Abstract: Musculoskeletal complaints could occur in parts of skeletal muscle ranging from very mild to very severe. If skeletal muscles receive static loads for a long time, muscle pain can occur. Street sweeper is a person whose job is to clean the road by using a broom. This study was aimed to determine whether there were relationships between work position and age and musculoskeletal complaints among street sweepers at Kecamaatan Wenang, Manado. This was a descriptive study. We used REBA for measuring work position; interview for age; and Nordic body map for musculoskeletal complaints. The Spearman test of the correlation between work position and musculoskeletal complaints obtained a p-value of 0.003 and an r-value of 0.381 with sufficiently weak correlation. Moreover, the Spearman test of the correlation between age and musculoskeletal complaints showed a p-value of 0.000 and an r-value of 0.529 with a moderate correlation. In conclusion, there was a relationship between work position and musculoskeletal complaints as well as between age and musculoskeletal complaints among street sweeper at Kecamatan Wenang, Manado.
