    Repetitive movement can lead to the pain muscle, nerves, and tendons that cause by
    repetitive overuse of working task. The muscle will fatigue due to; repetitive
    movement, force that been applied, posture during working and duration of working.
    The stress level during working can influent the energy performance usage during
    working. The aim of this paper is to analyse the influence of heart rate and muscle
    activity of workers in composite manufacturing towards muscle fatigue. The data was
    collected for a worker in hand layup department and the Qualitative method was used
    in a way to investigate the working load and level of pain received by their body. Then,
    the Qualitative data was sorted and the respondent proceeded for a Quantitative
    method which involves muscle activity analysis and heart rate analysis. The tools that
    were used to conduct these experiments were surface electromyography (sEMG),
    Wristwatch with chest strap and perceived stress scale (PSS). The experimentation
    used to calculate the average reading of heart rate and muscle activity during working
    and detect the duration the muscle to start fatigue. Moreover, this paper analysed the
    relationship between heart rate and muscle activity through the duration of working.
    As an overall finding of this research, it was shown that the heart rate of the workers
    influence the muscle activity of workers and has high potential relationship to the
    fatigue of muscles of the workers in the layup department.
