| dc.description.abstract | As the most widespread method of waste management worldwide, municipal solid waste (MSW)
landfills have different technology standards in developed and developing countries. Unfortunately, many
occupational diseases and health impacts are associated with garbage picking. Therefore, this research
aims to explore the factors related to the work accident by waste pickers at the MSW landfill in Eks
Karesidenan Besuki, East Java, Indonesia. The research design used was cross-sectional. The construct
validity was tested using Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). In
addition, a cross-sectional quantitative study was used to measure 154 waste pickers. The hypothesis was
tested, and a risk factor work accident model was developed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).
The data that has been collected is operated through the IBM® SPSS AMOS version 23.0 program. The
results from this study provided information related to landfill management and its impact on the
environment and health, especially on work accidents experienced by waste pickers at the MSW landfill
in Eks Karesidenan Besuki, Indonesia. The findings of this study confirm that factors related to
occupational accidents are workload factors (p = 0.046), individual factors (p = 0.043), and personal
protection equipment (PPE) (p = 0.001). The strength of this research is the use of the structural equation
model. SEM is a set of statistical techniques that allow the simultaneous testing of a complex set of
relationships. This research also produces a model. The model generated from the application shows five
covariances that can be additional research. | en_US |
