Ergonomics is important in our daily lives, but not many of attention on it. We cannot run from problems in the ergonomics in undergoing daily activities. We are not aware that we are sitting on a chair that is too low, the tables are too high, too close to the computer, too heavy to carry goods and others. Consequently in the long run we get sick and our long term illness and difficult to cure because it requires great care as an example requires surgery. This project studies and proposes ergonomics improvement in one of the Small & Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The main objectives of this project are to identify common ergonomics issues/ problem in SME and also to implement low cost ergonomics improvement for SME (selected company). RULA, REBA and NIOSH Lifting Equation is the primary method to identify ergonomics risk. From this method, the score of RULA and REBA has been identified. A few process needed to be improved after RULA, REBA and NIOSH Lifting Equation has been calculated. To improve the ergonomics problem, the trolley and small bench is designed and fabricated to help workers to work in good postural condition and also comfortable with their task. 2014-01-27T08:45:55Z 2014-01-27T08:45:55Z 2010 Learning Object http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/31523 en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) School of Manufacturing Engineering
