“…Wilson (2019) stated that the study of mental workload is one of important variables in psychology, performance rating and ergonomics. It is directly related to a worker's ability to perceive information, make decisions and reaction time and reflex (Indrawati et al, 2018). A well-thought workload management that capitalizes the employees' capability and recognizes their limitations could create a significant contribution to their productivity and efficiency (Bernseneva, et al, 2014).…”

This study shows the assessment of mental workload for jeepney drivers in Tanay, Rizal. This aims to observe the bottleneck and evaluate jeepney drivers' circumstances that affect their mental workload and identify the factors influencing the mental workload of the jeepney drivers while on duty. The researchers applied Slovin's Formula to get the correct sample size appropriate for the study. The mental workload of the jeepney drivers was assessed through the use of NASA-TLX (National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index) with six subscales such as mental demand, physical demand, temporal demand, performance, effort, and frustration. The six-step measurements in NASA TLX were also used in this study, i.e., weighting, provision rating, scoring, weighted workload (WWL), weighted workload score, and scoring interpretation. In accordance with the gathered data, the research shows that the indicator physical demand (PD), with a score of 351.46, which is in the very high category on the scale, is the most dominant factor among all the other indicators, and frustration level, with a score of 98.33, will be the least contributor factor among the remaining five indicators. Furthermore, the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used by the researchers to compare the means of two or more independent variables and to see if there is statistical evidence that the related population means differ significantly. Findings conclude that physical demand is the most prominent among all the indicators and the leading contributor to the mental workload of the jeepney drivers that drive trips along the Tanay-Siliuan route.

Accidents and occupational diseases occur frequently, especially in the manufacturing industry. Workers also have psychological burdens in the industrial era 4.0 as indicated by the increase in cases of stress experienced when interacting with machines. These concerns led this study to reduce the psychological and social negative impacts on workers interacting with machines. This was achieved through a systematic literature review using the PRISMA stages to comprehensively determine the burden experienced by workers and their impact. It was discovered from the 14 articles that meet the search criteria that the psychological and social conditions of workers are very bad mainly due to the application of technology in the Industry 4.0 era. This was caused by eight factors which include (1) workload exceeding capacity, (2) high concentration and cognitive activity demanded at work, (3) increased cognitive load, (4) anxiety about their ability to use technology, (5) work becoming increasingly complex, (6) worried that their position will be replaced by technology, (7) inability to operate technology, and (8) reduced social interaction. It was recommended that the impact be reduced by managing the causative burdens using two main approaches which include the company and the individual worker affected.

Introduction: PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap is a national oil and gas industry that has the largest refinery in Southeast Asia that manages raw materials for other refinery units in Indonesia to be reprocessed into fuel. The size of the refinery can illustrate the complexity of the system run by this unit. The HSE Unit in this company has a great responsibility to maintain the worker safety in the refinery. It is necessary to measure mental workload on HSE workers. This is because if the mental workload is not monitored, it can cause fatality, in this case, work accidents as a result of lack of supervision from HSE workers and mental PAK related to HSE workers resulting in excessive mental workload or property loss as an outcome of excessive mental workload. So, it is important to portray the HSE mental workload because of its responsibility to secure the health, safety and environmental issues. The purpose of this study was to describe the heavy mental workload on PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap. Method: This research was a quantitative descriptive designed study. Data were obtained by conducting interviews and using the NASA-tlx questionnaire on 71 respondents. Results: As many as 35 respondents had heavy mental workloads and 31 respondents had very heavy mental workloads. Conclusion: HSE workers at PT. Pertamina RU IV Cilacap has a heavy mental workload and even tends to be very heavy.Keywords: mental workload, NASA-tlx, oil and gas industry
