This study was conducted to investigate the associations among work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), job stress, and job attitude of occupational therapists in South Korea. Self-reporting questionnaires were distributed to 150 occupational therapists. Of the 128 occupational therapists who responded, 110 (85.9%) reported WMSDs affecting at least one body site. The most affected WMSDs site was the low back (26.8%), and the most reported number of body site affected by WMSDs was one (53.9%). As a result, there were significant differences in job stress and job attitude depending on the age, work experience, working hour, presence or absence of WMSDs, and number of site of pain. Factors influencing job attitude included job stress, the presence or absence of WMSDs and duration of pain. The results showed that the occurrence of WMSDs in occupational therapists was associated with increased job stress and negative job attitude.
本研究旨在调查韩国职业治疗师的工作相关肌肉骨骼疾病（WMSDs）、工作压力和工作态度之间的关联。向150名职业治疗师发放了自填式问卷。在128名回复的职业治疗师中，110名（85.9%）报告患有影响至少一个身体部位的WMSDs。受WMSDs影响最严重的身体部位是下背部（26.8%），报告受WMSDs影响的身体部位数量最多的是一个（53.9%）。结果显示，根据年龄、工作经验、工作时长、是否患有WMSDs以及疼痛部位数量的不同，工作压力和工作态度存在显著差异。影响工作态度的因素包括工作压力、是否患有WMSDs以及疼痛持续时间。结果表明，职业治疗师中WMSDs的发生与工作压力增加和消极的工作态度有关。
