work to meet the needs of the market. As a result, it encourages fatigue in the workers. There
are several factors on operator fatigue, physical fatigue is roughly 69. 44%, fatigue of work
motivation approximately 60.72% and fatigue due to poor ergonomic working position

was collected through an observation method on workers by assessing and measuring the
body posture of each sample operator. The anthropometry data processing includes the

the test of data normality, percentile values. The study found that there were approximately
71.43% operators have difficulty in concentrating, pain throughout the body approximately
