Abstract

The plantation sub-sector is the largest contributor to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the Indonesian economy. The risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in agriculture often occurs in both developed and developing countries. It is necessary to conduct occupational health and safety training for tea farmers in Indonesia to provide an understanding to tea farmers about occupational health. A descriptive research method was used in this study to see whether there was a change in the awareness and knowledge of tea picker workers on occupational health after attending the training. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test difference test was conducted to see the effect of the training carried out. The results of the statistical tests conducted showed an increase in workers’ knowledge of occupational health with a significance value of 0.008, the impact that would be felt if not paying attention to occupational health with a significance value of 0.012, and complaints of pain in the body parts during/after work with a significance value of 0.018.
