Abstract
  • MSME Gatot Kaca is an MSME that is processing fish into crackers. In this cracker packaging activity, workers experience pain because of bad work posture. The purpose of this study is to design an ergonomic packaging table and chairs to reduce musculoskeletal disorders (MSD’s). NBM questionnaire used to find out which parts of the body are felt pain by workers. Comparing the risk value of work postures using the QEC and RULA method. The results showed the operators felt pain in the left and back body. From QEC work posture, the exposure value of 70.3% was obtained and from RULA a value of 7. That means the work posture is very risky and requires investigation and change as soon as possible. To overcome this, ergonomic table and chair are designed whose size has been adjusted to the dimensions of the worker and user needs using Anthropometry and Reverse Engineering Method.
