Abstract

The brick industry has the potential to create a source of pollution in the form of dust which is harmful to the environment and workers health from the burning process. This study aims to determine the risk factors and analyze the relationship between dust exposure and symptoms of respiratory disorder in workers. This study used the total sampling technique to choose a sample of 75 participants for an observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The results showed that the average total dust particulate levels at 13 points was 1748.47 µg/Nm3 and the average inhaled dust content in 75 respondents of 4.56 mg/m3. The results of the analysis showed that the variables associated with symptoms of respiratory disorder were inhaled dust levels (p=0.023), working period (p=0.040), length of exposure (p=0.032), and use of personal protective equipment (p=0.015). Workers in the brick sector in Tegowanuh Sub-District may have respiratory symptoms more frequently depending on their exposure to amounts of inhaled dust, working period, exposure duration, and use of personal protective equipment. During the work process, it is advised to use personal protective equipment as a mask to prevent the onset of respiratory problems.
