Abstract

AIM: This study aimed to determine the effect of participatory ergonomics intervention on worker fatigue.

METHODS: The research conducted in PT. Industri Kapal Indonesia (Persero) Makassar. The method used quasi-experimental with repeated measure design with 3 times repeated in within 15 days for total 60 participants. The sample was collected by simple random sampling. Data analyzed using Paired-Samples T-Test.

RESULTS: The results found that there was an effect of participatory ergonomics intervention on fatigue (p-value of each repeated = 0.001).

COCNLUSION: Participatory ergonomics is appropriate for preventing and reducing fatigue on workers. It is recommended that the company, including workers and management of policymakers, pay attention to this finding.
