Quarry workers are at high risk of developing musculoskeletal complaints. The aim of this study was to evaluate the working postures and prevalence of musculoskeletal problems among quarry workers. In this cross-sectional study 78 male quarry workers were assessed using the method of Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), and musculoskeletal complaints data were obtained by the Standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal questionnaire (NMQs). Results of the prevalence of musculoskeletal problems in body parts of stonemasonry workers was higher found than in the stonecutting workers. The highest prevalence rate of musculoskeletal problems in both stonemasonry and stonecutting workers was 65.7% and 54.8% respectively related to waist. The stonemasons with 62% had high level of risk and stone cutting workers with 47.6% had moderate risk level. Significant correlation was found among age, work experience, BMI, and prevalence of musculoskeletal problems. There was also a significant relationship between the wrist and lower back pain with the risk level of REBA score. The study results showed that musculoskeletal problems of workers had high prevalence and accordingly most of the work conditions and postures needed to be improved, so prioritizing the necessity of corrective actions and intervention are to be gained.

采石场工人极易出现肌肉骨骼疾病。这项研究的目的是评估采石场工人的工作姿势和肌肉骨骼问题的患病率。在这项横断面研究中，使用快速整体评估（REBA）方法对78名男性采石场工人进行了评估，并通过标准化北欧肌肉骨骼调查表（NMQ）获得了骨骼肌肉投诉数据。发现石工工人身体部位的肌肉骨骼问题的患病率高于石工工人。在石工和切石工人中，与骨骼相关的肌肉骨骼问题患病率最高，分别为65.7％和54.8％。占62％的石匠风险较高，有47.6％的切石工人风险中等。在年龄，工作经验，BMI和肌肉骨骼问题的患病率之间发现显着相关性。手腕和下背部疼痛与REBA评分风险水平之间也存在显着关系。研究结果表明，工人的骨骼肌肉问题普遍存在，因此大多数工作条件和姿势都需要改善，因此必须优先采取纠正措施和干预措施。
