Abstract

Kranggot Market is one of the markets in the city of Cilegon. This traditional market sells various essential goods and basic necessities, one of which is rice. The rice sold at Kranggot Market is supplied from various regions, transported by supplier trucks to rice shops in the market. The rice offloaded from the trucks is typically carried directly by the workers of these shops. The loads carried by the workers vary, ranging from 5 kg to 50 kg, which can pose physical hazards to their bodies, such as bending issues, fractures, spine injuries, and other risks.To address these issues, a physical workload measurement is conducted on rice-carrying workers using the NIOSH method. The study aims to calculate the Recommended Weight Limit (RWL) and Lifting Index (LI), provide recommendations, and assess whether the lifting activities performed by the workers pose risks or are within safe limits. According to the calculation results, the RWL and LI values before the improvements were 10.21 and 4.90, respectively, at the origin position, and 12.67 and 3.95 at the destination position. After the suggested improvements were implemented, the RWL and LI values reached 46.32 and 1.08, respectively. It can be concluded that the recommended improvements using material handling can reduce the risk of injury to workers.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of sustainability principles in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), focusing on chili processing enterprises in Garut Regency. Using a systematic literature review, it analyzes 60 scholarly articles to provide a comprehensive overview of strategies for embedding economic, environmental, and social aspects into MSME operations. The findings emphasize the crucial role of clearly defined responsibilities and collaboration among various stakeholders, including business managers, government agencies, educational institutions, local farmers, and the broader community. The study highlights how these stakeholders can work together to foster a sustainable business environment that enhances profitability while promoting environmental conservation and social welfare. By offering a conceptual framework, this research addresses a significant gap in the literature on sustainable practices in the agricultural processing sector, providing practical insights and recommendations for MSMEs. This holistic approach ensures that these enterprises achieve long-term sustainability while meeting the economic, environmental, and social goals essential for their growth and competitiveness.

Abstract

During the Covid-19 pandemic, most universities implemented distance learning to prevent the spread of the virus. After the pandemic, the learning process shifted to a hybrid method, combining both offline and online instruction. This hybrid system is applied to certain courses, featuring face-to-face classroom sessions alongside video conferencing for lectures. However, the hybrid learning approach has led to a decline in the student achievement index for some students, highlighting the need to evaluate their mental workload. Therefore, this study aimed to measure students’ mental workload during both online and offline exams using the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) method. The results showed a higher average mental workload score for offline exams compared to online exams. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between the scores, indicating a notable disparity in mental workload between offline and online exams. In conclusion, the mental workload associated with hybrid learning—particularly during exams—is considered high.
