Musculoskeletal Symptoms and Associated Factors Among Iron Foundry Workers

MSS are highly prevalent among iron foundry workers, and are linked to both physical and psychosocial workplace factors. Preventive strategies should combine ergonomic interventions, workload management, and job stress reduction measures. Implementation of participatory ergonomics programs, engineering controls, and administrative policies could help reduce the burden of MSS in this occupational group.

Abstract

MSS are highly prevalent among iron foundry workers, and are linked to both physical and psychosocial workplace factors. Preventive strategies should combine ergonomic interventions, workload management, and job stress reduction measures. Implementation of participatory ergonomics programs, engineering controls, and administrative policies could help reduce the burden of MSS in this occupational group.
