Abstract:
Bus drivers, as an important occupational group in urban public transportation system, are prone to suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) due to prolonged fixed postures and repetitive movements. The T/WSJD 14.9-2024 Ergonomic Guidelines for the Prevention of Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders: Part 9: Bus Driving Work is a recommended standard developed to prevent WMSDs among bus drivers. This standard, guided by the principles of T/WSJD 14.1-2020 Ergonomic Principle for the Prevention of Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders: Part 1: General Principles, is based on a preliminary work of comprehensive review of domestic and international research, workplace on-site surveys and questionnaires, data analysis, and factor identification. It defines the scope of application, identifies relevant risk factors and potential affected body parts, and offers ergonomic solutions in the form of intervention examples. The issuance of this guideline as a organization standard will facilitate the promotion and implementation of intervention measures.
