The Implementation of Occupational Health and Safety Concepts in Hospitals by Nurses: A Literature Review
Keywords:
Hospital, Nurses, Occupational Health and SafetyAbstract
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is an effort aimed at ensuring the physical and mental integrity and well-being of workers, along with their work and culture, to achieve a prosperous society. The implementation of OHS in hospitals is influenced by three factors: predisposing, enabling, reinforcing, and core-care. The predisposing factor, which includes knowledge, attitude, beliefs, and values, is the most significant in affecting OHS in hospitals, with beliefs being the most influential indicator. In contrast, reinforcing and core-care factors have a less dominant impact on the health and safety of nurses in providing patient care. The enabling factor has a relationship with OHS implementation in hospitals, with regulations being the most influential indicator. This study aims to analyze the application of the OHS concept in hospitals by nurses. A quantitative research method was employed, utilizing data from researchers in Indonesia. These sources include credible journals and articles obtained through electronic databases such as Google Scholar, with journals selected from the 2012-2020 volumes providing full-text access. This study concludes that the implementation of OSH in hospitals can increase nurses' awareness and compliance with OSH procedures in reducing the risk of occupational accidents and injuries to improve the quality of health services, reduce stress and fatigue and also increase nurses' job satisfaction. Conclusion The augmentation of nurses' awareness and adherence to OSH protocols yields significant reductions in occupational injuries, accidents, and stress, thereby enhancing healthcare quality and occupational satisfaction.
