BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Due to multiple reasons like prolonged sitting and postural demands, software engineers are prone to develop musculoskeletal problems, which can be easily alleviated by practicing proper Ergonomic posture in their workstation. The main objective of the study was to assess the knowledge of Ergonomics Principles and Workplace Practice among the software engineers working in a private firm.
METHODOLOGY
This was a cross-sectional study conducted among 403 software engineers working in a private firm, Chennai.
RESULTS
Among the 403 study participants, 85.6% had musculoskeletal problem in any area of focus. Only 9% had adequate ergonomic knowledge and only fewer among them practice it adequately.
CONCLUSION
The study revealed higher prevalence of musculoskeletal problem, lower prevalence of knowledge about Ergonomic principles and much lower prevalence of appropriate practice of Ergonomic principles. This can be alleviated by a simple primary care like ergonomic education and practising.
背景与目的
由于长时间坐着以及姿势要求等多种原因，软件工程师容易出现肌肉骨骼问题，而在工作场所保持正确的人体工程学姿势可轻松缓解这些问题。本研究的主要目的是评估一家私营公司的软件工程师对人体工程学原理和工作场所实践的了解情况。
方法
这是一项对钦奈一家私营公司的403名软件工程师进行的横断面研究。
结果
在403名研究参与者中，85.6%在任何关注区域都存在肌肉骨骼问题。只有9%的人具备足够的人体工程学知识，其中只有少数人能充分实践这些知识。
结论
该研究表明，肌肉骨骼问题的患病率较高，人体工程学原理知识的患病率较低，而人体工程学原理的适当实践患病率更低。通过诸如人体工程学教育和实践等简单的初级保健措施可以缓解这种情况。
