Authors: Mohan Jayandran 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
Oil and Gas (O & G) sector is one of the most hazardous process industries in which the likelihood of both safety and health hazards is very high. Like other process industries, risk assessment, standard operating procedure, tool box talk, behavioral safety analysis and all other proactive accident control measures are going on. But still the accident keeps happening. The incident data clearly shows there is a need for re-engineering required in controls for Oil & gas sector.

Methods
The leading O & G drilling companies especially in Middle East Oman - 2022 incident data has been collected and the interview has been done with the respective contractors, site engineers and HSE officers. Based on these analysis, a spreadsheet has been prepared to understand the existing gaps and required improvement for the oil and gas sector

Results
Based on the analysis it is evident that rather than other hierarchy of control, more engineering based controls to be identified.

Discussion
The hierarchy of control has been applied in Safety Engineering to identify the effective control measures. The 2022 incident data shows more physical injuries and the incident investigation report says the following reasons: incompetency, non complaint and unsafe working environment.

Conclusion
The incident analysis indicates that there is need for more supervision, training requirements and controls over unsafe working environments required in oil and gas drilling companies.

Abstract

Introduction
Falls from height are one of the leading causes of occupational injuries in most countries. A way of protecting workers against falls from height is to choose personal fall arrest systems, which implies the wear of a safety harness. Following a fall arrest, motionless suspension in a full-body harness can be hazardous and lead to death due to suspension trauma syndrome, which has long been known. This paper investigates the perception of discomfort, the pressure exerted by the straps on the body and the evolution of physiological parameters in 10-minute motionless suspension.

Materials and Methods
For this study, 30 male and 30 female were suspended from the dorsal D-ring, in four different commercial harnesses (one X, one Y and two H configuration harnesses). During suspension, participants rated their perceived discomfort on a visual analog scale for different body regions every 2 minutes and physiological parameters were recorded continuously throughout the suspension. Pressures exerted by the straps were measured for a short period using pressure mats.

Results and discussion
The results show that H-configuration harnesses, which are very common in the construction industry and often the cheapest models, are perceived to be the least tolerable in suspension. Moreover, H-configuration harnesses lead to greater reduction in muscular blood oxygenation and greater increase in the heart rate, which could make this type of harness hazardous for prolonged motionless suspension. The Y-configuration harness seems to be the best performer in suspension. The X-configuration creates a constriction effect around the neck during motionless suspension, which causes a significant increase in heart rate and decrease in cerebral oximetry.

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
Fire is a perilous phenomenon that causes significant human and financial losses. Hospitals and medical centers are particularly prone to fires, with many occurring each year, making timely evacuation of patients, disabled individuals, and staff a critical measure. The purpose of this study was to simulate and analyze the emergency evacuation of individuals in a hospital in Shiraz.

Methods and Materials
The study was conducted in a hospital’s treatment building, which lacked emergency exits. Evacuation simulations were carried out in both fire and non-fire scenarios to examine the impact of smoke and combustion products on the time it took for individuals to evacuate. Version 6.5 of FDS + Evac software was utilized to simulate fire and evacuation.

Results
The emergency evacuation simulations revealed that under normal conditions (no fire), it took an average of 815 seconds to evacuate, and 295 individuals were evacuated during this period. During a fire, with the ventilation system on or off, 10 and 32 people, respectively, were unable to leave the building after 900 seconds.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the results of this study underscore the importance of ventilation systems in preventing smoke from reaching the floors, as well as the significance of having accessible emergency exits.

O-303 A SYSTEM SCIENCE PERSPECTIVE ON BURN-OUT: DEVELOPMENT OF AN EXPERT-BASED CAUSAL LOOP DIAGRAM
Authors: Barsties Lisa S , Van den Berg Saskia W , Leone Stephanie S , Nicolaou Mary , Van Oostrom Sandra H 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
A high prevalence of burn-out leads to reduced worker well-being, long-term absenteeism, and high costs for society. Determinants at different levels may affect burn-out in an interrelated and dynamic manner. This study aimed to apply a broader systems perspective by exploring and visualizing the complex system of determinants underlying the prevalence of burn-out.

Methods
During three group model building sessions with eight academic experts on workers’ mental health, a Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) was developed and relevant feedback loops were identified. Determinants of burn-out at the level of the context were considered: working and living conditions and societal developments. The modeling software Vensim was used to visualize the CLD.

