Perancangan Sistem Kerja yang Ergonomis di Industri Pemeliharaan Lokomotif “Balai Yasa YOGYAKARTA”

Background: Balai Yasa PT Kereta Api (Persero) Yogyakartais the only diesel locomotive maintenance industry operating inJava Island that has a major role in determining thesuccessfulness of whole train transportation mode operated.A ‘new\u27 locomotive it produces indicates locomotive systemreliability operating. This is a result of a reliable maintainingprocess. Balai Yasa Yogyakarta applies manual process indoing its job. It means that the operator uses his hands to fixthe problems. In the meantime, working process in some unitsare not ergonomics from the point of motion, working position,and operator working hour. Besides, the application ofOccupational Safety and Health Management System is notintegrated with industry management system. This can lead torisks such as accident and illness of work, ineffective and notefficient work, and finally produces unqualified products.Objective: Based on (1) strategic task of Balai YasaYogyakarta, (2) product and work system produced, (3)operator interest on occupational safety and health in productionprocess, and (4) Occupational Safety and Health ManagementSystem interest in locomotive maintenance industry, theresearch conducted in order to discover (a) an ergonomicwork system, on motion and operator working position, (b)time duration in production process of work unit, (c) auditresult of Occupational Safety and Health Management Systemcan be applied as an integrated department with industrymanagement system.Method: This is a non-experimental and observational researchusing modelling style and evaluating in nature.Result: (1) In nine work stations representing complete workprocess characters, the operators show unergonomics motionand working position. It risks work accident and illness, nonoptimum work gain because of improper motion and workingposition. It needs total recovery in operator motion and theirworking position in two standards: standing or sitting must bein straight back. (2) Time duration, work hour for a locomotiveis 143 hours normally. This can be the guideline to arrange astandard in operator motion and their working position basedon time duration. (3) Occupational Safety and HealthManagement System has done the audit and the standardparameter result is 11%. The absence of Occupational Safetyand Health Committee causes occupational safety and healthrun in non standard application. Occupational Safety and HealthManagement System must be integrated in total industrymanagement system.Conclusion: Balai Yasa Yogyakarta has not appliedOccupational Safety and Health Management System andergonomic program, so that it must implement ergonomicprogram and Occupational Safety and Health ManagementSystem
