Low productivity and high sick leave in the weaving division of PT XYZ in Yogyakarta are caused by excessive physical and mental workload on Shuttle Loom Unit 2 operators. The productivity of the weaving division of PT XYZ was recorded at only 61.96% (target 75%) with sick leave of 4.17%, indicating operator fatigue. This study measured physical workload using the Cardiovascular Load (CVL) method based on heart rate and mental workload using NASA-TLX, and analyzed the correlation with age and length of service. The results showed a moderate physical workload category (40% light CVL <30, 60% moderate 30-60) at a temperature of 30.5°C, and high-very high mental workload (45% high 50-79, 55% very high ≥80, average EF 79.3) due to strict quality targets (0.5% defects). There is a correlation between CVL and NASA-TLX with age. Recommendations include reducing the daily production target from 100 to 85-88 yards, optimizing ergonomics, and training to reduce EF to 65 and defects to 0.3, to increase effective productivity.
