• W2461252685 abstract "Background: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs) are worldwide problems that affect workers in a wide variety of occupations, causing workers’ disability and increased health care cost. However, there is a dearth of literature on the risks and prevalence of WRMSDs among quarry workers in Nigeria. Aim: This study estimated the risks, pattern and prevalence of WRMSDs among quarry workers in a South Eastern Nigerian community. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional descriptive survey of quarry workers recruited using non-probability sampling technique from four purposively selected quarries registered with the federal ministry of solid minerals, in a Nigerian community. This study was conducted between May to August 2012, Parts A, B, C and D of Standard Nordic musculoskeletal questionnaire was used to collect data on the participants’ demographic characteristics, job history, prevalence and risk factors of WRMSDs. Data obtained was summarized using frequency counts, mean, standard deviation, percentages and bar charts. Additionally, chi-square test was used to determine association between prevalence and risk factors of WRMSDs. Finally, logistic regression analysis was done to predict the risk factors with the highest contribution to the presence of symptoms. The alpha level was set at p< 0.05. Result: A total of 114 participants (100% male) with mean age, 28.58 ± 8.09 years and age range, 16-52 years were included in the study. The prevalence rate of WRMSDs was 83.30%. Low back discomfort was the most prevalent (90 (78.9%)). All the participating drivers and mechanics were found to suffer from WRMSDs, while about 66.67, 81.25 and 77.50 of blasters, crushers and drillers also suffered from WRMSDs respectively. Repetitive movement and years of working experience were significantly associated with the occurrence of the symptoms. Task repetition was found to be the major risk factor of low back discomfort. Conclusion: There is a dire need for designing ergonomic interventional programmes to reduce the risks of WRMSDs among quarry workers. The findings of this study highlighted the health problems faced by these workers and is also expected to improve productivity in the quarry industry if employers could minimize the ergonomic challenges of poor work design and environment. However, further studies should be conducted using a longitudinal design to take care of the limited information provided by participant during the cross sectional survey which was mainly subjective. The use of electromyography study to predict muscle fatigue time during work task to determine maximum time a worker should be on task will help reduce the risk of WRMSDs among the quarry workers." @default.
