Flying shuttle involves highly repetitive activity, involving 94.67± 13.59 repetitions per minute with a pulling force of 6.67 ± 1.39kg. Ergonomic intervention may reduce the frictional force between the shuttle and surface of the race which will be very effective in reducing the force as repetition cannot be hampered otherwise it will affect production. The findings of the study will be helpful in identifying the areas where ergonomic intervention is required for the weavers. Paying attention to the occupational health and safety issues prevalent in this sector will have noticeable impact on national handloom production, socio-economic condition of the weavers, thereby improving their quality of life. The study underlines the needs for further work regarding ergonomic design implementations in the present loom workstations, along with the gender specific requirements.