Results
The CLD consists of 20 factors and depicts a central position of working conditions. Societal developments (e.g., access to mental health care, rougher social climate) were mostly located at the outside of the CLD. Three reinforcing feedback loops resulting in an increase of the prevalence of burn-out were identified in which a (very) high workload, imbalance between work and private life, and insufficient recovery time play an important role. Also, two balancing loops visualized the crucial role of functional support from supervisors to prevent burn-out among workers.

Discussion
Societal factors were less part of the feedback loops and therefore considered as drivers.

Conclusion
Applying a broader systems perspective, including determinants at different levels, offers new insights into dynamic feedback loops that contribute to the prevalence of burn-out. An intervention approach directed at different levels in the system is required in order to prevent burn-out.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
We would like to address the theme of PSR among entertainment short-term contractors and present our prevention strategy in France. The COVID-19 health crisis and the measures to curb the transmission of the virus have led to significant changes in the world of work. In some sectors, activity reduced or came to a halt while it increased in others. The PSR* have spared no professional sector, age group or gender. Regarding the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI), the toll has been heavy both economically and socially. The psychological impact for the players in this sector is underestimated or even ignored. Often seen as a world of glamour and glitter that includes many exciting, complementary professions, it is sometimes contrasting with a less dazzling backstage. The issues encountered in this environment are complex and include time management, work-life balance, strong competition, employability, ageism, job insecurity and image management in a 4.0 world. Our prevention strategy is multi-disciplinary and based on the identification and determination of threats specific to the sector. The aim of our occupational health actions is to design a series of jointly-constructed, multiparty approaches that range from prevention to the design of a working environment for a serene and sustainable organisation, by listening to our partners. “All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts […]” As You Like It, Shakespeare, 1623
P-458 PSYCHOSOCIAL SAFETY CLIMATE: DOES IT MATTER WHO AND WHEN YOU ASK?
Authors: Lang Jessica 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
Psychosocial Safety Climate (PSC) captures employee perceptions of an organization’s management of their psychological well-being and predicts work stressors and resources. This study investigates the influence of assessment content and leadership position on these perceptions.

Methods
We surveyed leaders in a German municipal administration using an online questionnaire. Participants were asked about their knowledge and the significance of various organizational measures for psychosocial health prevention. Using randomization, half of the participants reported on PSC before, while the other half reported after responding to the presented organizational measures.

Results
About one quarter of leaders participated, and 186 provided complete data for analysis out of 209 participants. The order of asking and leadership hierarchy did not significantly affect PSC ratings. There were no significant mean differences in PSC scores between before (Mean = 35.6, SD = 6.89) and after (Mean = 33.5, SD = 7.95) reporting. The PSC rating was also similar for lower leadership (Mean = 34.6, SD = 7.48) and higher leadership (Mean = 34.0, SD = 7.78). The four PSC subscales also showed non-significant differences. The overall PSC 12 Sum Score was 34.5.

Discussion/Conclusion
The PSC 12 measure appears relatively unaffected by external stimuli related to present psychosocial safety interventions. Like past research, also leadership level does not significantly impact PSC scores. According to the Australian benchmark, the studied workplace may pose a high risk for psychological health issues for employees. However, future research should explore the transferability of this benchmark to different cultures.

The commercial airline pilot is affected by work-related stress, in this case, is the risk of experiencing work stress related to the pandemic. During the COVID-19 Pandemic, this study aims to determine whether some factors influence stress among “X” airline pilots.

Method
The sampling technique uses non-probability sampling consecutive sampling. There are 97 respondents in this study. Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) Questionnaire was used in this study. In obtaining data from the results, this study used univariate and bivariate analyses using Chi-square test. This study has been approved by the Krida Wacana University ethical committee.

Result
94,8% respondents were reported not feeling stressed, and 5,2% respondents were reported with moderate stress. Female pilots experience work-related stress more frequently than male pilots, 50% and 44.9%, respectively. Age, flight hours experience, and working period had correlations with work stress (p=0.000, p=0.002, and p=0.000 respectively).

