판매직 작업자의 작업 및 작업자세 분석

This study was aiming to examine work time. frequency, work environment, and postures of retail grocery store workers to evaluate the risk of musculoskeletal disorders. An ergonomic evaluation was conducted using job analysis and posture analysis. The four most time-consuming tasks were inspecting (27.4%), arranging (21.4%), cutting (17.6%), and displaying (15.6%). The height and length of the shelves evaluated in the field was inappropriate for workers. The most common posture was a standing posture with neutral back, and bent head, right upper arm, lower arms, and hands. Finally, this paper concluded that ‘arranging,’ ‘cutting,’ and ‘displaying’ seemed more stressful than other operations. The result of the ergonomic evaluation would contribute to design a better workspace in ergonomics.
