Abstract:
The objective of this work is the evaluation of threats in the field of safety, fire safety, quality and environment in the post-harvest treatment of grain, with an emphasis put on pre-cleaning and drying of grain. The paper describes the technology of pre-cleaning and drying of grain. Risks for individual machines were evaluated using a failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), which is used to evaluate the threats in terms of fire risk, occupational safety, the effect of machine on the quality of final product, and effect on the environment. We have proposed measures and solutions to eliminate or minimise the consequences of threats. Risk rates are evaluated before and after measures adopted. It can be stated based on the results that risk was successfully reduced to an acceptable level after adopting measures.

Abstract:
Many changes have been made in the healthcare practice environment. Understanding of quality practice environment in hemodialysis units has certain implications for maximizing outcomes for clients, nurses, and systems. Developing quality practice environments takes time and commitment to promote and support patients’ safety. Hence improving safety patient culture is vital in dialysis units because it requires for reducing risks for harm, errors of patients and delivering high quality of patients care. The Study aimed to determine the perception of nursing staff’ toward quality practice environment and patients’ safety at Hemodialysis units. Methodology, data collection was utilized a descriptive correlational design for this study, all nursing staff amounted to (n= 90) They are classified into: all head nurses n = 7,, and all nurses who have either diploma (n = 40) or baccalaureate degree (n = 43) who are affiliated to all hemodialysis units (n =7) at Ministry of Health ,Egypt. A package composed of two instruments was used, namely: Environment Scale-Nursing Work Index (PES-NWI) and Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSPSC). Results, the major findings indicated that there is a positive correlation significant among practice work environment and patient safety culture except for staffing and resource adequacy in all hemodialysis units of Ministry of Health Hospitals. Also, results point out that the organizational structure of the Ministry of Health Hospitals is characterized by unhealthy environment and unsafe climate that force the nursing staff to have low perception toward most of quality practice environment and patient safety culture factors. The study recommended that initiating a blame-free reporting system to prevent re-occurrence of problems and actions to eliminate them from the workplace by detecting, evaluating, preventing and treating safety work environment

Abstract:
Background Despite evidence suggesting higher quality and safer care in hospitals with comprehensive electronic health record (EHR) systems, factors related to advanced system usability remain largely unknown, particularly among nurses. Little empirical research has examined sociotechnical factors, such as the work environment, that may shape the relationship between advanced EHR adoption and quality of care. Objective The objective of this study was to examine the independent and joint effects of comprehensive EHR adoption and the hospital work environment on nurse reports of EHR usability and nurse-reported quality of care and safety. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of nurse and hospital survey data. Unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression models were used to assess the relationship between EHR adoption level, work environment, and a set of EHR usability and quality/safety outcomes. The sample included 12,377 nurses working in 353 hospitals. Results In fully adjusted models, comprehensive EHR adoption was associated with lower odds of nurses reporting poor usability outcomes, such as dissatisfaction with the system (odds ratio [OR]: 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.61–0.92). The work environment was associated with all usability outcomes with nurses in better environments being less likely to report negatively. Comprehensive EHRs (OR: 0.83; 95% CI: 0.71–0.96) and better work environments (OR: 0.47; 95% CI: 0.42–0.52) were associated with lower odds of nurses reporting fair/poor quality of care, while poor patient safety grade was associated with the work environment (OR: 0.50; 95% CI: 0.46–0.54), but not EHR adoption level. Conclusion Our findings suggest that adoption of a comprehensive EHR is associated with more positive usability ratings and higher quality of care. We also found that—independent of EHR adoption level—the hospital work environment plays a significant role in how nurses evaluate EHR usability and whether EHRs have their intended effects on improving quality and safety of care.

Abstract:
Implementing safety behavior in the oil and gas industries is still challenging, although fatal accidents often occur. This research aims to analyze how SHEQ talks, a Badak LNG program, can successfully prevent workers' work accidents. Using qualitative methods with a case study approach, the researchers interviewed several key persons in the SHEQ talk program, including the board of management, the SHEQ department's employees, and Badak LNG's employers. Inclusiveness is the main component in the SHEQ talks program. It leads to safety behavior among all Badak LNG's workers (interdependent stage). Unlike the usual behavior-based safety program, SHEQ talks encourage all employees to have good knowledge and skill of health and safety environments. Therefore, safety performance among the workers does not entirely depend on the OSH officers. Eliminating the superior and subordinate when conducting the safety talks are essential to build the safety culture among workers in the oil and gas industries.

