Description 873-887
This study addresses the imperative need to mitigate ergonomic risks faced by hand painting workers, who are highly
susceptible to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) due to the complexity of their tasks. The research employs an innovative
methodology combining Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) and Spherical Fuzzy Decision-making trial and error
laboratory (SF-DEMATEL) techniques to thoroughly examine contributing factors. Additionally, Matrice d'ImpactsCroisés
Multiplication Appliquée à un Classement (MICMAC) analysis is performed to categorize these factors, and sensitivity
analysis is carried out to ensure the robustness of the results. Through this unique approach, the study identifies eleven
critical ergonomic risk factors affecting MSDs, emphasizing the importance of task design, worker posture, workstation
design, and task sequencing in mitigating risks. The findings highlight the necessity of holistic approaches in addressing
ergonomic challenges, promoting proactive measures for safer work environments. By integrating ISM and Spherical Fuzzy
DEMATEL methodologies, the research offers a novel framework for targeted interventions. The study's novelty lies in its
comprehensive understanding of ergonomic risks specific to hand painting work and its innovative methodology, with the
validation of findings through rank comparison and sensitivity analysis reaffirming the robustness and credibility of its
contributions to the field of ergonomics.
