This study examined the relationship of musculoskeletal symptoms with exposure to a combination of ergonomic risk factors at work and the possible ameliorating effect of enough time to rest during working hours or between consecutive shifts in Korean workers. Data were from the 2017 Korean Working Conditions Survey. Workers exposed to ergonomic risk factors were more likely to report musculoskeletal symptoms than those without exposure, and exposure to more ergonomic risk factors increased the probability of musculoskeletal symptoms. Workers who had the opportunity to rest when desired and those who had enough time to rest between consecutive shifts were less likely to report musculoskeletal symptoms. In conclusion, workers exposed to more ergonomic risk factors had an increased risk for musculoskeletal symptoms, and providing enough time to rest and recovery to workers reduced the risk of musculoskeletal symptoms.
本研究考察了肌肉骨骼症状与工作中同时暴露于多种工效学风险因素以及在工作时间或连续轮班之间有足够休息时间之间的关系,在韩国工人中这种关系可能具有缓解作用。数据来自 2017 年韩国工作条件调查。与未暴露于工效学风险因素的工人相比,暴露于工效学风险因素的工人更有可能报告肌肉骨骼症状,而且暴露于更多工效学风险因素会增加肌肉骨骼症状的可能性。当需要休息时有机会休息的工人和在连续轮班之间有足够休息时间的工人报告肌肉骨骼症状的可能性较低。总之,暴露于更多工效学风险因素的工人肌肉骨骼症状的风险增加,为工人提供足够的休息和恢复时间可降低肌肉骨骼症状的风险。
