Abstract

Planning the work system design must be well designed because it is related to worker safety. If the safety of workers is disturbed, the production process will be problematic and can result in losses for the company. The use of macroergonomics is applied to optimize the work system. This research was conducted based on the problems of workstation that often threaten the safety of workers, with the aim of research to improve work systems in manufacturing companies. This research was identified using Macroergonomics Analysis and Design (MEAD), which consists of 9 steps related to the design, analysis, and evaluation of work systems. The data used is based on observation data from Interviews, Questionnaires, and Nordic Body Maps. The results obtained based on MEAD stage 5, from 12 variances processed using QFD, the highest score is generated by the variance "distance between the machine and human positions". The results of the RULA assessments are within 2 score ranges, consisting of a score in 5-7, and REBA assessments consisting of a score in 11-15. The result of Jack found that the resulting PEI for proposed is 1.26, which means that it is still within safe limits.
