Population of this research were workers part of making lumpia’s wrappers with the total of 31 people and sampling method was using total sampling. Data of occupational fatigue collected using reaction timer measurement, work pulse measurement using pulsemeter and other data based on interview of respondent data sheet. Data analyzed using Pearson Product Moment correlation test for normal data and Rank Spearman for abnormal data with α = 0,05. Statistical results test showed that there were correlation between physical workload (sig = 0,002) and age (sig = 0,008) and there were no correlation between work periods (sig = 0,967) and gender (sig = 0.233) with the level of occupational fatigue.]]>
