Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WMSDs) can impact on fatigue and productivity of office workers. This study aimed to investigate the effect of musculoskeletal problems on fatigue and productivity among office personnel.
This study was performed on 101 Iranian office workers. Data were gathered through a demographic questionnaire, Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, Numeric Rating Scale, Persian version of Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue Scale, and Persian version of Health and Work Questionnaire.
The results revealed that the highest prevalence rates of musculoskeletal symptoms in the past week were related to neck (41.6%), lower back (41.6%), and shoulders (40.6%). The mean score of discomfort/pain was 1.67, 1.55, and 1.31 in the neck, lower back, and shoulders, respectively. Additionally, the severity of discomfort/pain in neck, shoulders, lower back, and thighs was correlated to total fatigue. The severity of discomfort/pain in neck, lower back, buttock, and thighs was also correlated to the concentration/focus subscale of productivity.
Improvement of working conditions is suggested to reduce musculoskeletal problems and fatigue and enhance productivity.
与工作相关的肌肉骨骼疾病（WMSDs）会影响办公室职员的疲劳程度和工作效率。本研究旨在调查肌肉骨骼问题对办公室人员疲劳和工作效率的影响。
本研究对101名伊朗办公室职员进行。数据通过一份人口统计学调查问卷、北欧肌肉骨骼问卷、数字评分量表、波斯语版多维疲劳评估量表以及波斯语版健康与工作问卷收集。
结果显示，过去一周肌肉骨骼症状的最高患病率与颈部（41.6%）、下背部（41.6%）和肩部（40.6%）有关。颈部、下背部和肩部的不适/疼痛平均得分分别为1.67、1.55和1.31。此外，颈部、肩部、下背部和大腿的不适/疼痛严重程度与总疲劳相关。颈部、下背部、臀部和大腿的不适/疼痛严重程度也与工作效率的注意力/专注力子量表相关。
建议改善工作条件以减少肌肉骨骼问题和疲劳，并提高工作效率。
