
Authors: Gonzalez Ben
Published: December 2024

A wide gap exists between leadership and innovation, which ultimately affects a company’s return on investment (ROI) potential. Research shows that organisational structures and processes alone are not the solution. This paper explains how a hybrid organisational structure combined with the cultivation of an innovative environment and upskilling employees with domain knowledge and technical skills can bridge the gap between leadership and innovation to maximise the ROI. By providing a step-by-step framework, companies can use this paper as a guide for large business transformations. Additionally, the paper highlights the importance for leaders to shift mindsets to cultivate an innovative environment, because the previous culture set in place was built for an entirely different structure. The selection of team leaders at the business unit level is just as important as selecting the right software applications and processes. The paper concludes by stating the importance of domain knowledge and technical skills focused on team leads who possess both to bridge the gap between leadership and innovation.
Powerful tools for personalisation: Using large language model-based agents, knowledge graphs and customer signals to connect with users
Authors: Earley Seth , Mehta Sanjay
Published: December 2024

This paper discusses how large language models’ (LLMs) agentic workflows powering ChatGPT types of applications can use a combination of enterprise data sources to hyper-personalise information at scale for customers or employees. Typical use cases include marketing communications, customer support, content creation and digital assistants. The approaches described are at one level established in theory; however, practical adoption has been challenging and the combination of templated prompts with LLMs and agent call outs to external application programming interfaces and knowledge sources are new. The data sources using these approaches include knowledge, content and transactional data with near real time and real time customer signals. Customer signal data can include first, second or third party data that describes the characteristics of a customer or employee, as well as real time ‘digital body language’ — click paths, searches, responses to campaigns and chatbot dialogues. Two use cases in two industries — automotive and industrial manufacturing — will be detailed to illustrate how the same principles and approaches can be applied in situations that are very different, and how a knowledge architecture combined with retrieval augmented generation (RAG) should be developed and applied. Analytics to monitor outcomes and enable manual and automated course corrections will be discussed. The outcomes are unified and contextualised experiences realising the sometimes ambitious designs of user experience developers. It is easier to storyboard a design than it is to make it a reality. Marketing organisations are more and more responsible for the end-to-end customer journey and experience. However, the customer journey is a knowledge journey. At each step of the process, they are asking questions about the company, product or service. What product and solutions do you offer? Which ones are right for me? How do I choose a particular offering? How do I purchase or procure the product or service? How can I maintain it, and get service or support? How do I get the most from my purchase? What are the options for upgrading or enhancing my solution? These are marketing communications that consist of educating the prospect rather than selling to them. Today's prospects are empowered with greater information and understanding of offerings and the competition than ever before. Marketing is therefore responsible for helping them make the decision based on information and references that are presented at each stage of the journey.

Authors: Vieira Viviane Tabchoury de Barros , De Almeida Luis Fernando , Grandinetti Francisco Jose , Soares Alvaro Manoel Sousa
Published: December 2024

In the aviation industry, foreign objects (FOs) - any items not part of the aerospace product - pose risks of damage if they come into contact with aircraft. This study explores the implementation of both automated and manual image processing techniques for the detection of FOs, aiming to enhance safety by reducing inspection times and improving quality over traditional manual methods. The proposed approach utilizes infrared cameras for image capture in low-light or complex environments, combining automated detection algorithms with manual oversight. Experiments were conducted on the structures and cockpit of the Super Tucano 314, Xavante AT-26, and the F5 (J85 model) engine, employing the Yoosee application for imaging and Python with Anaconda Spider for processing. The results demonstrate the system's ability to identify FOs that are difficult to detect visually, ultimately contributing to a reduction in operational risks within the aerospace sector.
Advice for chief nurses on integrating LGBTQ+ inclusive practices into the healthcare system through centred qualitative exploration
Authors: Cheirard Nguyen , Gretha Labrag
Published: December 2024

Objective: This research aims to uncover effective strategies for fostering an equitable environment for LGBTQ+ individuals as well as potential barriers to achieving this and classifies these strategies based using the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) framework.Methods: We conducted a qualitative exploration using in-depth interviews with chief nurses at a selected sample of healthcare organizations throughout Thailand. Thematic analysis was performed to identify recurring themes and classify strategies according to the ERIC framework.Findings: The study highlighted five factors that influenced the application of LGBTQ+-inclusive practices: corporate training programs, clarity in organization policy and directives, support from management,  tackling culture in the organization, and (5) staff participation in continuous education. Training programs, as well as clear policy implementation, had the largest hits amongst these. The accessibility of information, combined with cultural and behavioral changes, could be contributing to the recent increase in segregation, the authors argue, and cultural resistance continues to be a significant barrier, suggesting that targeted efforts are needed to address underlying biases. Moreover, through community engagement and a digital learning tocreate breaking routes for inclusivity emerged as one of the innovative ways.Novelty: The study uniquely integrates qualitative exploration and the ERIC-framework to yield actionable recommendations for chief nurses. It draws attention to other seemingly overlooked barriers including cultural resistance and suggests creative solutions customized to the socio-cultural setting of Thailand, not mentioned in other literature.Research Implications: The insights provide practical advice for healthcare executives who want to foster inclusive settings for LGBTQ+ patients. The study highlights many of the necessary conditions tailored strategy, staff training, and policy implementation for achieving equity in health-care delivery.” These themes will provide guidance to chief nurses in Thailand as well as other areas where socio-cultural behaviours can govern clinical activity, and they provide a pathway to wider adoption of inclusive behaviours in global healthcare systems.

