Problems arising from workload on employees impact on concentration, performance, achievement, and motivation, sleep quality at rest at home, health and work accident. The method used in this study is the measurement of mental workload using NASA-TLX (Task Load Index) with two stages: the weighting stage and ranking stage. Initial research results obtained the value of WWL (weighted workload) of morning shift employees of 73.75, day shift 74.94 and night shift 77.00 the results experienced a high mental workload. Proposed improvements were made with improved shift work, the application of music therapy and aromatherapy. The evaluation result of the implementation of the improvement suggests the value of WWL (weighted workload) of morning shift employee is 56,31, afternoon shift 57,40, night shift 58,41 result decrease mental workload.