Discussion
Age, flight hours experience, and working period found as a significant contributor toward work-stress among pilots in Indonesia. The importance of stress management among pilots needs to be tackled due to the above factors. Airline’s company should manage flight hours and working periods properly to reduce stress among pilots.

Conclusion
This research’s result has found that stress contributors among pilots did not differ to the condition before the COVID-19 pandemic. The factors of age, flying hours experience, and working period had a positive effect on work stress during the pandemic.

Macedonia concerning workplace mental health in researchers. ReMO key guidelines are used to develop actions to improve researcher mental health in R.N. Macedonia.

Results
Despite raised awareness in recent years about workplace mental health and well-being, however the knowledge, attitudes, and practices about researcher mental health in R.N. Macedonia is still on a basic level. There is only occasional interest about this issue in policy makers, employers, workers, trade unions, and media. Specific actions with measurable outcomes have to be developed at community, institutional, and policy level. Open dialogue between stakeholders could be beneficial in systematic improvement of mental health of researchers. Strengthening of the Committee for Safety and Health at University level could help in the promotion of occupational safety and health in academia.

Conclusion
Occupational health and safety strategy at national level should include mental health and well-being of researchers as an emerging issue.

Authors: Elaoudi Yasmina , Manar Nadia , Bouri Hicham El , Deschamps Frédéric , Laraqui Chakib 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
Secondary school teachers (SST) are particularly affected by occupational stress and burnout because they are exposed to high psychosocial factors at work and organizational constraints related to difficult working conditions.

Methods
This survey aimed to assess the prevalence of BOS of SST and its relationship with sociodemographic and occupational parameters. This cross-sectional study involved a representative sample of 652SST. We used an individual questionnaire including socio-demographic and occupational parameters, the Karasek’s Job Content Questionnaire, and Maslach BO Inventory. BOS includes three dimensions: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and loss of self-efficacy. The positive diagnosis of BOS is retained if the scores of the three dimensions are abnormal (high for the first two and low for the third).

Results
625 people agreed to participate. The prevalence of job strain was 15.8%, isostrain 6.3 %, and sleep disorders 37.5%. 62.6% had a high emotional exhaustion, 16.3% high depersonalization, and 86.8% low personal accomplishment. 96,3% had at least one abnormal dimension of BOS:33.7% had one abnormal dimension, 55.8% two, and 6.7% three. There is no difference between men and womenThe prevalence of abnormal dimensions of BOS was significantly higher, in those living alone, and in those without regular physical or leisure activity.The multivariate logistic regression showed that job strain, isostrain, fatigue, sleep disorders, constituted a major risk factor of abnormal dimension of BOS.

Conclusion
SSTpresent a high risk of chronic stress and its consequences (BOS and chronic diseases). Health promotion and education actions must be carried out to sensitize the general population.

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Introduction
The aim of this survey was to assess the stress in secondary school teachers (SST) by analyzing its relationship with sociodemographic and professional characteristics, by evaluating work stressors, and by estimating psychosomatic symptoms.

Methods
This cross-sectional survey involved a representative sample of 1 182 SST. All participants had a regular activity for at least two years. We used an individual questionnaire inspired by those of the National Institute for Research and Security of France and of the Karasek’s Job Content Questionnaire.

Results
The prevalence of self-reported stress was 48.5%. The average age was significatively higher among stressed than non-stressed (38 ± 7.1 years old versus 32.4 ± 3.5 years; p&lt;0.005). The prevalence of stress was higher among men than women (50.9% versus 45.8%; p&lt;0.005). The prevalence of harmful habits was significantly higher in stressed than non-stressed individuals. The prevalence of psychosomatic symptoms was significatively higher among stressed than non-stressed: neurovegetative disorders (64,7% versus 53,5%), nervous tension (78,7% versus 40,6%), mood disorders (57,1% versus 36,1%), cognitive disorders (29,3% versus 16,7%) and sleep disorders (32,3% versus 16,1%). 27,2% had self- reported chronic pathologies (37,3% among stressed versus 17,4% non-stressed). Psychological demand was higher in stressed subjects, while decisional latitude and social support were lower. The SST’s main proposals were to increase salaries, reduce class sizes, improve teaching quality and teacher safety.

Conclusion
SST presents a high risk of chronic stress and its consequences on health. Health promotion and education initiatives should be carried out to raise awareness among the general population.
