Ergonomic is an important factor of any business. In Productivity improvement every factor play vital role. Hence Ergonomic is very much essential factor while considering Productivity Improvement. After visiting many small scale industries it was found that Ergonomics was hardly preferred. The Ergonomic Risks are most commonly found in Foundry section of any industry. Hence in order to improve productivity ergonomic risk factors in foundry section can be identified and minimized with the help of CMDQs. Cornell Musculoskeletal Disorder Questionnaires gives the Discomfort levels of different parts of body as well Left & Right Hand. The study was conducted for 15 workers in small scale Casting industry. Results are presented in Graphical format. According to Survey Average Score of each Body Part and Average of All MSDs of All Samples in % are calculated. According to which Lower Back part of body have higher percentage of both Average MSDs and Average Score. Higher percentage of MSDs in Left hand i.e. 40.99 % in Upper Palm. Whereas Higher percentage of MSDs in Right hand i.e.36.84 % in Upper Palm.
