The objective of this study was to reveal RULA method applications in terms of the knowledge, country, year and journal categories. The search was performed using the “Web of Science Core Collection”. The period from 1993 to April 2019 was selected. Eight hundred nine results were obtained, of which 226 were used. The largest number of publications was determined to be in the fields of industry and health and social assistance, which coincides with the OWAS and Standardized Nordic Questionnaire methods. By country, the USA stands out for its greater number of research studies and categories that are encompassed. By date, 2016 was the year when more studies were carried out, again coinciding with the Standardized Nordic Questionnaire. By journal, “Work—A Journal of Prevention Assessment and Rehabilitation” is highlighted, as it is for the REBA method as well. It was concluded that RULA can be applied to workers in different fields, usually in combination with other methods, while technological advancement provides benefits for its application.

“…The identification of the possible areas of improvement at a new workstation minimizes awkward stances and risk of WMSD among the workers [37]. The ergonomic redesign of work system would mitigate the issues of high physical exertion; WMSD and low productivity, physiological and psychophysical stress [38][39][40]. From the postural analysis, RULA score is increasing as the increasing human height justifies that the current vertical height of thresher is smaller which further recommends increasing the height to reduce discomfort and WMSDs.…”

This paper presents the Upper Limb analysis of Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WRMSDs) among Transformer industry worker using DELMIA Software. This health issue can have a long-term impact on the quality and productivity of production. Therefore, this study is to evaluate the risk level of industrial workers in the assembly of transformer industry using the DELMIA V5R20 software with RULA evaluation. DELMIA V5R20 used to reconstructed working posture and then evaluated with RULA. Result from RULA analysis, find awkward postures were identified to be high risk. Based on RULA observation, the workstation score in action level 3 with grand score mean (6.2), SD (0.42) which is required further investigation and change soon the procedure or workstation design. Finding show, RULA assessment able to detect the risk posture and further improvement should conducted to avoid impact of discomfort and health compilation among worker.
