Severities of musculoskeletal diseases (MSDs) have been recognized at the regular work such as normal manufacturing by statistics data presented from Government
This paper describes a practical ergonomic approach for the normal chemical manufacturing industry that occupies the high rate of work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD) in Korea,
Typical work processes within a manufacturing operation were surveyed to determine the presence of risk factor associated with musculoskeletal disorders.
We use interviews, document analysis, RULA postural analysis to identify and quantify ergonomic risk factors that workers may be exposed to in the course of their normal work duties.
Some ergonomics actions were performed to solve the problems identified in the risk factor analysis.
The ergonomic solutions developed in this study could be applied to other sectors of industry that share common features of work with similar industry.