Abstract:
The US healthcare delivery system is in a state of change. Medical science and technology are advancing at an unprecedented rate, while cost containment and productivity pressures on clinicians make the clinical environment less than ideal for training. Training is one of the vehicles for addressing new knowledge requirements and for enhancing human and system based performance. Yet the theoretical underpinnings and design aspects of training have been largely unrecognized and unexamined in health care. This paper first explores changes in the practice of medicine and the healthcare delivery environment. It then describes how healthcare training and education can benefit from findings in the behavioral and cognitive sciences. It describes the systems approach to training and explores the extent to which a systems approach can be applied to the clinical environment. Finally, the paper examines innovative training and education techniques that are already gaining acceptance in health care.

Abstract:
Background: Patient safety has been a concern over the past two decades. The value of nurses and their work environment in relation to patient safety has been acknowledged by studies and international organizations. This study aimed to examine the relationship between patient safety practices and the nursing work environment. Methods: In total, 570 registered nurses were invited from the inpatient units in public and private hospitals. Perceived patient safety was evaluated using the Overall Perceptions of Patient Safety subscale from the Hospital Survey of Patient Safety Culture (HSPSC). The nursing work environment was assessed using the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index (PES-NWI). Findings: Of the 350 of 570 (64.6%) nurses surveyed, 35.2% (125) reported positive levels of perceived patient safety. Staffing and resource adequacy, professional communication style, and nurses’ participation in hospital quality improvement activities were associated with higher levels of perceived patient safety. Conclusion/Application to Practice: This study provided empirical results about perceived patient safety culture in relation to nursing work environment. It is paramount to focus on specific dimensions of the nursing work environment, such as staffing and resource adequacy, nurses’ participation and advancement, and communication style to improve the quality of care provided to patients. Hospitals are considered one of the most hazardous places compared with industries. Policy makers would help reduce injuries, save resources, and build a culture of safety when taking into consideration the importance of the nursing work environment in relation to patient safety.

Abstract:
Abstract Since the release of the Institute of Medicine's report on resident hours and patient safety, there have been calls for enhanced institutional oversight of duty hour limits and of efforts to enhance the quality and safety of care in teaching hospitals. The ACGME has established the Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) program as a key component of the Next Accreditation System with the aim to promote safety and quality of care by focusing on 6 areas important to the safety and quality of care in teaching hospitals and the care residents will provide in a lifetime of practice after completion of training. The 6 areas encompass engagement of residents in patient safety, quality improvement and care transitions, promoting appropriate resident supervision, duty hour oversight and fatigue management, and enhancing professionalism. Over the coming 18 months the ACGME will develop, test, and fully implement this new program by conducting visits to the nearly 400 clinical sites of sponsoring institutions with two or more specialty or subspecialty programs. These site visits will provide an understanding of how the learning environment for the 116 000 current residents and fellows addresses the 6 areas important to safety and quality of care, and will generate baseline data on the status of these activities in accredited institutions. We expect that over time the CLER program will serve as a new source of formative feedback for teaching institutions, and generate national data that will guide performance improvement for United States graduate medical education.

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND Singapore’s status as a first world island city-state which relies chiefly on food imports to meet the demand for consumption presents unique challenges in terms of microbial food safety and quality. Despite the efforts of the Ministry of Health in Singapore, in conjunction with the Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore and the National Environment Agency actively collaborate together to promote safety in Singapore, foodborne diseases are still a major public health issue. OBJECTIVE The aim of the review was to summarize the various foodborne diseases reported in Singapore in the past few years as well as to give an account of all the currently available microbiological findings indicating safety and quality of poultry, vegetables, fruits, and seafood sold in Singapore.

