Occupational diseases are one of the major health problems related to workplace hazards. However,... more Occupational diseases are one of the major health problems related to workplace hazards. However, the epidemiological data for this problem is scarce especially among Small and Medium Industry (SMI) workers. These workers are vulnerable to occupational health problem due to lack of knowledge and implementation of health and safety in the workplace. In Malaysia, most of the SMI workers have limited coverage for basic occupational health services which may worsen their health. Thus, this article aims to provide a review on the burden of occupational health problems among them. The electronic and library searches were used to extract the information from both published and unpublished articles that were not limited to any year of publication until 2017. One hundred and ninety-six published articles and 198 unpublished articles were retrieved from the database. Only 19 published articles and 25 unpublished articles met the eligibility criteria. Prevalence data of occupational diseases/p...

In Malaysia, although the Children and Young Persons Act (Employment) 1966 prohibits the children to be employed, previous studies proved that there are high rate of working children in certain states in Malaysia. It is believed that thousands of working children in Malaysia to be in an environment which is potentially harmful to their physical, mental, emotional, and social development. To identify the types and instances of child abuse for the working children, a study has been conducted to 454 working children in four states in Malaysia. Based on data analysis, it is found that more than half (63%) of the working children have been emotionally abuse, 27% physically abused and at least 10% have been sexually abused. Majority of them are not happy with their current job and are regretful for not attending school. This represents their basic necessities to have proper education and they should not expose to work at this early age. This research contributes to increase the awareness of public and government to take care of the need of children basically on the issue of child abuse for working children.

These objectives are achieved by reusing software artefacts. The reuse insensitive software development approaches, such as component based software development (CBSD) and software product lines (SPL) development, make use of reusable software assets. The use of open source software (OSS) is common in the software industry, especially in CBSD. However, recent research suggests the use of OSS in SPL. In this paper the results of a mixed method study are presented. The study focuses on identifying the factors affecting reusability of software in a reuse intensive software development environment. The first part of the study is based on interviews with experts and professionals working with OSS in a reuse intensive environment. The next part describes a survey is conducted to assess the importance of the factors. The procedures followed and results obtained of the both research activities are presented.
