  • Does oil palm plantation production produce a high prevalence of ergonomic injuries?
  • Ergonomics Observation: Harvesting Tasks at Oil Palm Plantation Production agriculture is commonly associated with high prevalence of ergonomic injuries, particularly during intensive manual labor and during harvesting.
  • Do oil palm plantations pose ergonomic risk factors for fresh fruit bunch cutters?
  • Besides discussion, video recordings were extensively used for ergonomics analysis. Results: The unique commodity of oil palm plantations presents significantly different ergonomics risk factors for fresh fruit bunch (FFB) cutters during different stages of harvesting.
  • Why do oil palm workers suffer ergo Nomic pain during harvesting?
  • Meaning that the training was successfully given impact to the result that cause ergo nomic pain to the worker’s body part that involv ed during carried out harvesting activity in the field. For the ergonomic pain and accident occur during harvesting among oil palm workers. Th e result in line wi th ergonomic problems.
  • Does oil palm plantation work with ergonomics?
  • Unfortunately, despite the intensive manual handling and labor activities involved in harvesting at an oil palm plantation (OPP), the agricultural ergonomics at the OPP have yet to be recognized, with only few articles related to ergonomics in OPP work activi- ties published in local publications.
  • Why is ergonomics risk assessment important for oil palm workers?
  • The prevalence of work-related complaint among oil palm workers is high. Due to that, it is important to carry out a systematic ergonomics risk assessment to effectively estimate the ergonomics risk factors that exist in all work processes.
  • Do oil palm trees-weight FBB collectors have ergonomic injuries?
  • Although the ergonomics risk factors remain the same for FFB collectors, the intensity of manual lifting increases significantly with the age of the oil palm trees-weight of FFB. Conclusions: There is urgent need to establish surveillance in order to determine the current prevalence of ergonomic injuries.