Abstract:
Objectives Compliant surfaces beneath a casualty diminish the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in clinical environments. To examine this issue in a sporting environment, we assessed chest compression quality and rescuer exertion upon compliant sports safety matting. Methods Twenty-seven advanced life support providers volunteered (13 male/14 female; mass = 79.0 ± 12.5 kg; stature = 1.77 ± 0.09 m). Participants performed 5 × 2 min, randomized bouts of continuous chest compressions on a mannequin, upon five surfaces: solid floor; low-compliance matting; low-compliance matting with a backboard; high-compliance matting; high-compliance matting with a backboard. Measures included chest compression depth and rate, percentage of adequate compressions, and rescuer heart rate and perceived exertion. Results Chest compression depth and rate were significantly lower upon high-compliance matting relative to other surfaces (p<0.05). The percentage of adequate compressions (depth ≥50 mm) was lowest upon high-compliance matting (40 ± 39%) versus low-compliance matting (60 ± 36%) and low-compliance matting with a backboard (59 ± 39%). Perceived exertion was significantly greater upon high-compliance matting versus floor, low-compliance matting, and low-compliance matting with a backboard (p<0.05). Conclusion Providers of CPR should be alerted to the detrimental effects of compliant safety matting in a sporting environment and prepare to alter the targeted compression depth and rescuer rotation intervals accordingly.

Abstract:
<p>This study aims to evaluate the Quality of Work Environment (QWE) in Aircraft Maintenance Sector of Saudi Aerospace Engineering Industries (SAEI). It covers safety climate (safety, hazard, and injury), employee satisfaction about their jobs and employee satisfaction about management practices. For that purpose, 314 questionnaires were collected and analyzed. The study revealed that SAEI employees have neutral evaluations regarding safety climate in the organization and have neutral evaluations regarding their jobs at SAEI as well. On the other hand, the overall values statically indicate that SAEI employees are unsatisfied regarding SAEI management practices. In conclusion, SAEI employees are unsatisfied about the quality of work environment in general with overall median equal 2 and 95% of confidence. The majority of respondents (60.1%) were between unsatisfied and strongly unsatisfied regarding the QWE. Also, the study indicated that there were statistically significant differences in the employees’ evaluation regarding the QWE according to their job grades, job title, and their departments. These differences can be concluded as following; employees with higher grades were more satisfied with QWE at SAEI, managers, instructors, and auditors were more satisfied with QWE at SAEI and finally TQA employees were the most satisfied employees with QWE at SAEI while Hangar employees were the most unsatisfied. The study suggests some practical recommendations based on the outcomes of this study.</p>

Abstract:
In the article basic elements influencing the quality and safety of the chain are discussed. The conducted analysis clearly indicates that price ought not to be the only determinant to take into account when choosing a supplier - instead, the users of these products should first of all consider certificates and approvals provided with the product by its manufacturer.

Abstract:
Technological advances have reduced accident rates caused by machine-related errors, accidents that have occurred in individual and organizational errors are still continuing. Safety perceptions, attitudes and beliefs of people and their personality traits emerge safe or unsafe behaviors in the work environment. In addition, high congruence of employee characteristics and organizational characteristics supports the creation of a safe working environment. The purposes of this study were to examine the effect of airline employees’ person-organization fit, and safety consciousness on safety behavior and investigate the mediation role of safety climate on these effects. The data collected from planning, operations control, flight safety and quality employees of an airline operating in Turkey (N=178). Data were analyzed with the SPSS 22.0 program and factor, correlation and regression analyzes were performed to identify interrelationships with descriptive statistics. Findings show that person-organization fit, and safety consciousness had positive effects on safety climate and safety behavior; safety climate had full mediation role in the effect of person-organization fit on safety behavior; and had a partial mediation role in the effect of safety consciousness on safety behavior.

Abstract:
In numerous product lines, globalization of production has been accompanied by increasingly austere product quality and safety regulations. These regulations are particularly stringent in the food and beverage sectors and put enormous strain on producers from developing nations. This article examines a cooperative of sugarcane, sugar, and ethanol producers from Brazil that, when confronted with the challenge of new regulations, adopted three policies that encouraged its members to upgrade quality and safety standards, enabling them to compete successfully in a demanding business environment. I argue that the co-op’s success was due to (1) a new cost accounting methodology that monetized some of the differences in product quality, attenuating tensions among members; (2) a low-cost, high-powered system of regulatory incentives that empowered middle managers vis-à-vis top executives within regulated firms; and (3) external auditors who acted not as police officers or consultants but as conduits, reestablishing information flows and helping to create a business atmosphere conducive to productive change.
