Quality goes hand-in-hand with productivity in the competitiveness and today’s industry must have both. The global market is intensely competitive and has been described as the equivalent of running in a race that has no finish line. The most competitive companies typically are also the safest and healthies. Footwear manufacturing industry is included into labor-intensive industries or industries that use more human power than machine in running the process. In achieving its quality and productivity targets many industries is applying an approach that focuses on reducing waste in each process by minimizing a process in a job and eliminating non-value added processe. This strategy is included in implementing machines with new technology (modernization line) and of course will increasingly affect the human as the main asset in the process. This research will evaluate the workload between conventional production lines and modernization production lines by measuring work environment conditions which is temperature, noise, light intensity, objective fatigue and subjective fatigue and their effects on productivity. The results of this research on all production lines show that conventional lines have a higher workload than modernization lines in despite of using of calculating of calorie needs method or heart rate method. There is no significant relationship between average results of the analysis of physical factors on the work environment with the workload. Multivariate analysis of the influence of physical factors, workload, objective fatigue and subjective fatigue on productivity shows that the effect of objective fatigue & subjective fatigue variables were positively and significantly correlated to productivity
