| Summary: | Background: an uncomfortable hot workplace may impact to its workers, such as
affecting their blood pressure, pulse, additional workload and exhaustion. Some
factors affect the exhaustion are physical work and workload. This study was
conducted at PT. Kereta Api UPT. Balai Yasa Yogyakarta which located on
Kusbini Street No. 1 Kecamatan Demangan Yogyakarta.
Study purpose: the purpose of this study was to determine effect of temperature
workplace, workload toward occupational exhaustion of workers of PT. Kereta
Api UPT. BalaiYasa Yogyakarta.
Study method: this is a cross sectional. The sample in this study was 43
respondents. The independent variable was hot workplace and workload while the
dependent variable was occupational exhaustion. The analysis used in this study
was Pearson�s Product moment to test the effect of hot workplace, workload
toward occupational exhaustion.
Study result: the testing result of sample analysis from Kolmogorov Smirnov
Test yielded that temperature workplace p=0,248, workload p=0,571 and
occupational exhaustion p=0,478, so, it is determined the three variables was
normally distributed. For test result of Pearson Moment Product, it yielded hot
workplace of value p=0.200 (p>0.05) which shown there no effect found between
temperature workplace with occupational exhaustion experienced by the workers
of PT. Kereta Api UPT. Balai Yasa Yogyakarta, while the workload was gained
value p=0.041. Since value p<0.05 it means existed effect of workload with
occupational exhaustion toward the workers of PT. Kereta Api UPT. Balai Yasa
Yogyakarta. The test result of linear regression of both variables resulted R
Square of 0.445. It shows the contribution value of workload toward increase of
occupational exhaustion of 44.5%, whereas the remained 55.5% caused by other
factors.
Conclusion: there existed a significant effect between workload with
occupational exhaustion of the workers at railway workshop of UPT. Balai Yasa
Yogyakarta. It was no found a significant effect between temperature workplace
toward occupation exhaustion, presumably due all workers of metal division of
PT. Kereta Api UPT. Balai Yasa Yogyakarta has worked for more than 5 years
which acclimated toward their occupational workplace.
