“…Activities carried out by pre-testing for the last 6 months, the last 1 month, and the last 1 week. This study also answers the findings of Velasco et al [14] and Wibowo et al [20] namely reducing muscle complaints requires work facilities, namely the chair design that we have designed using the integration of Nordic body maps, RULA, anthropometry and visualization of chair products with their dimensions and advantages.…”

“…The decisions used by the researchers and the approval of respondents include POH dimensions of 44 cm, POL dimensions of 58 cm, HW dimensions of 40 cm, SBH dimensions of 40.5 cm, SSH dimensions of 60 cm and SEH dimensions of 20 cm. Table 2, apart from being the basis for designing chairs, is also a step towards providing sustainable work facilities to answer the findings of Velasco et al [14], Micheletti Cremasco et al [15], Setiawan et al [16], and Emmaty and Panicker [17].…”

This study was undertaken with the aim of engineering an ergonomic chair tailored specifically for cobblers in the Malang Regency, taking into account anthropometric measurements, the Nordic body map, and the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment method. Musculoskeletal disorders, often resulting from prolonged sitting and incorrect posture, represent significant occupational hazards for them. To mitigate these health risks, the study employed the analysis of Nordic body maps to quantify complaints based on body points, and determined anthropometric dimensions to guide the design of ergonomically correct chairs. The aspiration is that the findings of this study will diminish the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, while enhancing the productivity and work quality of cobblers. Cobblers are particularly susceptible to musculoskeletal disorders in the waist and left calf areas, along with the back, hips, right thigh, right calf, left foot, and right foot. Insights gleaned from the Nordic body maps analysis and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment method demonstrated the need for modifications to the traditional cobbler chair to reduce these risks. Consequently, an innovative ergonomic chair was designed, incorporating anthropometric dimensions and several distinctive features, including an adjustable tilt angle on the backrest, a height-adjustable seat base, and a seat base that conforms to the load conditions of the buttocks and thighs.

PurposeThe accelerating business transformation through Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is expected to create significant value in the manufacturing industry by delivering considerably high productivity, superior quality, better efficiency and effectiveness. However, its evolutionary processes have far-reaching challenging for humanity. This has triggered a need to analyze the impact of I4.0 on various people-centric variables (PCVs).Design/methodology/approachThis paper attempts to analyze the interrelationship dynamics between the PCVs in the current digital-industry ecosystem using a focus-group approach and causal loop diagrams. Application of the SWARA (stepwise weight assessment ratio analysis) methodology has provided its prioritized ranking in terms of importance.FindingsThe study has highlighted that I4.0 has a significant influence on five of the 13 PCVs – human quality of life, digital dexterity, high-skilled talent, low-skilled employment and creativity which contribute to 80% of the total impact.Originality/valueThe prioritized weights of the human factors from the SWARA approach have facilitated the assessment of the Human Resource Development Index (HRDI). The study is also contributing in enriching the literature on the human impact of the growing I4.0 and triggered the researchers to study further its adverse impact on critical human factors.Key pointsThe paper pertains to debates on a very critical issue of impact of integration of the current intelligent digital technologies in manufacturing and services to transform businesses to be more flexible and agile.This paper features I4.0 as a technology that allows integration of new products in the existing production lines, one-off manufacturing runs and high mix manufacturing.The paper also highlights major adjustments in operational activities, processes, supply chain, and organizational redesign due to I4.0 adoption.The current research study has significantly enriched the literature on the I4.0 impact on people-centric variables (PCVs) using the SWARA method. The use of the Causal Loop Diagram has very aptly brought out the type of causality (polarity) between the different PCVs in the growth of I4.0.
