“…Therefore, if you want to intervene to improve the implementation of farmer activities by plowing the fields by using a hand tractor, the intervention must be directed at matters relating to the main task factors, work equipment, and the local micro climate. Ergonomic intervention on equipment or work systems and work environment can increase work productivity [12], increase work motivation [13], reduce skeletal muscle complaints and general fatigue [14], [15], so that in general it can improve the quality of life of workers.…”

Indonesia is an agricultural country. Agricultural land still extends throughout the archipelago. In modern times, there are many agricultural lands that have been done with machine tools, like the rice paddy hand tractor. Hand tractors are widely used in rural or inland rice fields. Its function is to plow the land or to loosen paddy fields before planting rice. In Bali the agricultural sector is also the basis of the economy in addition to the tourism sector and small industry. Rice fields in the area of Bali in the processing of many land use hand tractors. It should also be noted that although machine tools are designed to provide convenience for farmers, on the other hand it also has a negative influence on farmers as its users. One of the effects is that this machine makes a loud noise, causes vibration, and heavy besides the work is actually done under the intense direct sunlight. For this reason an observational study was carried out on 20 farmers or field workers who had used hand tractors in 5 regencies in Bali. We aim to evaluate the workload, through the measurement of pulse, ECPT (extra calorie due to peripheral temperature), ECPM (extra calorie due to peripheral metabolism), engine vibration, noise, wind speed, ambient temperature and humidity. The results showed that the workload of farmers was classified as heavy, ECPT> ECPM, an increase in muscle complaints and general fatigue in farmers. For this reason, an ergonomic intervention is needed for farmers cultivating rice fields in Tabanan Regency. Because ECPT> ECPM, in the ergonomics intervention, the environment influences such as noise, vibration, machine weight, solar heat must be kept as small as possible so as to reduce the workload of farmers.

“…Scholars have conducted analyses and studies on mother- and baby-friendly designs pertaining to breastfeeding chairs in maternity rooms. In a study on the breastfeeding process and posture, Sutapa et al examined mothers' breastfeeding posture and embraced an ergonomic design to enhance user comfort and stability during use [ 11 ], whereas Santiana et al optimised the size of the breastfeeding chair through ergonomics in response to mothers' weariness and soreness during breastfeeding [ 12 ]. Ivana and Filip created the Heer Bench as part of a study on the privacy requirements of breastfeeding mothers and infants.…”
