Penglibatan Sukarelawan dan Pengurusan Risiko dalam Sukan di Malaysia

Abstract

Aktiviti sukarelawan kini tidak asing lagi dalam bidang sukan di Malaysia. Pelbagai program telah dianjurkan bagi menarik minat orang ramai menyertai aktiviti sukarelawan. Program sukan yang dianjurkan memerlukan khidmat bakti para sukarelawan yang ramai bagi memudahkan serta memastikan kelancaran sesuatu program. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis penglibatan sukarelawan dan menilai faktor utama penglibatan sukarelawan dalam program sukan negara serta mencadangkan pengurusan risiko terhadap program sukan negara. Seramai 375 orang sukarelawan bagi Sukan Asia Tenggara 2017 di Kuala Lumpur dipilih sebagai responden dalam penyelidikan ini. Kaedah soal selidik yang diubah suai daripada ‘Volunteer Function Inventory’ (VFI) kemudian dianalisis menggunakan perisian SPSS dan ujian korelasi telah digunakan dalam kajian ini. Hasil mendapati golongan belia iaitu peringkat umur 21 hingga 30 tahun lebih cenderung melibatkan diri dalam sukarelawan sukan manakala golongan yang mempunyai kerjaya lebih cenderung melibatkan diri dalam aktiviti sukarelawan. Faktor pemahaman merupakan faktor utama penglibatan sukarelawan dalam program sukarelawan negara dengan nilai min tertinggi iaitu 4.32. Ujian kolerasi menunjukkan hubungan antara faktor kefahaman dengan pengurusan risiko iaitu r =0.52. Selain itu, cadangan pengurusan risiko dalam penganjuran program sukan telah dihasilkan dalam memastikan kejohanan sukan yang bertaraf antarabangsa ini terhindar daripada kemalangan yang boleh menjejaskan kejohanan yang berlangsung. Justeru, temasyah sukan SEA merupakan kejohanan sukan yang berprestij tinggi, penglibatan sukarelawan dan pengurusan risiko kejohanan perlu dititikberatkan supaya kejohanan sukan dapat dilaksanakan dengan jayanya.

Abstract: Volunteer activities are now no stranger to sports in Malaysia. Various programs have been organized to attract people to participate as volunteers. Organized sports programs require the devotion of many volunteers to facilitate and ensure the program is smooth. In addition, sport risk management is important for all parties to ensure the sports tournament runs smoothly. This study aims to analyze the volunteer’s involvement in the national volunteer program and to evaluate the main factors of volunteer involvement as well as suggest risk management for the national sports program. 375 volunteers for the Southeast Asian Games 2017 in Kuala Lumpur were selected as the main respondents in this research. The questionnaire method modified from the 'Volunteer Function Inventory' (VFI) was then analyzed using SPSS software and correlation tests were used in this study. The results found that youth aged 21 to 30 years are more likely to engage in volunteer, while those who have a career are more likely involved in volunteer activities. The understanding factor is the main factor of volunteer’s involvement in the national volunteer program with the highest mean of 4.32. The correlation test shows the relationship between understanding factor and risk management which is r =0.52. In addition, risk management recommendations in the sports programs ensure that international sports tournament avoided accidents that could affect the ongoing tournament. Therefore, the SEA Games is a prestigious sports tournament, volunteers and sports risk management need to be emphasized so that the sports tournament can be implemented successfully.
