Musculoskeletal complaints are experienced by 1.71 billion people in the world, contributing to disability, pain and reducing work productivity. In Indonesia, the prevalence of MSDs is 11.9%, and the top position with 65.2% of cases was the garment sector. The garment sector generally applies a sitting posture, but at PT X all sewing operators work in a standing posture. Long-term standing poses a risk to health, muscles, skeleton and other body parts. To determine the effect of using anti-fatigue mats and stretching on MSDs complaints of sewing operators. Using a quasi-experiment by dividing the respondents into 4 groups. The total population is 156 sewing operators, and samples that meet the criteria are 112 people. Data analysis used paired T-test. There is no effect of stretching on the level of MSDs complaints (p-value = 0.745), there is no effect of using anti-fatigue mats on MSDs complaints (p-value = 0.326), and there is an effect of using anti-fatigue and stretching mats on MSDs complaints (p-value = 0.006). It is known that the combination of the use of anti-fatigue mats and stretching has an effect on MSDs complaints, the suggestion is all sewing operators can implement the program optimally and effectively every day.
