A quasi-experimental research design was employed using pre assessment and post assessment with controlled and experimental groups. The experimental group received woodworking instruction that incorporated ergonomic safety practices such as proper body posture, appropriate workstation set-up, safe tool handling, and organized workspace management, while the controlled group continued with traditional woodworking instruction. Data were collected using a researcher developed questionnaires that measured ergonomic awareness, application of ergonomic practices, and perceived effects on student performance. Descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test were used to analyze the data. Results revealed that the experimental group demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in ergonomic awareness, application of ergonomic practices, and overall student performance after the intervention, whereas the controlled group exhibited only minimal changes. The findings confirmed a significant difference between the pre assessment and post assessment results of the experimental group, indicating the positive effect of integrating ergonomic safety practices into woodworking instruction. Keywords: ergonomic safety practices, woodworking instruction, industrial arts students, student performance, quasi-experimental design

This study investigated the effect of integrating ergonomic safety practices
into woodworking instruction on the performance of second-year Industrial Arts
students at the Technological University of the Philippines–Cuenca, Batangas
Campus. A quasi-experimental research design was employed using pre
assessment and post assessment with controlled and experimental groups. The
experimental group received woodworking instruction that incorporated ergonomic
safety practices such as proper body posture, appropriate workstation set-up, safe
tool handling, and organized workspace management, while the controlled group
continued with traditional woodworking instruction.
Data were collected using a researcher developed questionnaires that
measured ergonomic awareness, application of ergonomic practices, and
perceived effects on student performance. Descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon
Signed-Rank Test were used to analyze the data. Results revealed that the
experimental group demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in
ergonomic awareness, application of ergonomic practices, and overall student
performance after the intervention, whereas the controlled group exhibited only
minimal changes. The findings confirmed a significant difference between the pre
assessment and post assessment results of the experimental group, indicating the
positive effect of integrating ergonomic safety practices into woodworking
instruction.
Keywords: ergonomic safety practices, woodworking instruction, industrial arts
students, student performance, quasi-experimental design
