Xu[3] and Kerr[4] , et al. in 1997 and 2001 respectively reported that prolong standing and long working hours in a physically demanding job are associated with low back pain, calf muscle pain, neck shoulder pain and other muscular and skeletal disorders which was one of the most prevalent health problem in most enterprises.
To overcome the job induced musculoskeletal problems, a low height chair with spreader table was designed and introduced to improve the work posture of quilt enterprise workers [Figure 4]. The specification of spreader was made to accommodate the population between the 5th and 95th percentiles.
