摘要: Waste collection is a necessary activity all around the world and removal of municipal solid waste job associated with variety biological, chemical, mechanical, physical, psychosocial hazards. In our country, like many developing countries, collected manually household also which requires repeated heavy physical such as lifting, carrying, pulling, pushing. We performed this study to evaluate musculoskeletal disorders among workers. designed cross sectional study. Our survey instrument for measurement symptoms was adapted from Standardized Nordic Questionnaire that translated into Farsi language. A total 65% (n=142) participants reported they had been troubled in one or more 9 defined body regions during last 12 months. Prevalence low back, knees, shoulders, upper back neck were 45, 29, 24, 23 22% respectively. Foreign workers parts than Iranian The differences between prevalence two groups significant except knees. found have general population. Meanwhile these common foreign risk disease increased increasing years working worker smoking. didn't find relationship education marriage status
