Work performed in a standing position in a settling way generally poses a risk to health. It is characterized by more rapid exhaustion arising in a worker's physical condition that can lead to decreasing productivity. This study aims to determine the impact caused by the fatigue experienced by the operators of the beverage packaging upon the resulting output. Observations were made during the first month of the beverage packaging activities performed by the operators. Measurements were performed by questionnaire measuring devices of fatigue feeling that was given to each packaging operator after work. Meanwhile, a stop watch was used to measure the speed of a packing used, where each operator was tested on their time speed when they started packing till they finished it and ultimately produced one dos. T- test results showed that there was a relationship between the level of perceived operators' fatigue with packaging time speed. © 2006-2016 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).
