The present work is based on the research, carried out by the authors, called “Minimization of Personnel Absenteeism with the Application of Proposed Ergonomic Model in a Plastics Manufacturing Industry” (Quiroz-Flores et al., 2023) consisting of the following: The objective of this investigation is to design and propose effective methods that facilitate plastic manufacturing industries to reduce and correct the risks presented in the different workstations studied. The main purpose of ergonomics is to adapt the workstations and machines to the operator and environment, through methodologies and tools focused on identifying and determining the risks to which employees are exposed during their workday, and in turn the impacts of these during the industrial processes. This project has required an extensive review of literature and field analysis. The evaluations done through methods such as RULA, REBA, OCRA and OWAS, resulted in an average of 10, 6, 17.5 and 3, respectively, which gives as a reference that there is a medium-high level of risk in different tasks of each job within the production area of high-density bags. In conclusion, by applying the methods mentioned before, the companies will be able to optimally design the work areas and, in addition, adapt the development of the processes to the established safety standards. In this way, an improvement will be achieved to contribute to the quality of life of the operator, increase the production rate and, in this case, reduce injuries and musculoskeletal diseases.
