Özet
It is a fact that today, occupational accidents resulting from the use, structure and working principle of the planer, circular saw, vertical drilling, lathe and edge banding machines used in furniture production enterprises and vocational high school application workshops where furniture education is given lead to serious injuries. The main cause of work accidents and risks is machines which are incompatible with human ergonomics. In this thesis study, general information about ergonomics is given in the second chapter after the literature review. The third section mentions musculoskeletal system disorders that ergonomic incompatibilities may cause. In the fourth chapter, OWAS (Ovako Working Posture Analyzing System), which is an ergonomic risk assessment method based on simple observation, is mentioned. In the fifth chapter, general information is given about the Furniture and Interior Design Field in Vocational and Technical Anatolian High Schools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education and some of the machines used by students studying in this field in their application workshops. In the last part, an ergonomic risk analysis was carried out using the OWAS method to adapt the students to some machines they use while practising. This research aims to reveal, reduce, and, if possible, eliminate ergonomic risks in practice workshops. As a result, it was concluded that ergonomic arrangements should be made urgently in the machines used in the vocational high school furniture workshop.
