The application of ergonomics to improve work productivity
Abstract
Ergonomics in the workplace is an aspect that must be considered, because it has potential hazards such as work position, inappropriate body posture when doing work, design of work tools, workplaces that are not in accordance with labor anthropometry, and lifting loads that exceed work capacity. By implementing ergonomics in the workplace, a safe and comfortable work system, work environment, and work equipment will be created for all workers. So that workers can avoid injury or accidents while working, but it can also avoid occupational diseases. Therefore, work facilities must be designed ergonomically so that it has an impact on increasing work productivity.
