These complaints can reduce work productivity in garment workers. This study aims to determine the musculoskeletal disorders experienced by garment workers x. This study was conducted through direct observation, interviews, and filling out the Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaire to measure musculoskeletal disorders. The results showed that the most complaints of pain were in the waist, upper neck, and the back. For the classification of risk levels based on the Nordic Body Map score, 17 respondents (85%) experienced a risk level of MSDS disorders with the "low" category, 3 respondents (15%) with the "medium" category, and there were no respondents with the "high" category. To prevent more serious health problems in the future, it is important for garment workers to always apply ergonomic principles in their work. So that workers can maintain their health and work productivity in the long term.
