Abstract: Between 7.00 p.m. to 3.30 a.m. traditional female porters (18-40 years old) in Badung market of Denpasar have conducted their daily work which is carry a 61 to 102 kg basket (empty weigth between 1 to 2 kg) on their head. Each movement has reached 100 meter long to transport the loaded basket. According to ergonomic concepts, this activity is excessived and oftenly caused injuries to the porters. Solving this unergonomic work condition, we improved work quality of 11 sampels of porters in terms of work posture, work method, lift load, and work tools design in order to solve innature work postures, provide a chance to have an active rest and change static work systems to be more dynamic. Generally, this research was aim to know effects of improving work quality by using ergnomic approach to productivity of the porters. The results were (1) the everage of L5/S1 pressure forces are 7.637,15 + 66,78 N (before improving) and 2.983,26 + 16,63 N (after improving); (2) the average of work pulses are 150,61 + 1,06 pulses/minute (before) and 119,51 + 1,39 pulses/minute (after); and (3) the average of productivity are 1,78 x 10-2 +- 0,01 x 10-2 (before) and 2,24 x 10-2 +- 0,03 x 10-2 (after). Engaging ergonomic approach to recover work quality could reduce 60,94% (p<0,05) of L5/S1 pressure forces, 42,59% (p<0,05) of work load, and increase 26,04% (p<0,05) of productivity.
