Abstract
The health impacts and economic burdens associated by work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) have become an important issue in the field of occupational health. Compared with developed countries, we should more systematically carry out in-depth research and practice on occupational ergonomics, comprehensively understand ergonomic factors and their characteristics, and strengthen the intervention and health risk assessment of ergonomic risk factors in key workplaces based on specific production conditions of different industries, so as to prevent and control the occurrence and development of WMSDs. This article introduced the concept, signs, symptoms, risk factors, and currently identifiable site-specific WMSDs. This column presented new research progress from the aspects of ergonomic load assessment methods, the prevalence and related risk factors of WMSDs in different trades, and ergonomic intervention of WMSDs, aiming to provide reference and basis for future research.
