520 |a Manufacturing sector is one of the highest risk industries contributing to the development of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). These problems have attracted much attention in recent years and is becoming more and more wide-spread. The source of concern is in most industrialized countries. The phenomenon of WMSDs must be treated very seriously as it can have a considerable social-economic impact. The study is conducted at Meyer Burger (MB) Sdn Bhd in Malaysia where its general manufacturing activities involve cleaning, loading and unloading, turning process, grooving process, measuring process, collecting data and packing activities. Different employees are exposed to risk factors depending on their job and task. The objectives of this research are to identify the critical activities that affect to the musculoskeletal disorder among MB employees by observation and evaluation of the critical activities, to perform the analysis work posture and to propose and improve posture and workplace design at MB Sdn Bhd. The data for this study are collected via observation and discomfort survey to the MB employees. Other informal data such as experience-posture with photos are been taken during their task. While further analysis based on RULA and REBA are implemented by entering the scores according to the initial degree of body position. Lastly, RULA and REBA tables on the form are then used to compile the risk factor variables, generating a single score that represents the optimum solution of the correct working posture for MB employee. In addition, the finding of the study will provide as useful information and reference to the potential researchers, especially in the manufacturing industry. Nevertheless, employer must take serious action to implementing effective improvements in ergonomics in the workplace in future such by expanding education and training programs to assist employees and employers in understanding and utilizing the range possible workplace designed to reduce work-related musculoskeletal disorders. This may indirectly help to optimize human efficiency, effectiveness, health, safety, and well-being within the context of system performance.
