Epidemiological study on multisite musculoskeletal disorders among civil aviation cabin crew members
Objective To understand the occurrence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs)in multiple parts of civil aviation cabin crew members.Methods Using an epidemiological cross-sectional survey method,the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disease Survey Questionnaire was used to investigate cabin crew members of three airlines.Results A total of 1 036 civil aviation cabin crew members were surveyed,and the incidence of WMSDs was 59.17％.Regarding the location of the occurrence,the top five incidence rates are neck(43.24％),shoulder(34.17％),lower back(23.46％),upper back(17.86％),and foot/ankle(13.71％).The incidence of multisite WMSDs among cabin crew members is 42.08％,and the incidence of single body site WMSDs is 17.08％.The incidence of WMSDs occurring simultaneously in two body sites is 13.03％,which is the highest all multisite WMSDs.Logistic regression analysis shows that gender,unable to discretionarily decide the start and end time of work,not taking turns with colleagues to complete work,working in an uncomfortable position and insufficient rest time are risk factors for the occurrence of multisite WMSDs.Keeping staff sufficient and avoiding headdown posture for long time may be its protective factors.Conclusion The occurrence of WMSDs among cabin crew members is mainly concentrated in the neck,shoulders,lower back,upper back,and feet/ankles.The incidence of multisite WMSDs is relatively high,which is related to individual factors,poor work posture,work organization,and other factors.It is recommended that relevant departments should pay attention to it,arrange shifts reasonably,strengthen employee health education,and reduce bad posture for civil aviation cabin crew members in work,effectively avoiding the occurrence of WMSDs.
