This study analyzes the relationship between occupational risk factors and Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) complaints among garment workers in Tasikmalaya City. The background of this study focuses on the high level of repetitive work, non-ergonomic work positions, and long working hours in the garment industry, which can increase the risk of musculoskeletal problems. This study aims to identify occupational risk factors related to MSD complaints among garment workers. The method used is a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach involving garment workers as respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and observations regarding work positions, work duration, and repetitive activities. The results indicate that the majority of workers experience MSD problems in several areas of the body, especially in the neck, back, and wrists. Risk factors such as non-ergonomic work positions, long working hours, and repetitive movements have a significant correlation with the increase in MSD complaints. Consequently, preventive measures are needed through improving work ergonomics, regulating rest schedules, and occupational health education to reduce the risk of MSDs in garment workers.
