Abstract: Ergonomic hazards that expose construction workers to include awkward positions, repetitive work, heavy lifting and sustained stationary positions may result in musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and low productivity. This study explores ergonomic risks prevalence among construction workers and analyses the correlation among the work conditions, work awareness, and training. A structured questionnaire was utilized in data collection of 80 respondents and SPSS software was used in data analysis. To be knowledgeable of the trends of physical strain, fatigue, and ergonomic awareness, descriptive statistics, one-way ANOVA, correlation, and chi-square tests were implemented. The findings are that a good percentage of workers are having physical discomfort, with moderate levels of repetitions and still postures. Training and ergonomic equipment, rest break and safety awareness gaps were identified. The paper points to the necessity of planned ergonomic measures, regular safety education, and the participation of the management in the study to minimise health risks of workers and improve their well-being in the construction industry.
