Summary:The compound fertilizer's industry did trading as a first business in compost using Mahkota brand which is a subsidiary of Wilmar Group Indonesia, which became one of the largest agribusiness companies in the world. The results of preliminary observations show that the number of activities and methods of work done by each operator varies. Thus, the calculation workload against any worker in Plant 1 using Work Load Analysis (WLA) to calculate the percentage of productivity using the Work Sampling method. Furthermore, the excellent determination rating factor value using Westinghouse. The high determination Allowance values using tables Industrial Labor Organization (ILO). The results of the workload calculation show that the workload accepted by six workers is high because the value is above 100%. Proposed recommendations for improvements presented in connection with high workload conditions is to increase the number of workers as much as two workers so that the number of workers in Plant 1 is eight workers.
