Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between musculoskeletal disorders and physical activity levels in office workers. Material and Methods: Extended Nordic Musculoskeletal System Questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form were used. Results: A total of 107 people participated in the study. The results were as follows: gender being female increased the risk of shoulder pain 4.7 times. Working without a break for 4 hours or more increased the risk of pain in the neck by 5.6 times and the risk of pain in the shoulder by 5.2 times. Not doing enough physical activity increased the risk of neck pain 2.9 times, the risk of shoulder pain 5.6 times, and the risk of back pain 3.0 times. Conclusion: Physical activity level and musculoskeletal disorders were found to be related. In future studies, the relationship between which level of physical activity and which musculoskeletal disorder can be investigated.
