This study evaluated occupational health and safety prevention and control technologies (OHS-PCTs) within the scope of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology-2 in the context of preventing occupational accidents and diseases and supporting safe behavior changes. Methods. The data collected from this study using OHS-PCT tools, which included 607 employees, were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, item analyses, correlation analyses, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis and mediation methods. Results. The findings revealed that emotional intelligence (EQ) partially mediated the effects of the sub-dimensions of the OHS-PCT tool acceptance and use models, such as performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, hedonic motivation, price value and habituation, on behavioral intention. The effective adoption and use of OHS-PCT tools in reducing workplace risks depended on their technical features and employees' attitudes, intentions and behaviors. Conclusions. The study reveals the role of EQ, which interacts with psychological and emotional processes in the workplace, in enhancing OHS-PCT acceptance and safety performance. This study fills an important gap in the existing literature on the role of EQ in adopting OHS-PCT to prevent occupational accidents and diseases. This provides a new and holistic perspective to this field.","PeriodicalId":47704,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"658-672"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145507788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Playing a wind instrument requires activation of the orofacial musculature. There is a relationship between the temporomandibular joint, the cervical musculature and the posture of the head. Few musicians report receiving specific information about oral health related to instrumental practice. This study aimed to analyse the effects of a preventive exercise programme on posture, range of motion, myofascial trigger points, muscle activation and craniocervical pain in wind players. Methods. Participants were university woodwind and brass performance students. The experimental group (14 females and 15 males aged 21.4 ± 1.7 years) performed an exercise programme aimed at improving the mobility and musculature of the cervical spine and temporomandibular joint. The control group (11 females and 9 males aged 23.7 ± 4.9 years) received no intervention. Both groups underwent a physical assessment and questionnaire before and after the 12-week intervention. Results. The experimental group experienced increased sagittal head angle and cervical flexion-extension mobility and decreased their cervical pain and trapezius activation at rest. In addition, the prevalence of pain in the last month as well as neck pain decreased. Conclusions.

This study introduces a cutting-edge approach to enhance safety protection through the innovative structural design of anti-impact cushion airbag fabrics, with significant implications for the clothing industry and sports safety. Methods. A comprehensive analysis of 36 distinct airbag structures was proposed, systematically varying chamber dimensions, spacing, initial air pressure and fabric types to optimize impact resistance. Results. Reduced chamber size amplifies energy absorption and dispersion, enhancing fabrics' cushioning efficiency. Increased chamber spacing correlates with decreased strain rate, suggesting enhanced structural integrity. Higher initial air pressure within airbags enhances cushioning capacity, achieving a minimum maximum strain of 93.32% at 28 kPa. Furthermore, polyvinyl chloride mesh outperforms nylon (thermoplastic polyurethane-coated) fabric in cushioning, exhibiting a thicker final thickness and faster strain rate under increasing external forces. The critical impact of chamber side length and fabric type on the mean maximum strain was pinpointed. The optimal configuration of a 20-mm chamber side length and 10-mm spacing was identified as providing the most effective cushioning performance, with maximum stress peak value differences of 2.71% at 371.0 kPa and 4.31% at 405.6 kPa.