Se realiza reimplante del diente avulsionado, afrontando y ferulizando durante 4 semanas. Se utiliza tratamiento combinado acupuntural y zonal de laserterapia, sin necesidad del uso de antibióticos, propiciando una rápida adaptación y reinserción del diente, que pasados 6 meses mantiene su vitalidad pulpar.

Palabras clave: avulsión; reimplante dentario; dientes; traumatismo dentoalveolar.

Abstract

Dental avulsion is the complete pop-out of a tooth from its alveolus, which has high frequency in the care of dental emergencies, so there must be adequate professional preparation for its care. The best treatment is replantation of the patient's own tooth. We present the case of a female patient of 30 years of age who, as a result of a bicycle accident, presented avulsion of tooth 11 and horizontal fracture of the left upper central tooth. The avulsed tooth is replanted, facing its sides and ferulizing for 4 weeks. Combined acupuncture and zonal treatment of laser therapy is used, without the use of antibiotics, favoring a rapid adaptation and reinsertion of the tooth, which after 6 months maintains its pulp vitality.

Keywords: avulsion; dental replantation; teeth; dentoalveolar trauma.
„gleichsam wie in einem durchsichtigen und nicht materiellen Körper“ : Naturwissenschaftliche Ausdrücke und Bilder im psychologischen Diskurs um 1800
Authors: Lindner Henriett
Published: December 2024

Psychology, in its initial phase about 1800, borrowed not only its methodology but also its vocabulary from natural science, primarily from physics. Well-known scientific phenomena of the time – magnetism, electricity, optics and acoustics – found their way into natural philosophical, medical or literary texts as metaphors for mental processes. The trans-disciplinary character of such borrowings, a part of which had a redefined meaning, led to fundamental definitions of the new discipline. This enabled the founders of psychology to set themselves apart from the primacy of empiricism and quantifiability in accordance with a Romantic holistic view of the world on the one hand, and to assert psychological knowledge itself in the landscape of science on the other.
Zwischen Verlust und Hoffnung: Die Bedeutung von Objekten in Adalbert Stifters „Der Nachsommer“ (1857) und „Der Tandelmarkt“ (1841) und W. G. Sebalds „Austerlitz“ (2001)
Authors: Perić Nikoleta
Published: December 2024

Adalbert Stifter and W.G. Sebald share a strong interest in things and collections in their works of fiction, reflecting a desire to create a permanent memory. In Stifter’s work, this is achieved through documenting objects, with which he aims to establish a perfect world and reduce the possibility of change. Sebald’s work, on the other hand, could not be perceived as the mapping of the world. Sebald depicts objects that can be interpreted in various ways precisely because of their loss of meaning; they are either represented as a replacement of the lost memories or reveal themselves as silent observers of the time. This study examines both museum collections and flea markets in the works of these authors, exploring how these diverse contexts influence the perception of objects. Although both authors draw on the poetological principle of collecting, their works represent two different historical contexts and experiences of loss, giving the collected objects a whole new meaning.

Relationship between Mathematics Self Efficacy and Mathematics Achievement
Authors:   Alagappa University, Yousuf Ms.Ishrat , Rajeswari G ,   Alagappa Univesiry
Published: December 2024

Mathematics self efficacy has been described as the belief a student holds in regard to her or his ability to enact mathematical tasks. Mathematics self efficacy, or the belief inside oneself about their capability to succeed in completing mathematics tasks-a psychological construct-was found to be a powerful contributor to mathematics achievement. The relationship between self efficacy and achievement is not only direct but significantly reciprocal and interdependent. Compared to students with lower perceived self efficacy in mathematics, students with high maths self efficacy are likely to exhibit positive learning behaviors and use effective problem-solving strategies with perseverance in tackling challenging tasks, which by extension further enhances performance. Conversely, success in mathematics reinforces self efficacy, creating a feedback loop that continually enhances achievement. Research has consistently shown that mathematics self efficacy is positively correlated with mathematics achievement. This study explores the relationship between mathematics self efficacy and achievement reviewing relevant literature and theoretical models.

