摘要

Objectives. A posture maintained for a long period can be harmful to the health of office workers. This study aimed to estimate the recommended ergonomic duration for maintaining different sitting postures. Methods. Forty healthy male and female students participated in this experiment designed to measure perceived discomfort caused by maintaining common static sitting postures of office workers in a simple ergonomic set-up for 4 min. The Borg CR10 scale was given to the participants to assess the discomfort in different body parts, before and after each experiment. Based on the mean group discomfort level of 2, the recommended holding time of each posture was estimated. Results. The recommended holding time and its discomfort score for each studied posture were tabulated. The shortest holding time of a posture was obtained for the moderate neck flexion (1.61 min), and the longest holding time was obtained for a leg posture with 90 degrees knee flexion (6.45 min). Conclusions. The recommended holding time in this study may help to assess the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in office workers and train the individuals involved in office tasks in proper sitting behavior.
