Abstract

This project is conducted in one of the manufacturing company at Muar, Johor namely VTech Communication (M) Sdn. Bhd. VTech is the worldwide pioneer in electronic learning products and the world’s biggest maker of cordless telephones. It gives exceedingly looked for after contract manufactures services also, sub-con the products of Pioneer Technology Sdn. Bhd. Now, in assembling ventures field the opposition are progressively extreme and more contender attempt won the core of their clients. Henceforth, the demand of the product increment and the organization need to satisfy the demand. The organization should create more product than usual by following the demand pattern. In the same time, the welfare and health of the workers ought to be considered. Factors of workstation design and workers posture should take into consideration to raise the profitability and in the meantime secure the workers from any peril, injuries and medical issue, such as, Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD). The main purpose of this study is to analyse the working posture and design ergonomic workstation in assembly process. Working posture and workstation design have been selected in this study because both are important in order to reduce the risk factors of MSD and raise the productivity in term of labour and production productivity. With regard to improve and redesign the workstation, Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) Analysis in DELMIA software is used to analyse the current workstation design and the operator posture. Productivity calculation have been used to analyse and justify the current and productivity improvement. Hence, Takt time been used for validation of operators’ posture and improvement of workstation design. RULA scores of working posture improved and the productivity increased after the redesigning of workstation
