Abstract
Cotton is the world’s most widely used textile fiber, the quality of which is extremely critical for successful textile processing. The quality of baled cotton depends on many factors, including variety, weather conditions, cultural applications, harvesting and storage practices, moisture, trash content and ginning processes. There are two major problems are in the Uzbek ginning industry, the first problem is workplace health and safety, and the other is in the ginning of cotton, which occurs while separating lint from seed; the ginning machines damage the cotton fiber as well as the seed because of outdated local Russian-made machinery. In this research article, we focus on a systems approach to workers’ safety.
