Abstract Vitamin D deficiency is a significant health issue, particularly among office workers. This literature review emphasizes the availability of evidence on vitamin D deficiency and its impacts on musculoskeletal health and immune functions, especially amongst office workers. A literature search of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science identified relevant studies on the relationship between vitamin D status and musculoskeletal health and infection risks, highlighting the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in office workers due to limited sunlight exposure and sedentary lifestyles. The risks of osteoporosis, muscle weakness, and musculoskeletal pain, as well as impaired immune system function, are carefully examined. Potential intervention strategies include implementing work schedules allowing for outdoor breaks, providing access to vitamin D-fortified foods or supplements, and routine screening for vitamin D levels. Addressing the low level of vitamin D in office workers is essential for promoting musculoskeletal health, supporting immune functions, and enhancing workforce productivity. This review underscores the need for further research and the implementation of evidence-based interventions to mitigate the impact of vitamin D deficiency in this population.
