Abstract

Introduction: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are the leading causes of work related injuries and disabilities in developed and developing countries. There were limited studies that have investigated the simultaneous interactive effects of individual, occupational and workplace characteristics on the development of MSDs. Materials and Methods: The data were gathered by Nordic questionnaire and Quick Exposure Check (QEC) method and were analyzed using a LOGISTIC REGRESSION model in order to study the correlation between the prevalence and severity of MSDs and individual and work-related factors.Results: Over half of the participants (61.6%) reported suffering from a particular form of MSDs during the last six months. Results showed that RISK FACTORS such as work stress, sleeping position, lifestyle, and poor posture had an important role in the prevalence and severity of MSDs. Discussion: According to the findings, the impact of a risk factor is constantly in interaction with other RISK FACTORS and is modified by various intervening factors. Participatory ergonomic intervention programs and interventions in workstations, ergo stress and life-style were suggested in order to reduce the incidence and severity of MSDs.
