dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND: Low back pain (LBP) is a common public health problem resulting in workforce loss. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the LBP status and its affecting factors among drivers in a city in southeast Turkey. METHODS: This cross-sectional questionnaire survey study was conducted among 323 drivers. The chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: The mean age of the drivers was 41.7 +/- 11.5 years (min: 19, max: 70), and 83.9% were married, and all were men. LBP was found in 59.4% of drivers. It was significantly higher in drivers with poor socioeconomic status, dissatisfied with their life, having a chronic illness, physically inactive, having sleep disorders, exposed to bad road conditions, prolonged vibration, high physical- psychological workload, and a family history of LBP (p < 0.05). There was no significant association between age, education level, and BMI with LBP (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: There is limited study on this subject in Turkey. Further studies can raise awareness about this issue and create an educational plan.en_US
