Abstract

Manual handling of loads can cause pain among the workers of a water refilling station. This study intends to know the body discomfort and consistency of the workers in performing their task. This study employed a qualitative design with the use of survey checklist through a body discomfort chart. Back pain and arms are the common discomfort of the workers. Despite the pain, majority of the workers can still reliably perform consistently in executing quality services throughout the day.
