"Pekerja wanita usia subur (WUS) sebagai sumber daya manusia utama di banyak industri, rawan terkena anemia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan status besi pekerja WUS yang anemia atau memiliki hemoglobin (Hb) rendah, yang bekerja di perusahaan pengalengan nanas dengan melakukan suplementasi zat besi. Penelitian ini dilakukan dua periode, menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap buta ganda. Subyek penelitian adalah pekerja WUS yang dibagi menjadi dua grup perlakuan suplemen, yakni grup-BF yang diberi zat besi dan asam folat dan grup-MVM yang diberi multivitamin dan mineral yang mengandung 15 macam vitamin dan mineral termasuk zat besi dan asam folat. Subyek penelitian pada periode-1 sebanyak 25 pekerja WUS sudah menikah (BF=13; MVM=12) dan periode-2 sebanyak 15 pekerja WUS belum menikah (BF=7; MVM=8). Suplementasi dilakukan tiga kali per minggu selama 10 minggu dengan pengawasan. Sesudah suplementasi tingkat Hb, hematokrit (Ht) dan serum feritin grup BF meningkat, sedangkan pada grup MVM ada yang menurun. Peningkatan Hb dan Ht pada yang sudah menikah lebih tinggi dibandingkan yang belum menikah. Namun, Hb tersebut turun saat suplementasi dilanjutkan tanpa pengawasan dan semakin turun saat tidak lagi diberi suplemen. Pemberian suplemen yang mengandung zat besi menjadi keharusan bagi pekerja WUS, karena mereka tidak mampu meningkatkan Hb-nya jika hanya mengandalkan dari makanan.

Female workers of childbearing age (WUS) as a major of human resources in many agribusiness exposed to anemia. This study aims to improve the iron status of anemic WUS workers with low hemoglobin (Hb) levels, who work in a pineapple agribusiness by iron supplementation. This study was conducted two periods, using a double-blind randomized trial design. Subjects were divided into two treatment groups supplements, namely IF that was given iron + folic acid and MVM that was given multi vitamin and mineral containing 15 different vitamins and minerals including iron and folic acid. The subjects of period-1 were 25 married WUS (IF=13, MVM=12) and of period-2 were 15 single WUS (BF=7, MVM=8). Supplementation performed three times weekly for 10 weeks. After supplementation, the levels of Hb, haematocrit (Hc) and serum ferritin of BFgroup increased, whereas there were declines in MVM-group. The increase in Hb and Hc in married WUS was higher than the single. However, their Hb was fallen down when supplementation was continued without supervision and getting down when not given the supplements anymore. Supplementation with iron is a must for WUS workers, because they are not able to increase their Hb if only rely on their food."

"Penelitian ini membahas peningkatan bunuh diri yang terjadi di kalangan pekerja perempuan Jepang yang terjadi tahun 2020 sampai 2021. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh situasi pandemi COVID-19 yang menimbulkan perubahan struktur sosial dan masalah sosial gender terhadap faktor- faktor yang menyebabkan risiko bunuh diri di kalangan perempuan Jepang. Teori interseksionalitas digunakan untuk mengkaji fenomena bunuh diri kalangan pekerja perempuan Jepang. Tesis ini menggunakan metode kualitatif bersifat studi literatur dengan menggunakan data resmi yang diterbitkan oleh lembaga pemerintah Jepang, buku, artikel jurnal, video dan catatan hasil wawancara dalam berita. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan masa pandemi COVID-19 menimbulkan kegelisahan semua masyarakat Jepang karena perubahan pola hidup secara drastis. Berbagai pembatasan dialami perempuan Jepang menyebabkan mereka menjalani banyak peran (multi roles) di satu ranah domestik. Selain itu, sistem patriarki Jepang yang telah mengakar dan bertahan di Jepang semakin membatasi ruang gerak perempuan di masa pandemi COVID-19 sehingga terjadi ketimpangan kekuasaan yang merugikan perempuan dan menimbulkan kekerasan yang berujung pada perilaku bunuh diri.

