Exploring data of the high prevalence of
musculoskeletal pain among university office
workers indicates an adverse health effect for
officers. The major causes of musculoskeletal pain
which were prolonged sitting, twisting and
bending of the trunk confirm the onset of workrelated musculoskeletal pain in this study. The
further study of prospective cohort study design
might be helpful for investigating the incidence
and related factors to the onset of musculoskeletal
pain. Furthermore, a design of a bigger sample size
should be considered for statistical analysis.