Fatigue Monitoring Tools (FMTs) are one strategy employed to monitor and mitigate effects of fatigue in occupational settings. In ambulance services, these tools often involve simple, validated, rapid self-assessment instruments. This study reports on the frequency of FMT completion by paramedics, identifies their attitudes and perceptions towards these tools and examines how prevalent fatigue education is among paramedics. Methods. The study was a cross-sectional, online survey using validated instruments and open-ended questions which were analysed via descriptive statistics and content analysis. Paramedics were recruited through college membership, social media and study flyers. Results. Of the 223 participants, nearly all (85.0%) were found to infrequently use FMTs, with 76.8% reporting no FMT completion in the last 30 days. Non-completion was due to poor managerial response, poor fatigue safety culture, competing priorities at the start of a shift and perception the tool is not fit for purpose. Half of all participants had received fatigue education, but 79.4% felt they would benefit from further training. Conclusion. This study demonstrates low utilization rates of FMTs amongst paramedics due to varying, potentially preventable, organizational factors. Integration of fatigue education and streamlined fatigue management processes could promote fatigue safety culture within the paramedical setting.","PeriodicalId":47704,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"528-534"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145076418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Self-reports boast extensive industrial implementations attributable to simplicity and higher applicability than other ergonomic assessment methods. Especially, small-scale industries and non-routine work analyses, amidst financial and technical constraints, rely largely on self-reports. However, self-reports exhibit low reliability. Existing reliability enhancement research is confined within the feedback phase, overlooking potential variabilities inherent in additional elements of the assessment process. This article aims to enhance reliability with an exhaustive variability exploration throughout the self-report assessment framework, developing targeted control measures. Methods. Self-report ergonomic assessment of assembly-disassembly tasks was conducted with 80 participants leveraging a 5-point unipolar Likert scale. Variability sources were identified through statistical hypothesis testing involving Kruskal-Wallis, Wilcoxon signed-rank and paired t tests. Modes of variability occurrence were elucidated through post-hoc analyses including Dunn's test and qualitative analysis. Targeted variability control measures were derived through qualitative causal inferences. Results. Four major reliability influencing factors and their modes of occurrence were identified. Response scales designed incorporating variability control measures corresponding to each of the identified factors showed an increase in Krippendorff's α reliability coefficients (from 0.67 < α < 0.87 to α > 0.98). Conclusion. The proposed approach holistically mitigates variability sources throughout the assessment process, facilitating reliable results without detriment to simplicity of implementation.","PeriodicalId":47704,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics","volume":" ","pages":"440-461"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145369073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to assess migraine prevalence among healthcare workers, identify work-related productivity loss and determine the need for a migraine-friendly workplace. Methods. An online survey was conducted among employees from 18 hospitals in a healthcare group, using a three-question ID-migraine test for diagnosis. Data collection was conducted between October and November 2023. The survey collected sociodemographic data, migraine characteristics, most bothersome symptoms, migraine disability assessment scale (MIDAS) scores, and work productivity and activity impairment (WPAI) data. The survey also inquired about workplace factors that worsen migraines. Results. The study included 666 participants, 366 (54.9%) diagnosed with migraine. Participants experienced a mean of 7.44 (SD 6.06) headache days per month, with 51.9% reporting severe headache intensity. Severe MIDAS scores were found in 47% (n = 172). WPAI scores were mean (SD) 4.71% (11.07) for absenteeism, 50.97% (25.53) for presenteeism, 52.24% (25.89) for overall work productivity loss and 55.07% (27.16) for non-work-related activity impairment. The most bothersome symptom was photophobia (43.2%). Common workplace migraine triggers included lighting conditions (79.5%), inadequate rest environments (70.4%) and prolonged screen exposure (69.6%). Conclusions.

The acquired signals underwent pre-processing to minimize noise and artefacts, followed by extraction of key features, including time-domain HRV indices and GSR conductance levels. These features were classified using a random forest algorithm, selected for robustness and accuracy in high-dimensional data contexts. The system discriminates fatigued from non-fatigued states in real time and delivers multimodal alerts to promote timely rest.

As social competition intensifies and 'involution' (a state of inefficient competition) rises in China, job satisfaction (JS) has become a key indicator of workers' quality of life. Methods. Using data from the China General Social Survey (CGSS) 2021, a sample of 1152 employed individuals were analyzed. Multiple linear regression and structural equation modeling (SEM) tested the direct and indirect relationships. Heterogeneity analyses were conducted across gender, household economic status and region. Results. Physical exercise (PE) demonstrated a significant positive direct effect on JS (β = 0.119, p < 0.01). Significant indirect effects were found through social justice perception (β = 0.014, 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.004, 0.033]), happiness (β = 0.046, 95% CI [0.023, 0.081]) and their chain-mediating pathway (β = 0.010, 95% CI [0.003, 0.020]). The total indirect effect accounted for 37.37% of the total effect. Heterogeneity tests revealed the impact was more pronounced among female workers, those with medium household economic status and residents in the eastern region. Conclusions. PE directly enhances JS and indirectly improves it by fostering social justice perception and increasing happiness.
