MANUAL-MATERIAL HANDLING

Pendahuluan
• Mekanisasi >> msh > pekerjaan yg hrs
dilakukan secara manual – mengandalkan
kekuatan manusia  LBP
• Fakta : 20% cedera punggung Work related-
 bisa diatasi dengan teknik manual handling
yg benar
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than one million workers suffer
back injuries each year, and back injuries account for one of every five workplace
injuries or illnesses. Furthermore, one-fourth of all compensation indemnity claims
involve back injuries, costing employers billions of dollars. These figures do not
begin to reflect the pain and suffering employees experience as a result of their
injuries.
• Back Injuries are the 2nd-most
common workplace problem
• A back injury costs an average of
$11,645 in medical claims and lost
time wages.
National Safety Council

• Most back injuries can be prevented

 What is “Ergonomics”?
Ergonomics is the scientific study of human work.

Ergonomic principals adapt work to a specific person by designing tasks & tools
or equipment to fit the individual to prevent injuries to the musculoskeletal
system.
 What are the benefits of ergonomics?
•Reduction of work-related injuries
•Increased worker productivity
•Increased work quality YOU JUST
FEEL BETTER!
•Reduced absenteeism
•Increased morale
Ergonomics provides a win-win
situation…..on and off the job
 DEFINISI
• MMH  memindahkan item /barang dengan
energi manusia
 Termasuk dalam manual handling
• Lifting
• Lowering
• Pushing
• pulling
• Carrying – moving
• Holding (person, animal or item)
 Contoh
• Bawa box
• Using handles
• Repair activity
• lifting
Item yg dipundahkan bisa berveriasi dlm:
• Bentuk - Ukuran
• Berat - Bulk
• Jenis - Kemudahan

Risiko pd pekerja yg melakukan MMH

 Masalah utama MMH
• Tdk menggunakan teknik mengangkat &
membawa dg benar
– Mengangkat-posisi awkward
– Mengangkat sambil memutar (twisting)
– Mengangkat beban terlalu berat
– Gerakan repetitive
– Membawa item yg berukuran besar
mengganggu pandangan & keseimbangan
The amount of force you place on
your back during lifting may surprise
you! Think of your back as a see
saw, with the pivot point in the
center. It only takes ten
pounds of pressure to lift a
ten pound object.
If you shift the pivot point to one side, it takes much more
force to lift the same object. Your waist acts like the pivot point on a see saw,
with
a 10:1 ratio. Lifting a
ten pound object puts
100 pounds of pressure
on your lower back.
When you add in the 105
pounds of the average
human upper torso, you see
that lifting a ten pound
object actually puts 1,150
pounds of pressure on the
lower back.
Bend Your Knees
Bend at your knees, not your waist.
This helps you keep your center
of balance and lets your legs do the lifting, not your
back.
"Hug" The Load
Try to hold the object as close to your body as
possible, as you gradually straighten your legs
to a standing position.
Avoid Twisting
Twisting can overload your spine
and lead to serious injury. Make
sure your feet, knees and torso are
pointed in the same direction when
you are lifting.

loads!
 Carrying the load…

• Hold the load close so you can see over it.

• Keep the load balanced.
• Avoid twisting the body
• Watch out for pinch points -- doorways, etc.
• Face the way you will be moving.
For those Awkward Moments...
If you must lift or lower from a high place:
•Stand on a platform instead of a ladder
•Lift the load in smaller pieces if possible
• Push the load to see how heavy and stable it is.
• Slide the load as close to yourself as possible before
lifting up or down.
• Get help when needed to avoid an injury.
From hard-to-get-at places...
• Get as close to the load as possible
• Keep back straight, stomach muscles tight
• Push buttocks out behind you.
• Bend your knees
• Use leg, stomach, and buttock muscles to lift -- not
your back.
Heavy lifting can injure the back, especially
when it is repetitive and over a long period of
time.
Twisting at the waist while lifting or holding a heavy
load…this often happens when using a shovel…
Reaching and lifting…
Over your head, across a table, or out the back
of a truck…
Lifting or carrying objects with awkward or
odd shapes…
Working in awkward, uncomfortable
positions…
Sitting or standing too long in one position
can be very hard on the back…
It is also possible to injure your back
slipping on a wet floor, ice, etc…
Exercises that work your back, hips,
thighs, and abdominal muscles can
minimize back problems…
Warm up slowly and exercise regularly…
Wall slides will strengthen your hips, thighs, and
lower back…
Stand with your back against the wall, feet shoulder-
width apart. Slide down into a crouch with knees
bent to a 90º angle. Count to 5 and slide back up.
Repeat 5 times…
Leg raises will strengthen your legs and lower back…
Lie on your stomach and raise one leg from the floor. Hold for a 10 count and
return leg to floor. Do the same with the other leg. Repeat five times with
each leg…
Crunches will strengthen your abdominal
muscles….
Lie flat on your back, knees bent and feet flat on
the floor. With your hands supporting the head
and neck, slowly raise head and shoulders off
floor. Count to 10 and repeat 5 times…
Knee raises will strengthen your legs and
abdominal muscles…
Lie on back, knees bent and feet flat on
floor. Raise knees toward chest. Do not
raise head or straighten legs as you lower
them. Repeat 10 times…
Lie on your stomach, hands under shoulders, and push up. Raise
top half of your body as high as possible. Keep hips and thighs on
floor. Repeat 10 times…
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart. Place hands
in small of back. Keep knees straight and bend back
at waist as far as possible. Hold for a couple of
seconds. Repeat as needed.
 Use proper lifting techniques
Exercise on a regular basis
Place objects up off the floor
Use carts, dollies, and other lifting devices
whenever possible
Test the weight of an object before lifting by
picking up a corner
Get help if the object is too heavy
