- Abstract
This study aims to examine the health promotion model to tackle WMSDs. The health promotion models studied were stretching exercises from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia and stretching exercises developed by researchers (PKDTK). The method used is quantitative analysis, namely paired samples t-test and independent samples t-test. The sample in this study were workers in the garment industry and the sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The results of paired samples t-tests showed that stretching exercises from the Ministry of Health and stretching exercises developed by researchers affected decreasing the degree of WMSDs. The results of the independent samples t-test showed that there was a significant difference in the degree of reduction in WMSDs among garment workers who used the Ministry of Health's stretching exercises and those who used PKDTK's stretching exercises. Based on the average value of the degree of decrease in WMSDs, PKDTK stretching exercises have a higher average value compared to the Ministry of Health's stretching exercises.
