Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are disorders of the musculoskeletal system caused or aggravated by various sources of hazard or risk factors at the workplace. The objects of this research are felling and skidding workers in IUPHHKHA PT Sari Bumi Kusuma Central Kalimantan. This research is done by using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) and questionnaire of MSDs complaints felt by workers. The result shows that the risk of MSDs felt by felling workers mostly happens in the process of making the notch and cutting while the risk of MSDs felt by skidding workers is likely to happen in the process of installing and un−installing the choker. This is caused by wrong posture, noises, durations, frequency, and the work repetition. The part of body which is likely to get complained about by the felling and skidding workers is the waist. Results of this research show that it’s better to substitute the kind of chainsaw which has been used by the workers with lighter chainsaw and to do health checks on workers in order to reduce MSDs.
