ABSTRACT Tough working conditions prevailing in the silvicultural sector contribute to the appearance of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in employees. This paper presents an analysis of the prevalence of self-reported musculoskeletal disorder symptoms (MSSs) among forestry workers. The Standardized Nordic Questionnaire (SNQ) was used as a tool for recording such self-reported symptoms. The questionnaire was completed by 100 professional forestry workers, 29 of whom were female, whose main tasks included debarking and stacking of firewood. The 71 male participants were classified according to work type into those who performed motor-manual felling and skidding with draft animals and those who performed motor-manual felling and skidding with the use of agricultural tractors. In order to test for the potential effects of different factors on the prevalence of MSSs among the workers, a quasi-binomial regression approach was followed. The main outcome from the fit of the regression-type models was that besides the varying influence of demographic factors such as workers’ age and years of experience, the type of work also constitutes a major factor impacting MSSs. Furthermore, the results show that the self-reported MSSs that occurred in the overall number of participants over the last 12 months preceding the completion of the questionnaire affected body areas such as wrists and hands (65%), knees (57%), and lower back (52%). A high percentage (41%) of participants also reported symptoms on their shoulders and upper back.

监测林业作业中自我报告的肌肉骨骼症状

摘要 林业部门普遍存在的恶劣工作条件导致员工出现肌肉骨骼疾病 (MSD)。本文分析了林业工人自我报告的肌肉骨骼疾病症状 (MSS) 的流行情况。标准化北欧问卷 (SNQ) 被用作记录此类自我报告症状的工具。问卷由 100 名专业林业工人完成,其中女性 29 名,主要任务包括剥皮和堆柴。71名男性参与者根据工作类型分为手动伐木和拖拉机打滑和农用拖拉机手动伐木和打滑。为了检验不同因素对工人中 MSS 患病率的潜在影响,采用了准二项式回归方法。回归型模型拟合的主要结果是,除了工人年龄和工作年限等人口统计因素的不同影响外,工作类型也是影响 MSS 的主要因素。此外,结果显示,在完成问卷前的过去 12 个月内,参与者总数中自我报告的 MSS 影响了身体部位,例如手腕和手 (65%)、膝盖 (57%) 和下背部 (52%)。很大比例 (41%) 的参与者还报告说他们的肩膀和上背部出现症状。回归型模型拟合的主要结果是,除了工人年龄和工作年限等人口统计因素的不同影响外,工作类型也是影响 MSS 的主要因素。此外,结果显示,在完成问卷前的过去 12 个月内,参与者总数中自我报告的 MSS 影响了身体部位,例如手腕和手 (65%)、膝盖 (57%) 和下背部 (52%)。很大比例 (41%) 的参与者还报告说他们的肩膀和上背部出现症状。回归型模型拟合的主要结果是,除了工人年龄和工作年限等人口统计因素的不同影响外,工作类型也是影响 MSS 的主要因素。此外,结果显示,在完成问卷前的过去 12 个月内,参与者总数中自我报告的 MSS 影响了身体部位,例如手腕和手 (65%)、膝盖 (57%) 和下背部 (52%)。很大比例 (41%) 的参与者还报告说他们的肩膀和上背部出现症状。结果表明,在完成问卷前的过去 12 个月内,参与者总数中自我报告的 MSS 影响了手腕和手 (65%)、膝盖 (57%) 和下背部等身体部位(52%)。很大比例 (41%) 的参与者还报告说他们的肩膀和上背部出现症状。结果表明,在完成问卷前的过去 12 个月内,参与者总数中自我报告的 MSS 影响了手腕和手 (65%)、膝盖 (57%) 和下背部等身体部位(52%)。很大比例 (41%) 的参与者还报告说他们的肩膀和上背部出现症状。
