Abstract
One of the manual matrial handling jobs is the derivative work from the top of the truck. In working the workers use a tool that enggrong which is a short-handed shovel. Due to the use of employee enggrong work with stooped posture. This work posture raises the potential for low back pain in workers. This study is a cross sectional study with a sample of 9 participants. The purpose of research is to find potential risks of low back pain based on angle trunk when workers work sent down the sand by enggrong. Angle trunk which is predicted covering: 1 angle trunk flexion, 2) angle trunk bending, and 3) angle trunk twisting. Work posture data was taken using Microsoft KinectTM 3D camera and analyzed by using Siemen Jack 3D Static Strength Prediction Program (3DSSPP) software to predict angle trunk. The result of the analysis of the 6 work postures showed that worker's frequently employed posture had the average angle trunk flexion of 61.10 ± 10.090, angle trunk bending of 19.80 ± 6.740 and angle trunk twisting of 20.00 ± 9.030. The average angle trunk flexion at 87.28% of maximal angle is a major cause risk low back pain. So that it can be summed up the potential for low back pain on sand workers. Intervention ergonomics need to prevent and reduce potential risks happened low back pain on sand workers.

Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bekerja dengan posisi membungkuk ke depan dengan sudut > 600 selama 5% dari total waktu kerja meningkatkan risiko terjadinya low back pain sebanyak 50% dan jika terjadi ada sudut kemiringan trunk

Summary
Pekerja pasiran adalah pekerja yang bertugas menurunkan pasir dari atas truk. Pekerja pasiran menggunakan skop bergagang pendek dengan sebutan enggrong. Penggunaan alat bantu enggrong ketika bekerja menurunkan pasir, menyebabkan pekerja bekerja dengan postur tubuh membungkuk, hal ini dilakukan karena gagang enggong yang relatif pendek. Selama proses penurunan pasir berlangsung, pekerja bekerja dengan postur tubuh membungkuk. Penelitian Bridger (1998) memperlihatkan pada postur pekerja mengali tanah dengan sekop memimbulkan potensi terjadinya low back pain. Penelitian Davis dan Anes (2014) menunjukkan sudut kemiringan trunk ketika bekerja dapat meningkatkan potensi terjadinya low back pain. Penelitian ini berfokus pada sudut kemiringan trunk pada saat pekerja pasiran bekerja menurunkan pasir dari atas truk menggunakan alat bantu enggrong dan korelasinya dengan low back pain
