“Industrial ergonomics & workplace control”

What is ergonomics?

• Fitting the workspace and equipment to fit with our body size to perform work comfortably and sustainably

• Fitting our body size to fit with the workspace and equipment to perform work comfortably and sustainably

• The science of interaction between the design of object and environment in improving overall system performance

Ergonomics is divided into 3 areas except for:

• Cognitive

• Physical

• Psychological

• Organizational

Below are examples of ergonomic risk factors except,

• Working in standing position for more than 2 hours

• Repetitive shoulder movement for 3 hours without break

• Poor fitness

• Manual handling

Cumulative Trauma Disorder (CTD) is the effect suffered after long term and repetitive exposure to poor ergonomics. Examples of CTD are

I Carpal tunnel syndrome

II Tech Neck

III Gamers Thumb

IV Eye infection

• I and II only

• I, II, III

• All of the above

Below are the conditions which trigger an existing employee to redo their Office Ergonomics Self-Assessment except,

• Movement to a new location/workstation/office

• Receiving a new computer or accessories

• Receiving new PPE

• Receiving new office furniture

Below are the PETRONAS Technical Standards/Guidelines that governs Industrial Ergonomics except,

• PTS 18.36.02 Ergonomic Management

• PTS 18.53.09 Human Factor Engineering in Project

• PTG 18.05.01 Human Factors Management

• Guidelines for Manual Handling at Workplace 2018

What are the pain points that triggered NC3 to develop Special Pigging Loading Tools (SPLiT)?

I Ergonomic hazard

II Exposure to hazardous chemicals for more than 3 hours

III Manpower shortage

IV Excess scrap material onboard

• I and IV

• I, II and IV

• I, II and III

• All of the above

What are the two main areas of improvement that the Portable Fire Monitor Trolley Project has achieved?

I Response Time

II Manpower shortage

III Eliminate ergonomic issue

IV Exposure to hazardous chemical

• I and III

• II and IV

• I, II, IV

• All of the above

HFE is part of influencing ____ factors, where we design workplace to optimise task performance and minimise design-induced error

• Individual

• Job

• Organization

• Environment

Below are the benefits on proper implementation of Human Factor Engineering (HFE) except,

• Reduce capital expenditure (CAPEX) by contributing to more efficient design and avoiding the need for changes and/or re-work at later stage of project

• Eliminate or reduce potential of human error and its consequences

• Reduce occupational and process safety HSE risks of facilities

• Low human efficiency and productivity, thereby decreasing operational performance
