| Summary: | 碩士 === 中華大學 === 工業研究所 === 84 === Cumulative Trauma Disorders are the injuries occurred in
the muscle, tendon, and never tissue in the body regions of
workers. In recent years,the number of identified CTD
in industry in many countries is increasing which make
CTD a global occupational safety and health problem.
Semiconductor industry is one of the most leading high-
tech industries in Taiwan. The working population in the
industry increased rapidly in the past fifteen years.
The objective of this research was to investigate the
prevalence of CTD in the semiconductor manufacturers.
Standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaires were
collected form nine major semiconductor manufacturing
companies in Hsinchu Science Industrial Park. Among the
518 subjects interviewed, 74% reported musculoskeletal
symptoms. Most of the symptoms reported were "pain". Among the
subjects who reported sympotoms,65% of them responded
that their work and/or leisure activities were
affected adversely by the symptoms.sixteen seven of
those believed that their sympotoms were related fully or
partially to their work.What most workers did to their
symptoms were "nothing", "massage", and "rest".Most
symptoms reported were in the neck,low back, shoulder, and
foot/ankle.The symptoms in those body regions might be
attributed to both the work and workplace disgen which
implied that ergonomic intevention in semiconductor
industy were essentiae to improveeoryplace this
symptom is, all or part of them, involving in the workplace
Safety.
