Profil Gejala Stres Kerja pada Para Pekerja Manufaktur Kimia

Abstract

Occupational stress is a significant issue in occupational health and safety, affecting employee well-being, productivity, and overall health. The purpose of this study was to describe the level of occupational stress among workers in a chemical manufacturing company. This descriptive quantitative study involved 72 chemical manufacturing workers. Data were collected through the Stress Diagnostic Survey (SDS) and the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20), which were then analyzed descriptively using frequencies and proportions. The analysis showed that most workers experienced mild to moderate levels of occupational stress, with the dimensions of occupational stress analyzed including role ambiguity, role conflict, quantitative and qualitative overload, concerns about career development, and responsibility towards others. Symptoms of stress varied from anxiety and difficulty sleeping to depression and anxiety disorders. Furthermore, it can be concluded that stress symptoms in chemical manufacturing workers still need attention, even though the majority are in the no stress and mild stress categories.
