| Summary: | UiTM Campus Bukit Besi is well-known for its engineering campus, with engineering majors accounting for the vast majority of its students. Musculoskeletal problems are typical in any workshop activity where students labor in inappropriate postures, such as welding. The study's aims are to identify musculoskeletal discomfort among Mechanical Engineering students at UiTM Bukit Besi. RULA is an ergonomic method for looking at posture, forces, and muscular activity that have been linked to repetitive strain injuries. It is called the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). The RULA approach can detect the severity of pain or musculoskeletal diseases suffered by UiTM Bukit Besi engineering students. The ergonomic assessment gives a risk score that ranges from one to seven, with higher values indicating more risk. This means that it is important and necessary to change work postures as soon as possible. |
