This study aims to describe the working posture risks among inpatient nurses at Hospital X during the period of August-September 2025. This analytical observational study employed a cross-sectional approach involving 86 nurses selected through stratified random sampling. Working posture was assessed using the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) questionnaire. This findings indicate that most of nurses were exposed to high-risk postures. A total of 45 nurses (52.33%) were categorized as high risk, 31 nurses (36.05%) as medium risk and 10 nurses (11.63%) were indicated as low risk. No respondents were classified as negligible risk or very high risk. Patient-related procedures such as intravenous infusion (54.18%) demonstrated the highest posture of risk. The other procedures associated with elevated risks included vital-sign assessment, injection administration, and patient transfer activities. This findings suggest that non-ergonomic working environments contribute to increased posture risk, highlighting the need for ergonomic interventions and training to promote safety and proper working postures among nurses. Abstrak. Postur kerja merupakan salah satu aspek ergonomi yang berperan penting dalam menjaga kesehatan dan keselamatan kerja perawat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan risiko postur kerja pada perawat ruang rawat inap di RS X periode Agustus-September tahun 2025. Metode penelitian ini bersifat analitik observasional dengan gaya potong lintang dengan subjek sebanyak 86 responden yang terdiri dari perawat ruang rawat inap terpilih melalui stratified random sampling. Data penelitian diambil melalui kuisioner Rapid Entire Body Assesment (REBA). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar perawat berisiko postur kerja tinggi. Sebanyak 45 perawat (52,33%) berisiko high risk, 31 perawat (36,05%) berisiko medium risk dan 10 perawat berisiko low risk. Tidak ditemukan responden dengan kategori negligible atau very high risk. Tindakan yang berinteraksi langsung dengan pasien seperti menginfus (54,18%) dinilai memiliki postur kerja dengan risiko tertinggi. Tindakan lain yang menunjukkan risiko tinggi meliputi pemeriksaan tanda-tanda vital, menyuntik dan aktivitas transfer pasien. Temuan ini disebabkan oleh lingkungan kerja yang tidak ergonomis sehingga diperlukan intervensi ergonomi dan pelatihan postur kerja yang baik.]]>
