Abstract

UMKM Ema Laundry is a Small and Medium Enterprises engaged in laundry services which were established in 2018. The increasingly rapid competition in the laundry service business requires Micro, Small and Medium Business owners to be able to make several continuous improvements related to improving work posture so that workers are able to carry out their activities properly, be productive and minimize work accidents. Physical activity that is carried out continuously and does not pay attention to ergonomic aspects will result in pain in certain parts as well as complaints of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). The problem found is that in the activity of lifting the laundry basket, the workers often experience pain in the waist due to less ergonomic posture, so based on this, this study aims to analyze the work posture in the activity of lifting the laundry basket by distributing the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire and using the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) method. Based on data processing, it was found that in the dissemination of the NBM questionnaire, a relatively low score was obtained due to the habit of workers in carrying out activities with poor work posture. Meanwhile, the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment method is obtained a score of 7 which is included in the high risk level category so that improvements are needed. Proposed improvements are to bring the laundry load closer to the worker's body, keep the feet shoulder width apart and use the leg muscles to provide lift, provide a 10-minute break every 1-2 hours of work and use a trolley aid to move the laundry basket.
