Abstract

Achieving optimal results is something that should be considered in industrial activities. One of the factors supporting achieving optimum results is the system of work in the company. Man is one of the elements of such a system of work. Humans have limited physical abilities, so it is necessary to pay attention to the load that can be borne during work. When humans receive excessive loads with the wrong working posture, it can lead to fatigue and musculoskeletal disorder. These conditions will have an impact on workers productivity, so workloads and postures are something to bear in mind. On CV Halalan Thoyiban there is a production process that is done manually and over a long period of time, so there needs to be an analysis of the operator's working posture. Based on the Nordic body map questionnaire, it is known that the worker has been suffering from pain in some parts of his body. The results of the analysis using the REBA and RULA methods showed that the working posture has low risk, medium risk, and very high risk levels.