Published: December 2024

Early Childhood Education (ECCE) has an important role in shaping the basis of children's knowledge and understanding of the surrounding world, including animal recognition. At Al-Hidayah ECD, animal recognition materials currently use only picture cards, songs, and stories, conducted four times a week. However, there are drawbacks to this method, which is that it only introduces animals based on the letter prefixes of the alphabet and has not introduced the type of food and ecosystem of animals. The results showed that the success rate of animal recognition by students was only 55% with the usual method. In an effort to improve animal recognition methods, this research aims to develop learning media innovations using Augmented Reality (AR) technology with a focus on recognizing animal types based on food and its ecosystem. In this study, researchers chose the Multimedia Development Lyfe Cycle (MDLC) method because this method is suitable for designing and developing multimedia applications. This research was conducted at PAUD Al-Hidayah. The creation of this learning media application was made using the main software Unity 3D. Based on the results of questionnaires filled out by students and teachers, it can be said that animal recognition learning media based on food types and ecosystems that contain video material is equipped with audio, displays 3D animal objects with markers, then contains interestingly made quizzes. The results obtained from the User Acceptance Test (UAT) get results with a percentage of 96.7%. With these positive results, it is hoped that the use of AR for the learning of PAUD Al-Hidayah students can understand more interactive learning.

A favourable ecosystem for scientific translation projects: Strasbourg’s role in the production and transnational circulation of knowledge in the 1780s
Authors: Fischer Daniel
Published: December 2024

Strasbourg’s geographical and political position during the eighteenth century led to the longstanding assumption that the capital of Alsace naturally fostered the circulation of German and French ideas and knowledge. Throughout the century, many travellers flowed through this city on the Rhine, which was viewed as the Eastern gateway to France even though its population remained primarily German-speaking. This study reconstitutes Strasbourg’s total catalogue of 189 publications during the 1780s, enabling us to assess the provincial city’s role in producing and circulating knowledge on both sides of the Rhine and more widely in Europe leading up to the French Revolution. We examine evidence of the reasons for the large volume of scientific publications, including a surprising level of investment into German translations. Finally, we present the specific case of the translated works of Lavoisier and Ehrmann published in Strasbourg in 1787, revealing new details that indicate that the local publishing sector’s rationale went beyond geographical and linguistic opportunities.

The technology of extracting tungsten from technogenic waste is complex due to the presence of impurities such as iron, bismuth, and other minerals, which complicate the beneficiation process. This article explores the efficiency of the deep flotation method for tungsten extraction from technogenic waste. Research findings indicate that deep flotation is inefficient from both a technological and economic perspective. Challenges arose in selectively separating impurities during flotation, resulting in a lower-than-expected yield of tungsten. Therefore, the article suggests an alternative approach—a combination of gravity and flotation methods. This combined approach allows for effective management of impurities in technogenic waste, achieving high tungsten extraction efficiency and ensuring the environmental safety of the process.

Published: December 2024

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo discutir a relevância da forma de provimento
para o cargo de direção e o seu impacto na gestão democrática. De fato, sabe-se que apesar
de variadas formas de provimento do cargo, em aproximadamente 70% dos municípios
brasileiros se dá por simples nomeação, de acordo com o IBGE. Sob esta ótica, é possível que
tais nomeações se deem de forma arbitrária, sem estabelecer requisitos necessários para
exercer a função de direção, assim como, podem visar outros interesses, de cunho eleitoral ou
pessoal, que visam a reprodução da ideologia dominante. Com efeito, estas nomeações podem
comprometer a promoção da gestão democrática. Neste estudo, há uma pesquisa de caráter
bibliográfico, com metodologia exploratória, a partir de uma abordagem quantitativa. Os
teóricos norteadores deste trabalho são: Paro (2003), Sander (2007), Gadotti (2017), Lück
(2009), Althusser (1985), Bordieu (1992) e Vasconcelos (2019). A princípio, expõem-se neste
trabalho as atribuições do diretor escolar e competências necessárias para exercer esta função
complexa no âmbito educacional. Trata-se de um cargo de liderança e gerenciamento que lida
com variadas questões educacionais, pois a gestão escolar abrange aspectos administrativos,
financeiros, pedagógicas e jurídicos. Em seguida, discute-se as formas de provimento do
gestor escolar e o impacto que estas podem gerar no contexto da gestão democrática e na
permanência da hierarquia dominante. Desta forma, há a análise da forma de provimento do
gestor escolar e a sua repercussão no contexto da gestão democrática.
The Diagnostic Accuracy of Frozen Section Compared to Permanent Section: A Single Center Study in Nepal Mediciti Hospital

