Abstract

This dissertation presents ergonomic improvements in the industrial manufacturing process within the seat cover cutting sector of a motorcycle company in the two-wheel hub of Manaus. Ergonomic improvements in industrial manufacturing are crucial to optimizing working conditions, focusing on employee well-being and operational efficiency. The application of ergonomic principles involves adapting the environment, tasks, and equipment to meet workers' needs and limitations, ensuring a safer, more comfortable, and productive workday. The main objective of this study is to propose enhancements to improve ergonomics in the process of manufacturing motorcycle seat covers in a company within the Manaus Industrial Hub. This research is a case study that practically demonstrates the step-by-step methodology for identifying, collecting, and analyzing data, highlighting the implementation of ergonomic improvements in the workplace. Furthermore, it details the challenges faced throughout the process and the solutions developed. Bibliographic research supports the search for journals that contribute to the addressed topic. Ergonomic improvement in the industrial manufacturing process is essential for the long-term success of organizations. By prioritizing workers' well-being and process efficiency, companies not only reduce costs and improve product quality but also fulfill their social responsibilities by creating safer and healthier work environments. Ergonomics should not be viewed as a cost but as a strategic investment that yields significant benefits for everyone involved.
