RISK ANALYSIS OF INJURY AND WORKING PRESSURE USING LAMPREPLACEMENT TOOLS

Abstract

Lamp replacement is a work activity that is carried out manually using a chair
or using a lamp replacement tool. The tool used to replace the lamp is
deemed ineffective, which can lead to musculoskeletal complaints. Therefore
it is necessary to redesign the replacement lamp to suit the needs of the user.
The product proposed for lamp replacement design will be compared with
existing tools to measure the level of work speed and stress. The analysis
used to measure the level of work speed and stress is the Quick Exposure
Check (QEC). The results showed that the percentage of exposure level for
the old lamp replacement tool was 41% -59% so that further investigation
was needed by redesigning the lamp replacement tool. Thus the use of
replacement tools for old lamps when used is ineffective. The exposure level
for a new lamp replacement is in the range of 20% -35%, meaning that it is
accepted and recommended for use. In this case, the proposed lamp
replacement tool is quite effective to use.
