摘要: Background Prolonged, awkward postures among assembly line workers can lead to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Objective This study determined the prevalence of WMSDs and ergonomic risk factors at an electronic parts manufacturer, introduced a low-cost intervention. Methods Data were gathered by means questionnaire. The Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) technique was used determine factors. A intervention, designed improve working introduced. Results Most symptoms associated with lower back (73.6%), wrist/ hands (71.7%), neck (67.9%). (80%) analyzed using RULA action levels 3 or 4. Conclusions intervention resulted in significant reduction posture scores for trunk. indicated that helped workplace ergonomics.
