Prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders among beach workers
The overall prevalence of RSI/WMSDs was 18.1%. Female sex, extended working hours and recent WA were associated with the outcome. Although no statistically significant associations were found with broader work conditions, the findings highlighted a precarious occupational context characterized by informality, physical overload, insufficient infrastructure and lack of professional training.
