“…In a previous study, it was reported that stressful working environment increased musculoskeletal disorders and the most prominent musculoskeletal disorder was upper back discomfort (Baur et al, 2018). In another study, it was stated that nurses experienced mostly back discomfort due to reasons such as positioning, rotating, and moving patients, and lifting heavy objects by nature of their duties (Clari et al, 2021; Tavakkol et al, 2020; Yizengaw et al, 2021) which also supports the result of the present study. As a result of the study, it is suggested that the difference between the right and left body parts may be due to more use or strain.…”

“…In studies conducted with nurses, it was found that nurses with increased musculoskeletal complaints worked in high‐stress and negative working conditions; it was reported that nurses mostly experience back, neck, and leg complaints (Baur et al, 2018; Clari et al, 2021). If these complaints cannot be brought under control, this will both increase the health problems of nurses and impair the quality of patient care (Duarte & Pinto‐Gouveia, 2017a, 2017b; Yizengaw et al, 2021). The study was conducted to determine the perceptions of nurses' working environment and professional quality of life and to compare these perceptions according to nurses with and without musculoskeletal discomfort.…”

“…The healthcare field is also one of the fast-growing job markets globally due to the increasing number of aged population and diseases. One of the common musculoskeletal disorders reported in the scientific literature was the weak core muscle [1][2][3]. HCWs are at the risk of developing weakness in the core muscles and musculoskeletal disorders due to the busy work schedule and occupational stress [4,5].…”

Background Healthcare workers are at the risk of developing weakness in core muscles and balance disturbance due to stress at the workplace. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between core muscle strength measured with a plank test and dynamic balance assessed with the modified Star Excursion Balance Test (MSEBT) among hospital staff. A convenience sample of 27 healthy male employees at Rabigh General Hospital participated in the study; participants performed MSEBT and plank tests in the gym of the physical therapy department at the hospital. Results The mean age of the 27 participants was 32.19, standard deviation (SD) 4.16 years; mean height was 171.15, SD 6.39 cm; mean weight was 72.37, SD 11 kg; and body mass index was 24.73, SD 3.62 kg/m2. Pearson’s correlation coefficient showed a positive significant correlation between scores on the plank test with leg reach scores on MSEBT. The data showed a highest correlation between scores on plank test with dominant anterior leg reach scores on MSEBT (r = 0.446, p = 0.010), and lowest with non-dominant anterior leg reach scores on MSEBT (r = 0.335, p = 0.044). Conclusion Weak to moderate positive significant correlation between the plank test of isometric core muscle strength and both the right and dominant of the anterior, posteromedial, and composite score on the MSEBT of the lower limb and significantly with non-dominant anterior reach. There was no significant difference between the administrative and health practitioner on the plank test or MSEBT.

Postur pekerja bagian penggorengan melakukan aktivitasnya dengan punggung membungkuk, tubuh memutar kekanan dan kekiri, jangkauan lengan terlalu lebar. Aktivitas kerja meliputi proses memasukkan irisan tempe pada wajan penggorengan, menggoreng dan meniriskan keripik tempe. Hasil wawancara saat observasi awal pekerja merasakan sakit paling banyak pada bagian pantat/paha serta punggung. Hal ini terjadi karena pekerja melakukan aktivitasnya dengan posisi statis dalam durasi lama sehingga menyebabkan munculnya keluhan sistem otot rangka. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui keluhan – keluhan yang dirasakan pekerja, mengetahui postur kerja sesuai dengan kaidah ergonomi atau tidak, dan mengetahui seberapa besar tingkat risikonya. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah kuisoner Nordic Body Maps (NBM), metode Rapid Uupper Limb Assessment (RULA) dan metode Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA). Hasil analisis menggunakan kuisioner NBM menunjukkan bahwa pekerja merasa sakit pada bagian bahu sebesar 50%, punggung bawah sebesar 50%, pantat/paha sebesar 60%, dan lutut sebesar 50%. Kesimpulan lanjutan dari kuisioner NBM, postur kerja pekerja bagian penggorengan belum memenuhi kaidah ergonomi. Hasil penilaian dengan metode RULA menunjukkan aktivitas kerja bagian penggorengan memiliki tingkat risiko sangat tinggi dengan skor 7, sedangkan hasil penilaian dengan metode REBA menunjukkan risiko sangat tinggi dengan skor 11. Tindakan lanjutan yang diperlukan adalah investigasi dan lakukan tindakan perubahan segera/secepatnya. Perbaikan yang dapat dilakukan adalah dengan menggunakan kursi yang ada sandaran dan sesuai antropometri pekerja, melakukan gerakan peregangan untuk mengurangi rasa nyeri yang dirasakan pada anggota tubuh, dan menata ulang area kerja agar barang-barang berada dalam jangkauan. Kata kunci: postur kerja di stasiun penggorengan, Nordic Body Maps, RULA, REBA
