대기오염물질 측정 근로자의 근골격계 증상 평가 사례

Objectives: The research was conducted to present basic data for the improvement of the working environment in the future by investigating and evaluating the occurrence status of musculoskeletal disorders of workers measuring air pollutants. Methods: The degree of physical burden and musculoskeletal symptoms of measurement work were identified by conducting a survey of the musculoskeletal hazards of workers who measured air pollutants through the questionnaire. And for ergonomic precision evaluation, the measurement work was divided into four stages and REBA and RULA were evaluated for positions with the highest physical load. Results: The musculoskeletal hazard survey found that the higher the height of the chimney, the greater the physical burden (difficult, very difficult), and the more inappropriate the workplace and height are among the most difficult causes of the current work. 78% of the respondents said they had never heard of the musculoskeletal hazard survey, and only 6.1% of them attended the musculoskeletal hazard survey in the past. 34.1 percent of the surveyed said they felt pain or discomfort, with 33.3 percent of them having back pain. Most of the detailed symptom surveys of pain duration, pain level, pain incidence over the past year, and past treatment history also showed high back symptoms. Conclusions: It was determined that improving the working environment of atmospheric measurement workers would require efforts from both policy support, measurement companies and companies requesting measurement.