This study discusses the increase in suicide that occurred among Japanese female workers that occurred in 2020 to 2021. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic situation which caused changes in social structure and gender social problems on the factors that caused the risk of suicide Among Japanese women. The theory of intersectionality is used to examine the phenomenon of suicide among Japanese female workers. This thesis uses a qualitative method of literature study using official data published by Japanese government institutions, books, journal articles, videos, and notes on the results of interviews in the news. The results of the study show that the pandemic COVID-19 policy raises anxiety among the people of Japan due to a drastic change in lifestyle. Various restrictions experienced by Japanese women caused them to undergo many roles (multi roles) in a domestic domain. In addition, the Japanese patriarchal system that has been rooted and survived in Japan increasingly limits the space for women in the COVID-19 pandemic so that there is an imbalance in power that harms women and causes violence which results in suicidal behavior."

"ABSTRAKMakalah ini bertujuan untuk melihat bentuk, isi dan efektivitas wacana informatif berbahasa Arab dalam iklan tenaga kerja wanita Indonesia yang beredar di internet pada 2018. Diambilnya topik ini karena masih banyak dari iklan tersebut yang kurang informatif karena terlalu sederhana ataupun menggunakan bahasa lokal. Korpus penelitiannya adalah iklan berbahasa Arab pada beberapa portal khusus tenaga kerja dan juga media sosial. Adapun metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif analitik dengan mengumpulkan dan mencatat, kemudian dideskripsikan dan dianalisis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari sepuluh sampel iklan yang beredar, iklan tersebut memiliki berbagai macam model, mulai dari berbentuk satu baris hingga yang berbaris-baris, mulai dari teks hitam putih sampai yang menggunakan foto atau kartun berwarna, mulai dari bentuk seperti puisi sampai yang berbentuk eksposisi, mulai dari yang berisi informasi sederhana sampai yang lengkap, mulai dari yang dibuat oleh perseorangan sampai yang dibuat oleh agen. Jadi, secara keseluruhan dapat disimpulkan bahwa jika dilihat dari teori tentang iklan, maka ada iklan yang memang masih belum sesuai dengan kriteria umum periklanan dan ada juga yang sudah sesuai. Akan tetapi, itu merupakan hal yang umum, karena tampaknya iklan tersebut hanya ada di Negara Arab saja, dan kriterianya tentu harus disesuaikan dengan karakteristik bangsa Arab itu sendiri.

The Association of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with Repetitive Movement in the Wrist and Other Factors Among Female Workers in a Food Processing Factory of PT X Cikande.Scope : Workers of the production department in poultry processing factory have to work on conveyor line system which requires repetitive movement of the wrist with high frequencies for doing the job. Continuous repetitive movement will cause work related musculoskeletal disorders, where one of them is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). This study was conducted to identify the association between CTS and other related factors.

Methodology: The design of this study was cross sectional with comparison of high repetitive and low repetitive exposed group. The selected participants were 107 workers from cut up section and 45 workers from evisceration section. Data collection was conducted from April to May 2004. The data collection method used were guided interviews, observation and physical examination, including provocative tests. Room temperature was secondary data.

Results : The prevalence of CTS were 27 % (41/152) in the Slaughters House department, 32,7 % (351107) in the Cut up section and 13,3 % (6/45) from Evisceration section. Bivariate analyses showed that several risk factors were related to CTS such as Body Mass Index (BM], work unit, flexion > 45 degree and the frequency of repetitive movement. After conducting multivariate analyses, only two variables showed significant relationship with CTS, the frequency of repetitive movement (OR=2,42, 95%CI=1,57-3,74) and overweight ( BMI>25) ( OR=3,72,95 %Cl= 1,45-9,53).

Conclusion and Recommendation : Prevalence of CTS was found high among female poultry workers. It was concluded that high repetitive movement and overweight had a significant relationship with CTS, so that job rotation between these two sections is needed."
