Construction workers, especially in developing nations such as Indonesia, have a high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The purpose of this meta-analysis was to identify the key risk factors associated with MSDs among construction workers. Twelve papers published within the past 20 years were analyzed. Findings indicate that smoking (odds ratio [OR]: 2.88; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.35–3.53), uncomfortable posture (OR: 11.9; 95% CI: 6.32–22.64), and psychological demand (OR: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.09–1.49) play an integral part in contributing to Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). This study revealed that manual material handling (MMH) and psychological demands had a considerable influence on upper limb complaints. The odds ratio for MMH was 1.58, with a 95% confidence interval of 1.39–1.79; psychological demand had an odds ratio of 1.29, with a 95% confidence interval of 1.12–1.49. To improve occupational health management strategies for management purposes, awkward posture correction and psychological demand management must be prioritized as primary interventions.

摘要

Construction workers, especially in developing nations such as Indonesia, have a high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The purpose of this meta-analysis was to identify the key risk factors associated with MSDs among construction workers. Twelve papers published within the past 20 years were analyzed. Findings indicate that smoking (odds ratio [OR]: 2.88; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.35–3.53), uncomfortable posture (OR: 11.9; 95% CI: 6.32–22.64), and psychological demand (OR: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.09–1.49) play an integral part in contributing to Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). This study revealed that manual material handling (MMH) and psychological demands had a considerable influence on upper limb complaints. The odds ratio for MMH was 1.58, with a 95% confidence interval of 1.39–1.79; psychological demand had an odds ratio of 1.29, with a 95% confidence interval of 1.12–1.49. To improve occupational health management strategies for management purposes, awkward posture correction and psychological demand management must be prioritized as primary interventions.
