Abstract :

Songket weaving artisans is a job that needs special attention because the process still uses traditional high-risk looms. The initial survey showed that 9 out of 10 artisans experienced muscle and skeletal complaints, known as Musculoskeletal Disorders. This study aims to determine the relationship between individual characteristics and occupational factors with MSD complaints in Pandai Sikek songket weaving artisans. This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. Conducted from December 2021 – June 2022 to 77 respondents. The sampling technique uses simple random sampling. Data processing uses univariate and bivariate analysis with a chi-square test with an α value of 5%. The results showed that 53.2% of songket weaving artisans experienced moderate risk MSDs complaints, 64.9% of artisans were classified as lack of exercise, 36% of artisans were classified as having BMI abnormal, 24.7% of artisans were classified as having risky working duration, and 76.6% of artisans’ working posture is classified as high risk. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that the variables associated with MSD complaints were age (p=0.000), years of service (p=0.000), exercise habits (p=0.020), BMI (p=0.012), duration of work (p=0.001), and work posture (p=0.028). There is a relationship between age, years of service, sports habits, BMI, duration of work, and work posture with MSDs complaints. Artisans are expected to stretch before, during, and after work. Nagari is expected to reach out to artisans regarding applying K3 when weaving.
