Pedaling a pedicab every day for a long time can cause fatigue. The fatigue felt by the pedicab drivers will have an impact on the pain in the muscles both in the legs, back, hands, shoulders, and neck. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the level of work fatigue and musculoskeletal complaints on pedicab drivers in the pedicab association Solo Balapan Station. This type of research is quantitative research. The research method used observational research. The study design was cross-sectional. The population in this study were 35 pedicab drivers, a sample of 33 people. Instrument research uses a questionnaire. Data analysis used the test Fisher exact.

There is no relationship between age of workers and musculoskeletal complaints (p=1). There is no relationship between work periods drivers and musculoskeletal complaints (p=1). There is no relationship between the length of work/day with musculoskeletal complaints (p=0.273).
