Various government efforts have been made for economic recovery, especially to mobilize the real sector which directly concerns the lives of many people. Among them, the construction sector is the most dynamic, apart from being a labor-intensive industry, the Construction Services Industry involves various business activities both in its industry and in other industries. The long-term goal of this research is to create a work environment in the construction sector that is healthy, safe, comfortable, efficient, and productive which leads to increasing the degree of occupational safety and health in the implementation of construction work. Based on the results of initial observations, it is known that there are still construction workers who have awkward work postures, therefore, to avoid work-related illnesses or work accidents, it is necessary to assess construction workers’ ergonomic risks. This research aims to analyze the level of ergonomic risk in construction workers.
