Vegetable-producing operations are extremely labor intensive; throughout the activities, farm workers often adopt various postures such as bending, twisting, semi-bending, standing and sitting. which are directly associated with drudgery and occupational health problems. The present study was designed with the following objectives: to study the demographic and activity profile of farm workers engaged in a vegetable production system, postural analysis of farm workers involved in a vegetable production system, to identify the work-related health hazards experienced by the farmworkers during different types of work activity and to suggest the importance of correct postural techniques of doing work. The aim of integrating ergonomics with farm workers involved in the vegetable production system is to solve the issues and to increase worker productivity and efficiency.
