| Summary: | Mechanical Workshop is one of the parts of the organization that
handles repair and maintenance work on factory machines. A number of signs
of fatigue occur in the workplace, including workers feeling fatigued, sleepy,
having difficulty maintaining concentration, feeling sore, and becoming ill, as
well as supervisors recognizing fatigue as a problem resulting from high
workloads at the workplace. Employees report fatigue impairing their work
activities, resulting in a decline in work performance and accidents such as
hands being pinched and scratched. Therefore this study aims to evaluate and
design a mitigation strategy of work fatigue for workshop mechanical workers
at PT. Pupuk Kujang.
In this study, 50 workshop mechanical workers participated in a fatigue
measurement activity. Three measurement activities were conducted in one
day, which are morning, midday, and late afternoon. The measurement
instruments are Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT), Visual Analogue Scale
(VAS), and Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS), as well as a questionnaire.
The results of this study show that workers tend to experience an
increasing feeling of fatigue from morning until afternoon with fourteen people
experiencing substantial fatigue. Factors that correlate with the level of work
fatigue are commuting times and distance, level of work conflict, frequency of
work overtime, total duration of sleep in two days consecutively, frequency of
work in the factory, monthly salary, work stress, and age. Based on the results,
this study recommends some strategies for mitigating work fatigue. The
recommendations are providing a pick-up vehicle, holding workshops and
training events, the facilitation of naps, overtime policies, the use of caffeinated
drinks, providing a training and certification process for workers, better work
planning and assignment system for repairs and maintenance, and creating
campaign posters at the workplace. |
