| Research Abstract |
In recent years, the number of care workers with lower-back pain has been rapidly increasing. In response this situation, a questionnaire survey was administered to clarify useful occupational safety and health activities for lower-back pain prevention and workload reduction. With this survey, the relationship between the incidence rate of lower-back pain and care workers' activities in nursing homes was investigated. Consultation with and instruction from the person in charge and the use of a manual about care methods were associated with the incidence rate of lower-back pain and discomfort. The results found that these activities were useful in preventing care workers' lower-back pain.
