All Correlation coefficients showed a significant inverse relationship between age (P<0.001) and job experience (P<0.03) with WORK ABILITY INDEX. Also difference of mean work ability in six job groups was not statistically significant (P=0.06). No significant relationship was seen between level of education and work ability (P=0.12). On the other hand, mean of WORK ABILITY INDEX for singles was significantly higher, compared with married ones (P=0.03).Conclusion: According to the results, the ability index of workers in fruit and vegetable stands was intermediate.Therefore, it is suggested that training programs, insurance coverage and pensions to be more considered based on labor law and modifying workstations, in the priorities of employers.
