Brief Summary:
This study evaluates a workstation ergonomics program at Al-Baha University aimed at reducing work-related musculoskeletal symptoms among university employees who use computers regularly. The program includes an ergonomics self-assessment of the workstation, individualized guidance on proper workstation setup and posture, and practical recommendations to improve daily work habits. Participants will be followed for approximately four weeks, and changes in musculoskeletal symptoms and related outcomes will be assessed before and after the program, compared with a usual-practice control group.
Detailed Description:
This is a controlled, non-randomized pre-post study conducted among university employees at Al-Baha University. Eligible participants will be allocated to either an ergonomics intervention group or a usual-practice control group. The intervention consists of a structured workstation ergonomics package that includes: (1) completing a validated workstation self-assessment checklist, (2) receiving individualized feedback and practical recommendations to optimize workstation arrangement and working posture, and (3) brief reminders to support adherence during the follow-up period. Assessments will be performed at baseline and at the end of follow-up (approximately four weeks). The primary objective is to determine whether the ergonomics program is associated with improvement in musculoskeletal symptoms compared with the control condition under real-world workplace settings.
