【 摘 要 】

This research article briefly highlights the proposed research framework for identification of potential ergonomic risk Factors and mitigating measures for Malaysian oil and gas drilling industries. Because ergonomic hazard is considered as one of the major causes of lifedraining injuries and life time disabilities among oil and gas drilling crew. In this proposed research study, mix method research design will be adopted with explanatory research design. Whereas, industrial survey and semi structure interviews will be conducted to from oil and gas drilling crew (150) and safety and health experts (09) for identifying the potential ergonomic hazards with their effective mitigating measures. Whereas, descriptive statistics, What-If analysis and thematic analysis approach will be used in this proposed research study. The expected outcome of this proposed research framework is to provide the most potential ergonomic risk factors associated with oil and gas drilling operations at onshore and offshore domain with their most suitable hazard controlling measures at Malaysian industries. Similarly, this proposed study will provide a comprehensive mitigating approaches and strategies to safety and health officials to design effective safety trainings and instructional designs based on ergonomic safety professionals' opinions.
