1. A.

Michelle Trading is a tiny business that operates in an open area and sells concrete hollow
blocks that are needed for homes or other buildings, with enough space and tools
.
b. The potential ergonomic issues that could develop typically involve things like back pain and
muscle strains that can be harmful to one's health. Additionally, a trip and fall accident owing to
the disorganized arrangement of supplies and equipment.
c.
i) Job design: fatigue and weariness from lifting, carrying, and moving the product from
manufacturing to storage.
Workplace Design: Unnecessary movement and disorganized operating placement cause
additional motion and fatigue. Additionally, there are issues in the workplace such exposed plugs
and improper product storage.
Design of equipment and tools: No proper placement of equipment in the process of
making hollow blocks, narrow push cart.

ii.) No, all the workers are qualified enough in making hollow blocks at michelle trading

No, they are not aware of the placement of equipment.

iii.) Supervisor: No in the workplace during observation

Policies: Only authorized people are allowed in the workplace rather than that no other
policies included

Stress and pressure: As a result of how difficult and grueling the task is, this is also viewed
an ergonomic and safety in contributing hazard

1. Typical Population of workers performing the tasks

a. Physically fit and strong

Average Height

b. 20-45 years old

c. Estimated is high school and college undergraduate
2. A.
Brick making machine: can create blocks with variable dimensions and characteristics
Concrete mixer: Combine all the materials used and mixed them together
Push Cart: Transporting the product to storage
Rod: Stirring
b. I'll evaluate it based on the efficiency with which all the machinery is used to create the product,
as well as its durability and cleanliness.

3. A. The level of the mixer doesn't fit to the height of the workers that can affect their postures.

B. The workers are using narrow push cart to transfer the hollow blocks that can cause lower back
pain and MSDS.
 C. Having unorganized workplaces can cause employees to work inefficiently and waste time because
they don't know where they put their tools.

3. Curing
4. Cubing
E. Workers are given allotted time of 4-5 hours on doing task. However, it depends on the quantity
of CHB they will produce every day.
F. Workers must be physically fit and healthy they must have novice skill or limited experience in
experimental scenarios or as training on the job he can understand and can discuss terminology
concepts principles and issues related to his work.
G. This type of labor required workers not only to be focus on the task at hand but also be

H. Safety footwear provide to all workers to avoid slips and trips.

7a. Application of fork hoist lubricator instead of using a narrow push cart to transfer the finished hollow
blocks to its designated area this will be a substitution to their narrow push cart that will serve benefits
including;

•improve workers productivity and safety in concrete hollow blocks

•prevent the physical strain caused by using bear has to move the fresh blocks one by one

•comfortable transportation of concrete hollow blocks from manual block manufacturing equipment to
storage.

•reduce the unnecessary motion

B.• Job installation of alarms, signs and warnings

•job rotation

•lightweight concrete block
