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.

Manual Material Handling (MMH) duringmaintenance activities poses strain to employees and at times it results in injuries. This type of work entails lifting, bending and twisting which can cause great strain to the human body if done improperly. A paradigm shift has taken place in Ergonomics from the narrow to a wide approach dealing with physiological, psychological, technological and organizational aspects of human work environment. This paper analyses the MMH hazards during the replacement of jaw bits in Electrically Operated Tong (EOT) crane in Hot Rolling Mill. Ergonomics risk factors were estimated using Rapid Entire Body Assessment risk assessment (REBA) tool. Based on the analysis, suitable engineering improvement called Lift - Assist Device was developed to reduce extreme range of motion while lifting, moving and inserting and found to be satisfactory.

In doing a job manually such as moving, lifting a certain material needs to be evaluated to minimize the risk of work accidents. The research that will be conducted is the evaluation of manual material handling on the removal and removal of thiners. The purpose of this study was to determine the application of work biomechanics in minimizing the risk of spinal cord injury and providing improvement in work activities. The methods used in this research are Nordic Body Map, NIOSH, Rapid Entire Body Assessment, L5 / S1 (Fc) Force and Energy Consumptions. The results of this study were found that several parts of the workers' body muscles were injured, such as the neck, left and right shoulders, arms and wrists, back and waist. The RWL and Li values ​​after repairs where is RWL exceeded the Load Constant value of 20 kg, and the Li value <1 (no risk). Then the work category level which was originally light-moderate work changed to light work. Furthermore, the original REBA score got a score of 5 to 3 (level 1). And the results of the compressive force against L5 / S1 have values ​​of Fc <AL and Fc < MPL.

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.