Published: December 2024

Frozen section plays a major role in the surgical management of patients with neoplastic and non-neoplastic disease. Since its introduction in the late 20th century, the use of frozen section has spectacularly increased. It provides the surgeon with important pathologic information while the patient is on the operating table. There are many indications for performing frozen section, including determination of the nature and extent of a lesion, evaluation of surgical margins and assessment of adequacy of tissue for diagnosis. This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of frozen sections over a 2-year period in a Department of Laboratory medicine and Pathology, Nepal Mediciti Hospital, Sainbu, Lalitpur, Nepal. It retrospectively reviewed frozen sections performed in the Pathology Department of Nepal Mediciti Hospital, Lalitpur, Nepal for 2 years. The results were compared to the permanent sections to evaluate diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and specificity, of frozen section test. Discordant cases were reassessed to find the reasons for discrepancy. It evaluated a total of N=100 frozen section specimens. In two specimens (2%) the diagnoses were deferred, of the remaining 98 specimens, four specimen (4.0%) were discordant and 94 specimen (94%) were concordant to permanent diagnoses. The overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the frozen section compared to permanent section (as gold standard) were 100 %, 96.6 %, 100 % and 96.6 % respectively. Among the 4 discordant diagnoses, two (2%) were due to sampling error and two (2 %) were due to interpretative errors. Adequate and accurate sampling is recommended and also interpretation error should be minimized to help reducing the rate of discordant cases. The results of this study also confirm that the accuracy of frozen section diagnosis in our institution compares well with internationally published data.
A Review on Occupational Health & Safety Implementation Protocols of the Mining & Petroleum Industries in Ghana
Authors: Badam Parmaak Justice
Published: December 2024

The mining and petroleum industries are some of the most highly risky places to work in, where workers are often exposed to a variety of physical, chemical, mechanical, biological, and psychosocial hazards. In today’s competitive corporate environment, business entities constantly have to deal with the increasingly evolving demands of accelerating product development and technological changes, staying ahead of competition with rival businesses, deregulation and demographic changes in target markets, and the obvious need to survive by implementing policies and programs to cope with the ever changing work environment. This study reviewed the implementation of occupational health and safety protocols in selected mining and petroleum companies in Ghana. The issue of a safe and conducive workplace environment has recently gained prominence because labor experts believe that occupational health and safety measures are necessary for the continuation of industrial production. Ghana started producing oil in commercial quantities in 2009 under the President Mills regime. Since then, the country has grown to become one of a significant oil producer in the continent, with the influx of heavy investments from several multinational oil and gas companies in the exploration and downstream petroleum sectors. Secondary data has been collect as current status of OHS implementation protocols in the mining and petroleum industries in Ghana. A comparative evaluation of OHS implementation in the oil and mining industries, develop an OHS blueprint and policy document in line with Global Best Practice for the Mining and Petroleum Industry in Ghana. As a result, research into accidents and injuries within Ghana’s mining and petroleum sectors has been limited, despite the industries’ longstanding recognition as a safety-critical domain.
« Cabine pressurisée, sérénité totale »
Authors: Castellitti Carolina
Published: December 2024

À partir d’une perspective phénoménologique qui considère la relation entre le corps, la perception et l’environnement, cet article analyse le sens du travail du personnel navigant commercial en tant que formateur d’une identité singulière. M’appuyant sur une enquête de terrain réalisée dans la ville de Rio de Janeiro (Brésil) avec d’anciens travailleurs de Varig, importante compagnie aérienne privée qui a cessé ses activités en 2006, je prends au sérieux l’expression fréquemment utilisée par eux selon laquelle « les gens qui volent sont différents des gens qui marchent ». L’analyse met en évidence le rôle de l’air comme élément physique et symbolique d’une manière d’habiter le monde à travers le « vol », avec la médiation de l’avion, un dispositif technique qui, malgré sa complexité, devient un espace quotidien de travail. Prendre ces éléments comme point de départ sert ici de coup d’envoi méthodologique et théorique pour considérer la singularité des sens et des pratiques où l’air, le vol et le ciel intègrent une culture environnementale dynamique et créative.
Ánforas de época romana republicana de procedencia subacuática del Museo de Cádiz
Authors: Blanco Arcos Francisco José
Published: December 2024

En los últimos años se han desarrollado diversas iniciativas de investigación sobre el entorno marítimo de la actual ciudad de Cádiz, entre las cuales destacan los proyectos de prospección desarrollados en La Caleta y bajos adyacentes (2008-2010), que han permitido estudiar un conjunto de yacimientos y objetos que se data desde época fenicia arcaica hasta más allá de la Tardía Antigüedad. Entre estas actividades se sitúa también un estudio sistemático de la documentación de archivo y de materiales inéditos de época antigua de diversa procedencia depositados en el Museo de Cádiz (2017-2019). Los trabajos en el museo han permitido documentar y analizar un significativo número de ítems entre los cuales las ánforas de datación republicana son uno de los grupos más significativos. Se presenta un avance de su estudio, como la identificación de varios ejemplares itálicos estampillados y la determinación de orígenes variados para estas producciones.
