| Abstract/Description: | Thirty women workers working in brick kiln were selected for the study. Musculoskeletal problems of the workers were identified by using the body map and intensity of pain was recorded by using five point scale (Ranjwan, 2000). The study indicated that musculoskeletal problems of women workers while performing brick carrying activity were very severe in case of neck (70%) and in shoulder (63.3%) and all female workers working in brick kiln faced risk factors i.e. brick fall on leg, burn to hand and eye injuries. Study indicated immediate and urgent need to develop safety measures for female brick kiln workers. |
