Hubungan antara komitmen keselamatan pengurusan, latihan keselamatan dan motivasi keselamatan dengan prestasi keselamatan dalam kalangan staf Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, Selangor
Get PDFSafety performance plays a crucial role in reducing injury and accident rates in the workplace. The main objective of this study is to examine the relationship between safety management commitment, safety training, safety motivation, and safety performance. This study was conducted at Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, Selangor, involving 137 respondents using a questionnaire survey. A quantitative research approach was employed, and the population technique was used. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27 was utilized to determine the relationships between safety management commitment, safety training, safety motivation, and safety performance. Descriptive statistics, reliability tests, Pearson correlation, and normality tests were employed to analyze the data. Data analyzed from this study indicated that safety management commitment, safety training, and safety motivation have a significant correlation with safety performance. The findings of this study are discussed, along with implications and suggestions for further research. Therefore, this study benefits University of Tunku Abdul Rahman, Selangor in improving the safety performance in the organization
Tahap keberkesanan pengurusan penyenggaraan fasiliti bangunan di sektor awam Malaysia
Get PDFThe purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of maintenance management of public facilities in Malaysia. As unfit workplaces for staff will give a negative impact to the government’s delivery system and nation development, effective maintenance of public sector facilities is therefore very important. The first objective of the study is to identify a framework of measurement for the effectiveness of maintenance management of public facilities in Malaysia. Second objective is to evaluate a status of the effectiveness of maintenance management of public facilities in Malaysia. From literature review, the author has identified the key parameters and elements to measure the effectiveness of maintenance management such as maintenance policy deployment & organization, maintenance approach, job planning & scheduling, information management and computerize maintenance management system (CMMS), spare part management, human resource management, contracting out management, financial aspect and continuous improvement. In this study, data were collected through random interviews and questionnaire surveys from various categories of public departments in Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur such as offices, schools, army camps and etc. Data analysis was carried out by applying both statistical descriptive and inferential techniques such as Summarize frequencies, Crosstabulation and Pearson Correlation methods. The output from the data analysis was computed through SPSS software program and Microsoft Excel 2003. The findings show that compliance aspects of main elements for government buildings in Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur is still lacking where majority (98%) of the samples do not achieve an excellence level of the effective maintenance indicators
Effect of preharvest treatment using jasmonic acid and methyl jasmonate on the physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of red-fleshed dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus L.)
Get PDFThis study investigated the effect of exogenous plant growth regulators (PGR), namely
jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA), on the physicochemical properties of flesh
and peels of red-fleshed dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus). The fruit was sprayed with 100
and 1,000 ppm of JA and MeJA at 15 and 22 days of anthesis and harvested after 35 days.
Then, the flesh and peels were analyzed for total soluble solids (TSS), total betacyanins,
betanin, total phenolics (TP), total flavonoids (TF), and color characteristics. The fruit peels
contained significantly higher (p<0.05) TP and antioxidant activities compared to flesh. No
significant difference was detected between the variables in the peels, except for significantly
higher (p<0.05) of total betacyanins (~295.6 and ~299.9 mg/100 g) and TP (~614.1 and 566.1
mg GAE/100 g) were recorded in control and 100 ppm MeJA, respectively. In the flesh, 1,000
ppm MeJA-treated fruit possessed the highest total betacyanins (~139.2 mg/100 g), betanin
(~356.0 mg/g), TP (~244.9 mg GAE/100 g), TF (~329.0 mg CE/100 g), Trolox equivalent
antioxidant capacity (TEAC) (63.2 µmol TE/g) and reducing power (~21.5 µmol TE/g).
Overall, 1,000 ppm MeJA was more effective
in enhancing the accumulation of bioactive
compounds and antioxidant activities in the
flesh of red-fleshed dragon fruit compared to
other PGR treatments
