“…The total score is obtained based on assessing the working posture image (Thamrin et al, 2021b). REBA is adopted to analyze the postural effect during handling load by body parts, evaluate activity by static and dynamic position, evaluate body parts neck, trunk, upper & lower body parts, and determine the level of risk injury (Haekal et al, 2020). The Rapid Entire Body Assessment has the main advantage and limitations in its method.…”

This research is about the observation of workers transporting sacks in a traditional market. The worker complained about pain in many body parts like the shoulders, waist, and arms, which are presented in the results of the Nordic Body Map questionnaire. This problem can be solved by massaging the body section to reduce musculoskeletal disorders. Because it is often get massaged, it makes the completion time of sack transport become longer. Work posture must be improved because too much pain piles up over long periods and can impact condition health and decrease productivity. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the working posture while doing manual handling. Evaluate work posture using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and Manual Handling Assessment Chart (MAC Tool). As a result, work posture and manual handling have a higher level of risk of injury, so we need to investigate and implement change. The level of risk must be reduced to at least medium risk. Using auxiliaries can improve work posture, reduce health risks, reduce load sacks, and increase work productivity. The recommended outcome is adding a skid box to improve the value of REBA and manual material handling by providing a hand trolley cart.

CV Tirta Mineral merupakan perusahaan distributor air mineral cara memindahkan galon masih menggunakan tenaga manual atau biasa disebut manual material handling (MMH). Postur tubuh pada saat bekerja yang kurang tepat berpotensi mengakibatkan terjadinya cedera otot atau cedera sistem muskuloskeletal yang disebut Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). Penelitian ini untuk mengetahui gangguan postur tubuh yang terjadi pada pekerja maka dipergunakan metode REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment). Metode ini digunakan untuk mengukur aktivitas pekerjaan yang bersifat manual. Pengukuran dilakukan terhadap pekerja yang melakukan proses pengangkatan galon air mineral di salah satu perusahaan UMKM di daerah Cileungsi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa postur kerja yang analisis mempunyai level resiko yang tinggi, yaitu skor 8 sampai 10, nilai tersebut sangat beresiko menyebabkan cedera yang berarti perlu adanya perbaikan segera. Perbaikan yang dilakukan berupa usulan alat bantu bagi pekerja berupa troli, diharapkan dengan troli tersebut mampu menghindari resiko terjadinya cedera serta memperbaiki postur kerja.

“…REBA assesses only some of the mentioned risk factors, consisting of awkward posture, load/force, coupling, and repetitive and static activities [ 20 ]. Also, several assessments are required for different tasks of one person [ 21 ]. Moreover, REBA can overestimate the risk of MSDs in the employees.…”

Background Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) technique is one of the tools developed for predicting the risk of musculoskeletal disorders based on the effective risk factors. This method has several limitations. The present study was aimed to develop the Modified Rapid Entire Body Assessment (MOREBA) method to more accurately predict the risk of musculoskeletal disorders. Materials This cross-sectional study was performed on 300 male workers of a steel factory with a variety of job tasks in Iran. Then, the information related to the various physical risk factors was extracted through observation of their duties and conversation with them. Also, the subjects were asked to complete the Persian version of Cornell musculoskeletal discomfort questionnaires (CMDQ). Then, a theoretical model was drawn in AMOS software. Computed coefficients were used to develop the MOREBA equation. In the end, the final scores were categorized by ROC curves, and the validation of the novel method was investigated using linear regression analysis. Results The parameters evaluated in the MOREBA method included contact stress, rapid and sudden movement, throwing motion, hand-arm vibration, whole-body vibration, temperature, and work-rest cycle in addition to the parameters of the REBA method, including awkward posture, coupling, force, load, static activity, and repetitive activity. The results showed that the strain produced by the physical risk factors with the total effect coefficient of 0.783 could significantly affect the musculoskeletal symptoms. The computed coefficients of the risk factors were applied to develop a novel index. The final score of the MOREBA method was categorized into four levels by optimal cut-off points of 12.37, 16.51, and 24.35. Based on the results, the MOREBA and REBA methods could justify 67 and 55% of the variations of musculoskeletal symptoms, respectively. Conclusions The results revealed that modifications conducted in the REBA method were effective, and the MOREBA method can provide a more accurate prediction of the risk of musculoskeletal disorders.
