To determine the frequency of work-related musculoskeletal disorders and to assess postural ergonomic risk among tailors.
The cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2017 to February 2018 in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, Pakistan and comprised tailors of both genders aged 25-60 years, working for more than 6 months and having small and medium enterprises. To calculate ergonomic risk of work posture, Quick Exposure Check was used and work-related musculoskeletal disorders were determined through body mapping chart. Data was analysed using SPSS 20.
Of the 400 tailors, 382(95.5%) were males. The overall mean age of the sample was 36.9±10.96 years. The mean Quick Exposure Check score was 46.11±14.83. Acceptable work posture was found in 373(93.25%) subjects. The most common work-related acute musculoskeletal symptoms were found in the upper back 320(80%).
Most tailors had acceptable work posture but work-related pain in upper back was common.
确定与工作相关的肌肉骨骼疾病的发生率，并评估裁缝的姿势工效学风险。
2017年9月至2018年2月在巴基斯坦拉瓦尔品第和伊斯兰堡进行了横断面研究，研究对象为年龄在25至60岁之间、工作超过6个月且在中小企业工作的男女裁缝。使用快速暴露检查表计算工作姿势的工效学风险，并通过身体映射图确定与工作相关的肌肉骨骼疾病。使用SPSS 20对数据进行分析。
在400名裁缝中，382名（95.5%）为男性。样本的总体平均年龄为36.9±10.96岁。快速暴露检查表的平均得分为46.11±14.83。373名（93.25%）受试者的工作姿势可接受。最常见的与工作相关的急性肌肉骨骼症状出现在上背部，有320名（80%）。
大多数裁缝的工作姿势可接受，但上背部与工作相关的疼痛很常见。
