Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs), Work Posture, Computer User Workers.Abstract
There is interaction between humans and machines, namely interaction between office employees and the use of computers that function as a medium to support work activities every day. Workers who apply non-ergonomic work postures have about 12 times greater chances of experiencing Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). MSDs complaints that attack the skeletal muscles as a trigger factor for reduced productivity, loss of working hours, high maintenance and material costs, to low quality of work and even early retirement. MSDs complaints are generally characterized by pain that usually occurs with a continuous frequency. This study aims to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) complaints in computer user workers, especially in individual factors and work posture. This study used a cross-sectional study approach, with a total sampling technique of 72 computer user workers at in Makassar. Nordic Body Map questionnaire was used to determine MSDs complaints and Rapid Office Strain Assessment for work posture assessment. Age (p = 0.003), gender (p = 0.006), work period (p = 0.008), exercise habits (p = 0.005) and work posture (p = 0.000) are associated with MSDs complaints, BMI (p = 0.873) is not associated with MSDs which was previously a bivariate result using the chi-square test then a binary logistic regression test was performed with the results of work posture having an Exp(B)/OR = 8.673. It is concluded that work posture is the most influential factor. The company can form a health promotion unit to educate about ergonomics and have a sound reminder system that aims to invite workers to do workplace stretching exercises.
