Anthropometric data collection was carried out randomly and 10 sample / person data were taken from workers at PT XYZ. From the results of data processing to determine the dimensions / size of milk processing workers is the size of the chair that is the width of the base of the chair 39.39; seat height 44.73; the length of the seat base 43.29 and the height of the seat backrest 58.59.
