Transportation problems, which concerned in finding the minimum cost of transporting a single commodity from a given number of sources to a given number of destinations, are an integral part of the industrial system that has been around for a long time. The number of potential losses caused by transportation problems has made many parties take initiatives and efforts to solve those problems, usually by designing an optimal distribution model. The current study employs two methods named North West Corner (NWC) and Stepping Stone (SS) method in order to find distribution model with the most optimal costs for common good products. Through this research, the NWC method is utilized to generate initial model or solution, while the SS method is used afterward to find the optimal solution. According to it scheme, the result shows that through the NWC method there was cost reduction of $ 8,301, while the distribution model obtained from the Stepping Stone method resulted in a significant cost increased of $ 307,369. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of single method, namely NWC method, in this study provides much better results than using the combined NWC and Stepping Stone method.
The production process usually involves several processes that are divided into production lines. The processes in this production line affect the costs incurred by the company. From the analysis results, the costs arising from production line activities are very high. Therefore, the company strives to reduce production costs by paying attention to the aspects that result in the emergence of waste. The method used is by combining the process on the machining line. This study was conducted to find out the effect of combining process lines on production efficiency. The results of this study are expected to be an input in determining production planning in the enterprise. This study didn’t use sampling. From the results of the study, there was an increase in the daily production of gear A (0.86%) and gear B (1.12%). From this merger, the company was able to optimize manpower and cut production WIP storage areas.
Occupational health and safety is one of the most important issues in a company which is an important subject that has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Work safety management system is the effort shown to the elements in production (human, equipment, materials and work environment), so that peaceful production activities can be realized and produce products that do not endanger the safety and health of workers. This is due to the interaction of elements in the production system in the form of death, serious injury, human injury, property damage and cessation of process loss. Primary data collection is done by distributing questionnaires to employees to record hazardous actions and hazardous conditions that are the direct cause of accidents resulting in serious injury and property damage or endangering workers and employees. The overall value of hazardous actions is 37% and hazardous conditions 24% still have a small effect that triggers the occurrence. OSHA measurement values prove that accidents, loss of time and other losses can be analyzed with the results of FR and SR values.
Occupational health and safety is one of the necessary things in the industrial world. The problems that arose in the industrial era were the need for workers and increased productivity to be able to produce quality products. Health conditions and the availability of employee safety protections can affect work productivity. So that the safety and work safety culture in the workplace can be realized and can increase the safety performance index, an approach is implemented in the form of methods that can be applied to all organizations in the enterprise, one of which is behavior-based safety methods. The analysis of the data obtained shows that the factors that cause work accidents due to behavior are taken from the validity test, namely the factors of perception, communication and environment, because these three factors are very easily ignored by employees and company management. Environmental factors and personal protective equipment have no effect on work accidents as management always provides periodic education to its employees and enforces strict rules on the use of personal protective equipment. The magnitude of the influence of the variables studied in Behavior-Based safety in an effort to improve safe behavior was 79.7% and the remaining 20.3% was influenced by other unexamined items. The value of 79.7% consists of perception, communication and environment.
