The main problem of the pandanus weaving group was
related to the lighting condition. The processes of pandanus
weaving consist of four parts, including pandanus clipping,
ironing, soaking/drying and weaving. The weaving takes the
longest time in the process. The lighting levels in the work
place in the pandanus clipping area, ironing area and
soaking/drying area were 682, 660 and 675 lux,
respectively. These lighting levels were in line with the
standard level (400 lux). However, the weaving area was
found to be at 665 lux (the standard level at 800 lux). After
a skylight and general lighting were installed, the lighting
level in the hand-weaving area was increased to 880 lux
which was the acceptable level according to the guidelines.
