We analyzed the demographic and job features of 197 shipyard workers with work-related musculoskeletal disorders(ll/MSDs) compensated by the Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance Act, and the features of the disorders, the causes of operation and the induced behaviors. The three shipbuilding companies surveyed w e r e l o c a t e d i n Busan M e t r o p o l i t a n c i t y arid Cyungsangnam-do. The results were as follows.
1.
The ages of lVMSDs patients in shipyard were 43.6*
8.6 and the job tenure was 14.3t
5.6. The 40's of them was 40.1%. and the 30's was 29.4%. Patients less than 5 year-work duration were 85.3%, and ones more than 16 year-work duration 6.6%. In occupations, welders were 32.5%, pre-welders 17.3%, and settirig engineers 6.6%.2. T h e causes o f WhlSDs i n shipyard w e r e works(95.4%) and outer crash or accident shock (3.6%).
Based on the standard of the NlOSH induced behaviors, the causes were awkward posture (62.9%). excessive
movenient(l9.3%) and repetitive rnovenient(l3.7%).
3. The compensated WhISDs by body part was the highest.
36%,
in the spines, 32.0% in both the upper limbs and the spines, and 14% in the upper limbs. The number of cases of WhlSDs in body were96
in the cervical, 79 in the lumbar and 72 in the shoulders.4.
As a result of chi-square test(f) between diagnosis and operation in body, welding and spot welding had the most diagnoses in all parts of the body among other occupations. Chi-square testw) between diagnosis and induced behavior in body showed that awkward postures recorded the highest rate and repetitive movements was the second.5. T h e m o s t hazardous o c c u p a t i o n was the welding(incidence rate=9.7) and the most hazardous behavior was the awkward posture.

Table 1. Definition of ind~~ced behavior
Induced behavior Definition
Response of body Instant movement, action, sudden noise. surprise, tension, or stress
Excessive movement Instant movement or action like pushing, drawing, lifting, spinning and catching which need much muscle power
Repetitive movement Repetitive movement or action which may bother our body in related with treating objects and need little niuscle power
Awkward posture A long time work in certain posture which can burden on our body because of defect of work process
Vibration and cold Vibration and cold which may cause body problem
Outer crash Getting worse from previous accidents before having diseases Sharp side contact Sharp side contact which may cause body problen~
Accident shock Diseases resulted from accidents
