Abstract: Abstract : Background - Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD) are the second largest reason for disability globally. Work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WRMSD) are conditions which are caused or exaggerated by work, though often other activities also aggravate the problems. A watch mechanics work is characterized by long bending and sitting hours, constant forward leaning, and awkward postures. Most of the these tasks involve Static posture And repetitive movements that can lead a watch mechanics at a risk of developing musculoskeletal disorder risk. A full time ( 8 hours daily ) watch mechanics with at least 5 years of working experience undergo musculoskeletal disorders. Aim - The aim of study is to determine the prevalence of forward head posture in watch mechanics community. Objective - To study the prevalence of forward head posture in watch mechanics workers by using cranio- vertebral angle. Method - A descriptive cross – sectional study consisting of 15 watch mechanics. Result - In this study 15 watch mechanics workers were evaluated with mean age of 25 +5 year, with mean working hours 8 + 2 hours and the working experience 25 + 5 years, out of 15 watch mechanics 11 had shown the prevalence of forward head posture that is 73.33% of them had forward head posture. Conclusion - Based on the result the present study which was conducted in watch mechanics workers concluded that prevalence of forward head posture 73.33 % amongst the population.
Keywords: Keywords - Watch mechanics workers, Musculoskeletal disorder
