ABSTRACT
Nurses are considered the group of health care professionals more often affected by low-back pain (LBP) (Trinkoff et al., 2003).
Some other studies have investigated aspects related to their work. Aspects like work organization, real characteristics of work activity (Tonges et al., 1998), effects of work on WRMSD, work stressors (Woodcox et al., 1994) (like poor interaction with other health care professionals), and high work demands.
