“…To minimise the impact on driving tasks, all movements of the seats introduced into the seat are slow, smooth, and minimal [8]. The workers can work comfortably, and their movements can be optimised in a brick workstation with a table for making bricks and a new table [9]. Also, there's a chair that workers can use to rest [9].…”

Physical activities related to work activities in production operators are jobs that need attention—operator activity on a CV. Pinus Bag’s Specialist engaged in convection, especially in the embroidery process, is done using a machine; the design will be sent from the computer to the embroidery machine monitor. The operator on duty would set the fabric to be embroidered, thread the needle, frequently change the thread, and correct the twisted thread. Meanwhile, the risk level of the embroidery workers has not been evaluated, and no unique chairs have been designed for it. Then, this study will assess the risk level of employees working in the embroidery department and create ergonomic chairs that are comfortable, durable, and robust. The risk level of workers is assessed using REBA. It uses anthropometric data from 2 workers who work in the embroidery section at CV. Pinus Bag’s Specialist, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The anthropometric data come from buttocks-popliteal length (seat length), popliteal height (chair height), hip width in the sitting position (chair base width), and side shoulder width (chair back width). And shoulder height in the sitting position (backrest height). After that, the chair is designed with the help of the application. The study indicates that most of the work activities in the embroidery process require corrective action. In addition, the chair design used for the embroidery process is adjustable, comfortable, durable, and strong. The seat height is adjustable with an operator and an embroidery table. Ultimately, the embroidered chair reduced work risk from medium to work postures with low work risk.

A design table for printing bricks and a redesigned wood powder table enable the workers to work with a comfortable work posture, and their movement can be optimized in a manual brick workstation (Siska, Saputra, & Candra, 2019). There is also available chair used by the worker to take a rest (Siska et al, 2019).…”

One of essential production activities is grinding process. This process mainly involves the constant activity of eroding a surface to be smoother or more evenly, cutting a workpiece, creating profiles like angles and arches, sharpening a cutting tool, and finishing a final product. Meanwhile, there is no study evaluating the risk levels of workers working on grinding, and there is no unique chair specifically designed for the process. Therefore, this study aims to assess the risk levels of a grinding worker and to propose the design of an ergonomic chair that is adjustable, comfortable, durable, and keen to be used. The risk levels of the grinding workers were evaluated using REBA, while the ergonomic chair design was based on anthropometric data taken from 4 grinding workers in Bantul, Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The researchers selected a buttock-popliteal length (seat depth), lower leg length (popliteal height) and hip breadth sitting as anthropometric measures to make a chair design for the grinding operations. After that, the existing adjustable chair designs were also considered and evaluated to get better adjustable-ergonomic chair design for the grinding operations. The results show that it is important that the stakeholders improve most of the grinding operations of the workers, especially by using an ergonomic chair design for grinding operation that is adjustable, comfortable, durable, and reliable. The chair height can be adjusted from 361-414 mm to adapt with the users, and the variation in product height aims to prevent bending on the back. Finally, the grinding chair can reduce the risk level from the high and medium level to the low-risk levels of working postures.
