    This study aims to design laptop deskin sit-down cafe with hotspot availability, which are ergonomic and comfortable for consumers, so that they will feel comfortable to put their laptops, food and drinks. Therefore, the initial research was conducted to find the criteria which the customersrequire regarding laptop desk in sit-down restaurant with hotspot availability by distributing questionnaires to consumers which was then followed by validity and reliability test toward the questionnaires which was then followed by the weighting using AHP method. After obtaining the criteria of the required desk, then a morphological map was created to get the alternative design in accordance with the criteria required by consumers. After that, zero-one calculation was performed to get the required/selected design. Anthropometry was then calculated to get the actual size/dimension. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the selected design based on the customers’ preference is a laptop desk designed for individuals / personal equipped with a place/space to eat and drink with a brown color, made from wood and with the size / dimensions: Table length = 56 cm, table width = 34 cm, table height = 36 c

    Cleaning workersare jobs that require physical strength especially if the work is carried out at a height, and it is not uncommon to complain about musculoskeletal discomfort in physical areas that feel uncomfortable when working in an un ergonomic position. From the observation results If observed posture when cleaning wokers work, body position tilted and bent with angles ranging from 20°-60°, neck bent with an angle of about 20 °, cleaning is done repeatedly by shifting the left hand and right hand with the angle of the upper arm > 90° raised for 10 minutes and forearm around 40°, this illustrates the condition of awkward posture cleaning wokers not ergonomic, posture that is not ergonomic will cause musculoskeletal disorder.The purpose of this researchis to measure the effect of stretching on mental workload in an effort to mental recovery. To achieve these objectives, first determine the type of glass cleaning activity outside the building at a height including: preparing tools, climbing stairs, cleaning glass, moving to other areas and cleaning tools, determining stretching movements, then conducting experiments in this case divided into 3 (three) treatment, first without stretching, giving stretching in the morning at 10 am for 6 minutes and stretching during the day at 2 pm for 6 minutes. Measurement of mental workload using the Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT) method, statistical processing by carrying out the covariance homogeneity test, Multivariate test and followed by the MANOVA test. The results of this researchthat stretching in addition to having a positive influence on the decline in mental workload, can also be used for mental recovery. Working at a height with a work posture that is not ergonomic, will increase the level of mental workload

    The number of private vehicles is increasing every day, with the increase in the number of private cars, the potential for traffic accidents is also increasing, one of them is in Malang Regency, namely on Singosari Simpang Tiga Songsong Street inSub District of Singosari, Land of Surabaya-Malang, from the results of interviews in the field of at least 1 accident times in one month. This is due to several things including the driver not realizing the importance of a safe response speed when driving a car, especially when entering the intersection area. This study uses a questionnaire to determine the model of the taillights of private cars that pass through Singosari Simpang Tiga Songong Street, Sub-District of Singosari, lane of Surabaya-Malang, calculate the weight of criteria using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, experimental models, to determine alternative models of distance, car speed and safe response speed when crossing the area. From the results of research and experiments found, the conditions in the morning the selected model is the second model with a speed of 50 km/h with a distance of 16.66 m which is safe to respond. For crowded conditions during the day the model does not affect the response speed and the distance of 13.88 m is the safe distance to respond. For crowded conditions in the afternoon the model does not affect the response speed and the distance of 11.11 m is the safe distance to respond. The conclusion to represent the three conditions in the morning, afternoon and evening is a recommendation in the morning because morning time is a critical condition than other time conditions where the safe speed is 50 km/h with a safe distance of 16.66 m, for respon

    Pekerjaan memanen nira kelapa merupakan pekerjaan beresiko tinggi terhadap kesehatan. Selain faktor ketinggian, postur kerja yang mengandalkan kekuatan fisik ketika memanjat juga menjadi penyebab timbulnya rasa sakit pada tubuh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keluhan yang dirasakan oleh pemanen nira kelapa berkaitan dengan postur kerja ketika memanen nira kelapa. Penelitian dilakukan dengan memberikan kuisioner Nordic Body Map kepada 30 pemanen nira kelapa. Dari sini diketahui bahwa daerah bagian tubuh mana saja yang dirasakan paling sakit. Selanjutnya pekerja diberikan stretching yang dilakukan di sela-sela waktu bekerja, dilakukan selama 7 hari. Hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa rasa sangat sakit terdapat padalengan, bahu kanan sebesar 86,7%, lengan atas kanan dan kiri masing-masing 80 %, dan bahu serta leher yang semuanya di atas 50%. Keluhan dengan kategori sakit terdapat pada bagian tubuh, yaitu lutut kanan dan kiri sebesar 83,3% dan 76,7%. Punggung, pinggang serta tangan juga dirasakan sakit oleh responden dengan persentase melebihi 50%.setelahmelakukan peregangan otot mengalami penurunan rasa sakit pada bagian yang dikeluhkan dari kategori sangat sakit menjadi agak sakit.

    Mental task is one of city transportation driver jobs related to concentration and ability to control the visual information received. Superior mental ability is a necessity in order to control the car properly to avoid accident. To obtain information related to provision of stretching treatment of drivers to improve their response speed. Stretching treatment and response speed measurement were done in the morning and afternoon. To achieve the purpose, the research was conducted in following stages: (1) determining the route/path of city transportation, (2) searching for 30 respondents/drivers with age ranges of 25 up to 60 years, (3) determining the stretching movements, named D-Stretch, and (4) time setting of stretching treatment. The time treatments were grouped into following three groups: (1) without stretching, (2) stretching in the noon and (3) stretching in the morning and noon. Measurement of driver response was done by props tool, the drivers is asked to provide a response to props; the response speed is recorded in camera. The research findings showed that without morning stretching the response speed or speed in the afternoon slower. Stretching time in the morning and noon could increase the response speed in the afternoon. The drivers had more swiftly response to represents a decrease in fatigue and stress. The conclusion was stretching treatment in the morning and noon will provide a positive contribution to driver alertness, particular city transportation drivers. The response speed of driver became better and faster. Stretching treatment in the noon will gave a positive contribution to driver alertness in car to drive public transportation or faster response speed and driver becomes more awake
