Hospital workers are under increasing pressure to work more efficiently with fewer resources and management skills.This stressful situation can be made worse by physical discomforts in the workplace. In part for this reason, the healthcare workers are at high potential risk of physical strain that can lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). Our objective is to assess the physical risk factors for musculoskeletal injury among eighty five hospital workers at ten large hospitals using Psycho-physiological study. Participants were categorized into two groups: Government hospital (GH) workers and Private hospital (PH) workers. Result showed that GH workers were exposed significantly (p < 0.05) to high physical risk as compared to PH workers due to the interaction of personal factors and poor circumstantial factors, which combine to
affect the quality of care and working life.
