ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of neck and shoulder pain (NSP) among automobile manufacturing workers and to provide a theoretical basis for prevention of NSP.Methods:
From November 5 to November 19, 2017, a total 446 works who had worked for more than one year were recruited from an automobile plant by cluster sampling method. Chi square test and unconditional logistic regression were used to exam the relation between influencing factors and NSP.Results:
The annual prevalence rate of NSP was 34.8%. Multifactor regression analysis showed that ageãwork fatigueãdepartment staff shortagesãlifting heavy objects in awkward positionsãneck flexion foreword and prolong sitting position work were the risk factors of NSP (OR=2.18, 95%CI1.49~3.18; OR=4.52, 95%CI1.27~16.00; OR=1.66, 95%CI1.04~26.68; OR=2.10, 95%CI1.16~3.81; OR=2.25, 95%CI1.39~3.66; OR=2.42, 95%CI1.06~5.56) and work break was the benefit factors of NSP (OR=0.58, 95%CI0.36~0.94) .Conclusion:
The annual prevalence rate of NSP among automobile manufacturing workers was high. Lifing heavy objectsãawkward working positions and unreasonable work arrangement were the major risk factors of NSP, and work break can effectively reduce the risk of NSP. Effective ergonomic intervention should be carried out to prevent the occurrence of NSP.Palavras-chave
