ERGONOMIC AnthropometriBiomechanicphysiologyPsychology

Forceful Exertions Penggunaan daya yang banyak – Inflammation of tendons, nerves, joints – Contributing factors Type of grip Weight of object Body posture Type and duration of the task

Repetitive Motion (kerja berulang kali) – Stress on muscles and tendons – Contributing factors Duration and speed of repetitious movement Number of muscles involved Required force – Raising and lowering the arm over and over again

Awkward or Static Postures (Postur badan yang tidak sesuai atau statik) Stress on muscles and tendons Contributing factors ○ Reaching overhead ○ Force the body must maintain to hold the position ○ Holding fixed positions (static loading) Lifting while twisting, reaching, or turning

1. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), or median neuropathy at the wrist, is a medical condition in which the median nerve is compressed at the wrist, leading to paresthesias, numbness and muscle weakness in the hand. This is due to repetitive and forceful movements

2. Whole Body vibration Whole Body exposure to vibration results from vehicles such as forklifts, cranes, trucks, buses subways and aircraft. High or prolonged exposure to whole body vibration can affect the skeletal muscles and cause low- back pain

3. vibration syndrome (HAVS) The hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) also named as 'white finger'. It may also cause permanent numbness of fingers. It is caused by working with vibrating tools, usually over a number of years. If you stop working with vibrating tools it may prevent mild symptoms from getting worse
