Data were processed using regression and chi-square tests and the significance level was determinate at P<0.05.Results: The results indicated that 30.2% of participants obtained from11 to 15 scores (very high risk level). Results of the Nordic QUESTIONNAIRE indicated that the highest musculoskeletal disorder report was related to neck region with 50.8%.Conclusion: The results showed that 30.2% from the final REBA scores had very high risk level and 51.7% high risk level means that essential corrective and urgent corrective measures are required respectively.
