BACKGROUND
Many sewing machine operators are working with high risk factors for musculoskeletal health in the garments industries in Bangladesh.
OBJECTIVE
To identify the physical risk factors among sewing machine operators in a Bangladeshi garments factory.
PARTICIPANTS
Sewing machine operators (327, 83% female), were evaluated. The mean age of the participants was 25.25 years.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Six ergonomic risk factors were determined using the Musculoskeletal Disorders risk assessment. Data collection included measurements of sewing machine table and chair heights; this data was combined with information from informal interviews.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Significant ergonomic risk factors found included the combination of awkward postures of the neck and back, repetitive hand and arm movements, poor ergonomic workstations and prolonged working hours without adequate breaks; these risk factors resulted in musculoskeletal complaints, sick leave, and switching jobs.
CONCLUSIONS
One aspect of improving worker health in garment factories includes addressing musculoskeletal risk factors through ergonomic interventions.
背景
在孟加拉国的服装行业，许多缝纫机操作员面临着影响肌肉骨骼健康的高风险因素。
目的
确定孟加拉国一家服装厂中缝纫机操作员的身体风险因素。
参与者
对缝纫机操作员（327名，83%为女性）进行了评估。参与者的平均年龄为25.25岁。
方法和材料
使用肌肉骨骼疾病风险评估确定了六个工效学风险因素。数据收集包括测量缝纫机工作台和椅子的高度；这些数据与来自非正式访谈的信息相结合。
结果与讨论
发现的显著工效学风险因素包括颈部和背部的不良姿势、手部和手臂的重复性动作、不良的工效学工作站以及长时间工作且没有足够的休息时间；这些风险因素导致了肌肉骨骼不适、病假和换工作。
结论
改善服装厂工人健康的一个方面包括通过工效学干预来解决肌肉骨骼风险因素。
