USULAN PERANCANGAN MATERIAL HANDLING YANG ERGONOMIS BAGI OPERATOR LOADING SAYURAN BUNCIS DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN METODE RASIONAL (STUDI KASUS DI PT. ABO FARM CIWIDEY)

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) atau gangguan otot rangka merupakan kerusakan pada otot, saraf, tendon, ligamen, persendian, kartilago, dan discus invertebralis. Penyebab utama terjadinya MSDs adalah postur tubuh yang salah. Postur tubuh adalah posisi bagian dari tubuh yang berhubungan dengan bagian tubuh lain yang dihubungkan oleh sudut sambungan. PT ABO FARM merupakan sebuah perusahaan yang bergerak dibidang pertanian dimana memfokuskan bisnisnya pada ekspor sayuran khususnya sayuran buncis yang berada pada kawasan desa Nengkelan, kecamatan Ciwidey, kabupaten Bandung. Salah satu kegiatan pada PT ABO FARM yaitu kegiatan loading sayuran buncis dipengumpul dengan menggunakan karung. Karung yang diangkat memiliki dimensi 96 x 43 x 36 cm dengan kapasistas sebesar 55 kg, padahal batas kapasitas yang direkomendasikan oleh NIOSH adalah sebesar 23 kg. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian postur kerja operator yang sedang melakukan handling material dengan menggunakan REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) diperoleh skor assessment sebesar 12. Nilai ini mengindikasikan bahwa postur kerja berada dalam posisi yang berbahaya sehingga diperlukan perbaikan saat ini juga. Maka dari itu, untuk melakukan perbaikan postur kerja maka pertama kali perlu dilakukan perbaikan pada material handling eksisting. Metode rasional merupakan suatu metode pendekatan yang sistematis. Metode ini banyak digunakan pada tahapan perancangan sebab memiliki tahapan yang jelas, sehingga dapat memberikan hasil rancangan dan produk akhir yang berkualitas. Setelah dilakukan design perancangan material handling, maka diperoleh skor pengangkatan sayuran buncis sebesar 2, sehingga diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa produktivitas penggunaan material handling usulan meningkat sebesar 83 persen.

Background: The automotive industry is heavily affected by sick leaves caused by the handling of loads and using postures that produce musculoskeletal disorders. Research is needed to analyse their causes and find possible solutions to eliminate or mitigate these risks. Objective: Our objective was to analyse the level of musculoskeletal risk in the different work tasks performed by truck and bus mechanics. Our intention is also to analyse whether postural training and feedback can help reduce risk. Methods: The rapid entire body assessment (REBA) was used to assess the postures performed by 35 mechanics from eight branches throughout Spain. The participants were subsequently divided randomly into two groups (experimental group and control group). The experimental group (EG) was given training and feedback on their postures and the control group (CG) was not offered any type of intervention. A few months after the initial assessment, their postural load in the usual tasks was re-evaluated. Results: An overall average REBA Score: 10.49 ± 1.33. The main risk was found in the trunk and arms with sustained above-the-head postures. EG’s second results are significantly improved compared to the first (p = 0.026 *). Conclusions: These jobs have a high-risk level of musculoskeletal disorders. The course of action presented with postural training and feedback has shown satisfactory results. Nevertheless, given the size of the sample, further research will be needed to delve deeper into this possibility as a future line of intervention.
