摘要: Manual material handling (MMH) tasks can be found in most workplaces and they may constitute a risk factor for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of WMSDs compare MMH loads with acceptable weight force limits among Iranian casting workers. Data were collected from 50 workers workshops who performed tasks. The Nordic questionnaire Snook tables used as tools data collection. Hand/ wrist symptoms prevalent problems (84%). results showed that lifting (84%), lowering (86%), carrying (66%), pushing initial (43%) sustained (59%), pulling (48%) (93%) exceeded recommended limits. occurred high rates and, thus, ergonomics interventions should focus on decreasing redesigning
