This study aims to assess workers’ perception of occupational and environmental risks and hazards using the psychometric paradigm. For this purpose, data were collected using survey questionnaires from 360 mineworkers recruited from mineral and sand mines. Respondents were asked to evaluate eight occupational and environmental risks and hazards on nine commonly used risk characteristics. The principal component analysis revealed that two components, “Dreaded” and “Unknown”, explained 73% percent of the total variance in workers’ risk perception. The results also showed that the risk of develop

To reduce harm caused by occupational health risks of construction workers exposed to working environments, especially those for interior decoration, it is crucial for them to actively recognize and prevent these risks. Therefore, how to improve their occupational health risks perception and regulate their coping behaviors should be of great concern. However, most prior studies target construction worker safety, and little research focuses on risk analysis from the psychological level of workers. Hence, construction workers’ occupational health risk perception level and coping behavior level i

Poor waste management has characterized Ibadan’s modern and historical identity. As a consequence, residents of Ibadan (indigenes) hold diverse views about the city's image, while non-indigenes label it "filthy" and "dirty". These perceptions, spatial and cultural, are deep rooted, intertwining with the political and cultural plane of Nigerian society. A distinction between “self” and “others” is seen to mark a discourse and counter discourse in the perception of health risks associated with domestic waste in the Ibadan.

Abstract:

The activities of health professionals foresee the constant contact and handling of chemical agents. Therefore, knowledge about chemical risk is essential for personal safety both in the work environment and in the teaching environment. This research aimed to understand the perception of students in the health area about the risks related to the presence of chemicals in their study and/or work environment. This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach, carried out in a private institution of Higher Education (HEI) in the city of Brasília (Brazil), with students from biomedicine, bio

Abstract:

The management of industrial waste is critical to safeguarding worker health, particularly in sectors such as manufacturing, chemical processing, and mining where exposure to hazardous materials is prevalent. Despite technological progress and the existence of regulatory frameworks, workers continue to face risks associated with waste hazards, often influenced by social and cultural factors. This study adopts a sociological approach to examine how social norms, organizational culture, power dynamics, and resource limitations shape risk awareness, compliance behaviors, and policy enforcement.

Abstract:

Substantial literature indicates that genders differ in terms of risk perception and values regarding wildlife management. Lack of equal stakeholder representation is also documented, which can also impact the effectiveness of human-wildlife conflict resolution interventions and education and outreach efforts. This paper investigates gender differences in perceptions about risks and potential adverse impacts on production, health, environment, safety, and population management posed by wild pigs. A survey was used to collect data from a random sample of adult residents (N = 1221) in Louisiana.

Abstract:

Background: Menstrual Hygiene Management stands as a critical health concern for girls entering reproductive age on a global scale. This transition often induces fear and anxiety due to inadequate knowledge about menstruation and a lack of resources to comprehend bodily changes. Notably, school-aged girls in marginalized communities face formidable barriers to MHM, given the insufficient facilities, supplies, and awareness in educational institutions.

Abstract:

Abstract Risk perception and risk responses of Greek mussel farmers are important for understanding their risk behavior and the likely success of different risk mitigation strategies. This allows policy makers and actuarial companies to decide what risk management products to offer to address specific types of risks. Results from an empirical survey showed that ex-farm prices and health/disability status of farmers are perceived as the most important sources of risk. Risk management decisions were strongly influenced by the attitudes of mussel farmers rather than their socioeconomic status or

Animal manure, in particular,is a livestock waste that harbors enteric microorganisms which are potentially pathogenic to humans. The objectives of the study were therefore (i) to shed light on the management practices of manure among cattle and poultry farmers (manure producers)and carrot and lettuce growers (manure end-users)and any associated health risks and (ii) to determine the prevalence of human pathogens (diarrheagenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Listeria monoc

The work environment is known to contain psychosocial threats such as stressors that cause work stress in employees. Even though it seems that office workers do not need a lot of energy to work, they are vulnerable to stressors such as high quantitative and qualitative job demands. Apart from work stress, work stress can be influenced by differences in individual employee characteristics. Risk perception is the way an individual or group views and assesses the risks that may be faced in a particular situation.
