Abstract

Background and aims: Nowadays, transportation and driving have key roles to social life and work. Based on the needs to concentration, attention and also proper physical and mental health status of drivers, the present study was conducted to survey the relationship between Occupational stress and musculoskeletal disorders among trucks drivers in Iran, 2014-15. Methods: 173 professional divers participated in this cross-sectional and analytical research using convinient sampling method. Researchers used three questionnaires to gather data: Demographic, Body map, and Drivers Stress Inventory (DSI). Also, analyses were done through SPSS v. 20. Results: Studied drivers were 43. 61± 9. 25 years old. 146 ones (%88. 5) experienced at least musculoskeletal pain at one part of their body. Mean (SD) of Occupational stress score was measured 247. 87± 18. 57. Occupational stress differentiation between participants with and without musculoskeletal problems was most significant about tights, right elbow, and hand (p<0. 05) and also, low back part (p<0. 1). Conclusion: Truck driving as a job in Iran is in medium degree risk of stress. In addition, stress is correlated with musculoskeletal pain prevalence. Developing and applying drivers’ Occupational stress management plan all around the country can lead to safer roads, lesser fatal crashes, and increase in drivers’ health.
