Abstract: (31 Views)
Aim: Occupational stress is one of the contributing factors to musculoskeletal disorders, affecting worker health and productivity. This study evaluates evidence on risk factors, mediators, and preventive strategies for musculoskeletal disorders in high-stress work environments.
Method and Materials: The literature review utilized PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, focusing on studies from 2019 to 2024. Relevant keywords and Boolean operators refined the search, and selected articles were screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The final studies were analyzed and synthesized for a comprehensive review.
Findings: Occupational stress significantly contributes to musculoskeletal disorders, with psychological mediators like burnout and sleep disturbances exacerbating symptoms. Key stressors include excessive workloads, poor ergonomics, and long hours, with women and older workers at higher risk. Effective interventions, such as ergonomic training, physical activity, and leadership support, can mitigate these risks.
Conclusion: Occupational stress significantly contributes to musculoskeletal disorders, requiring integrated interventions. Targeted strategies can reduce Musculoskeletal disorders , enhance well-being, and improve productivity.
