Variabel bebas adalah berat tas sedangkan variabel terikat adalah MSDs. Pengambilan data dengan pengisian kuesioner. Data diolah secara univariat dan bivariat dengan uji korelasi spearman. Hasil: Didapatkan korelasi antara berat tas dengan musculoskeletal disorder. Hasil Analisis Korelasi Spearman antara berat tas dengan keluhan nyeri otot, didapatkan nilai p=0.000 dengan nilai r=0.225 yang artinya terdapat korelasi yang lemah antara berat tas dengan keluhan nyeri otot.
