ANALISIS POSTUR KERJA PEKERJA PADA PROSES PEMBENTUKAN KERUPUK DI UMKM TIGA SAUDARA DI DESA TANJUNG PERING MENGGUNAKAN APLIKASI KINOVEA DAN METODE OWAS

---

Repetitive manual work activities performed without ergonomic consideration have the potential to cause musculoskeletal disorders among workers, particularly in the food micro-enterprise sector where traditional production methods are still widely practiced. This study analyzed the working posture of three experienced workers in the kerupuk forming process at UMKM Tiga Saudara using the Kinovea application and the OWAS method, and formulated improvement recommendations based on the Hierarchy of Controls framework. Kinovea measurements revealed that workers' back angles ranged from 30.4° to 50.1°, indicating a repeatedly bent posture sustained over prolonged durations. OWAS assessment produced a posture code of 2111 for all subjects, classified as moderate risk level. The uniformity of posture codes across all subjects indicates that workstation conditions have a more dominant influence on working posture than individual worker factors. Improvement recommendations were developed individually based on anthropometric data, including adjustments to seat height (42–46 cm) and work surface height (60–65 cm), replacement of cushions with ergonomic foam padding, and the addition of lumbar support to reduce back muscle strain and improve worker comfort and safety.
