Abstract

The method used are qualitative approach, observation, survey checklist and Muther's Grid Method Muther’s Grid is the tool in analyzing the relationship of each process in order to come up with effective layout. The study assessed the workplace layout of Triple V S4S & Furniture. Ergonomic conditions were also analyzed in relation to workers’ performance. The result revealed that the furniture in the workspace is flexible but not comfortable enough for long working hours. The physical conditions, including room temperature and noise distractions, greatly affect productivity. Disorganized storage space and the inability to display materials are also concerns. Having control over temperature and efficient lighting would improve productivity. Hence, it emphasized the significance of workplace layout optimization and the selection of appropriate conditions for an effective work environment.
