Tiivistelmä
BACKGROUND: There is an increasing trend of work absenteeism and early exit from work life as a result of ill health or disability, partly due to strain and pain at work.

AIM: To describe work related perceived strain and pain, and how this relates to perceived work ability.

METHOD: A cross-sectional study design was employed in the present study. Questionnaire data was collected in early 2009 (January – February) from 1,398 food factory workers (females, n= 890; males, n= 508) aged 20 – 66 years, comprising both blue collar (n= 1,074: females, n= 680; males, n=394) and white collar (n= 324: females, n= 210; males, n= 114) workers. Response rate was 72% of the total 1,481 questionnaires distributed, while the rest gave no consent to be studied. The mean age was 41.45, while standard deviation was 11.548. Data analysis was carried out by chi-square test and multinomial logistics regression, using SPSS versions 16.0 and 17.0.

RESULTS: All the variables within pain and physical strain categories were associated with work ability, before and after adjustment for potential confounders (age, gender and staff task group).

CONCLUSION: Musculoskeletal pain and perceived exertion has significant impact on perceived work ability among the food factory workers.

Asiasanat:Musculoskeletal disorders, pain, physical strain, perceived exertion, work ability.
