Abstract

Back musculoskeletal pain, particularly low back pain, is one of the most common occupational health problems experienced by industrial workers due to non-ergonomic postures, static activities, and repetitive movements over prolonged working hours. This condition has the potential to reduce comfort, work capacity, and productivity if not addressed through preventive measures. This community service activity aimed to improve workers’ knowledge and prevent complaints of back musculoskeletal pain through workplace health promotion based on ergonomic education and the implementation of a structured stretching program. The program was conducted in 2024 at PT Wahana Kasih Mulia, Cilacap Regency, involving 70 production workers using promotive and preventive approaches through education, demonstrations, hands on practice, and regular stretching assistance sessions. Evaluation was carried out by comparing workers’ knowledge levels and pain complaints before and after the intervention. The results showed an improvement in workers understanding of occupational health and ergonomics, as well as a reduction in complaints of back musculoskeletal pain following the implementation of the stretching program. The program was found to be easy to implement, well accepted by workers, and has the potential to be integrated as part of a sustainable musculoskeletal disorder prevention effort in industrial workplaces.
