Abstract

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) remain critical issues in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia and Thailand, where industrial growth has led to an increase in workplace accidents and occupational diseases. This study focuses on an international community service collaboration between Thammasat University in Thailand and Indonesian institutions. The program aims to enhance students' understanding of OSH challenges, share knowledge on workplace accident prevention, and introduce ergonomics-based health promotion media. The activities included presentations, discussions, and evaluations to measure knowledge improvement. Results indicated that students significantly increased their understanding of OSH principles, as evidenced by high scores on post-activity quizzes. Additionally, the introduction of ergonomics-based health promotion media highlighted its potential as a preventive tool in addressing workplace hazards. This program underscores the importance of cross-border collaborations in advancing workplace safety and offers insights for scaling similar initiatives across ASEAN countries.

Abstract

Background:Musculoskeletal disorders among professional drivers represent a significant occupational health challenge, with prevalence rates of 78.6% globally, causing physical discomfort, reduced performance, and increased workplace injury risks. The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive overview of MSD research development and guide future research directions based on quantitative analysis of scientific publications. Method: A comprehensive bibliometric analysis was conducted using Web of Science database data from August 10, 2025. The search included open access English articles on "Back pain" and "Transportation" using VOSviewer and R-Bibliometrix tools to visualize inter-literature connections and research evolution. Results: Dominance of “Public Environmental” category is well quantified of 112 documents revealed. The United Kingdom, USA, and Australia led research contributions with strong international collaborations. Four thematic clusters emerged: Motor Themes (exposure, prevention, ergonomics), Basic Themes (driving safety, automation), Niche Themes (human factors), and Emerging Themes (occupational health, systems thinking). Key focus areas included whole-body vibration, low-back pain, ergonomic interventions, and health prevention strategies. Conclusions: Significant gaps exist between assessment studies and comprehensive intervention development in driver musculoskeletal health research. Despite extensive research foundations in developed countries, intervention studies remain limited, particularly in developing nations. The analysis emphasizes the need for cost-effective ergonomic interventions, longitudinal studies, and direct measurement techniques to address the complex interplay of work procedures, environment, and equipment in musculoskeletal disorder development among professional drivers.

Abstract

Background: Ergonomic assessments in occupational safety and health are primarily based on the method of subjective observation. However, during the past two decades major technological developments have occurred, with the potential to revolutionise ergonomic evaluation methods. Methods: This bibliometric study was conducted to systematically map studies on safety design ergonomics between 2002 and 2024. Out of an initial pool of 225 articles all of them were carefully selected and analysed using VOSViewer in order to examine publication trends, geographic distribution, and the evolution of key themes. Results: Notable innovations include wearable sensors to capture real-time posture, Microsoft Kinect to record movement and automated assessments using artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic and machine learning. The advent of Industry 4.0 has led to the development of Motion Analysis Systems and digital twin technologies which encourage human-robot collaboration. The emergence of collaborative robots and exoskeletons offers encouraging ways to prevent musculoskeletal disorders. Most of the research is concentrated in developed countries with many of the findings published in interdisciplinary journals. Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis indicates the rapid growth in the use of AI-enabled and sensor-based ergonomic assessment tools, especially since 2018. The results indicate a shift towards ergonomics adapted for workplaces, which was not emphasised in previous studies. The successful implementation of such technologies requires addressing issues concerning costs, developing standardised procedures, and ensuring equitable access.
