Background To protect employees against the hazards they may be exposed to during work, employers must provide preventive occupational safety and health (OSH) in international and national legislation. Employers can provide these services by their firm or by third parties. Structures created outside the workplace, within the scope of the private sector, are called joint health and safety units (JHSUs). The number of studies examining the effectiveness and adequacy of JHSUs is limited. Material and Methods This study experimentally and hypothetically reveals the effectiveness level of JHSUs in providing OSH by conducting an extensive field study with a survey of 381 health and safety professionals and developing an Occupational Safety and Health Services Effectiveness Scale. Moreover, it compares those who receive the service from JHSUs and those who receive the service from the workplace, and the effectiveness level of JHSUs is evaluated. Results The fit index as a result of confirmatory factor analysis with the scale is at an acceptable level with χ²/df = 3.18, RMSEA = 0.076, TLI = 0.89, and CFI = 0.91. Cronbach’s α values of the factors are at a high level of reliability with PMCE = 0.949, OSHA = 0.927, OSHCM = 0.875, OSHEC = 0.869, OSHSQ = 0.877, OSHSE = 0.852. Conclusions The effectiveness of JHSUs in OSH services differs from the effectiveness achieved by internally assigning an occupational safety expert. The Student’s t-test accepts all hypotheses H1–H6 regarding the developed scale and that there is a significant difference between the external and internal groups in all factors.

Introduction and aim. Despite critical role of nurses in managing medication, public perspectives of the role nurses play in rational drug use is still unclear. The study aimed to asess the impact of the “HEALTHgain” game, an educational tool, on enhancing individual comprehension of proper medication usage and their perceptions of the significance of the contributions of nurses in society. Material and methods. This pretest-post-test, randomized control study took place between May and November 2022 in Turkey. Two-hundred and thirty seven individuals aged 18 years and above were recruited. Results. The “HEALTHgain” game had a noteworthy impact on the knowledge of rational drug usage (F(1)=45.739, p<0.001) and attitudes of society towards a nurse’s role in rational drug use between the baseline and end measurements after 14-day of playing the game (F(1)=283.434, p<0.001). Morover, there were a significant improvement in both intervention and control group knowledge level of rational drug use between the initial and final assessments after a two-week period of game play, though it had not been presented in any table (t=-3.824, p<0.001 for control group; t=-35.492, p<0.001 for intervention group). Conclusion. The study recommends that enhancing the game through contributions from various discipline
