Redesign of Workstation to Reduce the Risk of Wrist Lesion to Improve Work Conditions in an Industry Focused on the Assembly of Spark Plug Wire

The present research was done with the aim to evaluate and improve a workstation focused in the assembly of spark plug wire which are composed by boot, terminals and wire. A pneumatic double acting controller with a lockable food pedal was employed as the mechanism for join the parts. Rula and Ocra analyses were done for identify the principal body part compromised by the task and for stablished the presence of a risk for the worker for the omission of an ergonomic right design.
