Abstract

The result verified that 12.9% of absence ofdisease and 5.9% of absence of accident experienced these symptoms. Both absence from disease and absencefrom accident showed body part symptoms related to neck and shoulder.This study ascertained the relationship between fire fighters' absence and their musculoskeletal disorderrelated observable symptom. The author hopes this study to be used as a basis of precautionary program forabsence management.
