Abstract

Along with the high intensity of computer use, the risk of MSDs is getting higher. Computer working has three risk factors, such as repetition, static force and awkward posture. A preventive action to minimize the risk is to conduct an office ergonomics assessment. Results of the assessment will be the basis of further precautions. On this research, Musculoskeletal Injuries Reduction Tool for Health and Safety Office (MIRTH Office) was used for the assessment. In this questionnaire there were three parts, namely general information, conformity assessment and complaint survey. Physical environment data also would be collected on this research. Data processing was carried out, among others, the identification of the problem, the problem of grouping and processing of a complaint survey. The results showed there were four groups of problems, among other issues management work stations, the physical environment, work facilities and breaks. The survey results indicate that most of the complaints of the respondents had experienced discomfort in the eye, back and waist. This results suggests the need for ergonomics intervention as early as possible, to prevent the risk of work musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Ergonomics intervention can be done with adjustment facility and working conditions, as well as the provision of related training ergonomics.
