Analisa statistik PERKESO dari tahun 2009-2014 menunjukkan sektor yang menerima jumlah pampasan tertinggi akibat penyakit Muskuloskeletal dari PERKESO adalah Sektor Pembuatan, Peruncitan, Tenaga/Komunikasi dan Pertanian. Pembangunan dan penerbitan buku garis panduan ergonomik bagi Sektor Pembuatan akan membantu dan menggalakkan penglibatan pemain pemain industri di sektor ini bagi mengenal pasti dan seterusnya mengawal faktor risiko ergonomik di tempat kerja mereka dan seterusnya membantu mengurangkan kes kes MSD di tempat kerja.

Objektif bengkel ini adalah untuk:

  • Mengenal pasti proses kerja di sektor pembuatan dan seterusnya mengenal pasti bahaya ergonomik (ergonomics hazard) secara spesifik bagi industri pembuatan
  • Menyenaraikan contoh-contoh penambahbaikan yang sedia ada dan boleh digunakan oleh sektor pembuatan bagi menguruskan isu ergonomik di tempat kerja
  • Menerbitkan dapatan di atas sebagai sebuah garispanduan pengurusan ergonomik bagi sektor pembuatan sebagai bahan rujukan
