Abstract

Musculoskeletal Disorders is serious issue on manufacturing industries due to low awareness of the right working procedure. This study is to find ways to enhance the ergonomics awareness in manufacturing Industry. The project discuss about the technique for the worker to do their job in manufacturing. The project focuses to analyze working posture and low back pain by using working posture evaluation using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) method. This project will be evaluated, examine and recommend a new skill/technique of machine handling as solution to improve current working postures. A work position that not follow right procedure will instantly cause fatigue to the body and will lead to lower productivity and efficiency. At manufacturing company, a lot of work position not following ergonomic aspects at work area which the worker wrongly lift the heavy machine and put a burden on his body.
