Faktor-Faktor yang Berhubungan dengan Nyeri Punggung Bawah pada Supir Angkot Trayek Latuhalat di Terminal Mardika Kota Ambon

Abstract
Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems experienced by workers, especially those in professions that require prolonged static sitting, such as public transportation drivers. This condition not only impacts work productivity but can also disrupt daily activities and increase the risk of chronic health problems. This study aims to analyze factors associated with the incidence of LBP in public transportation drivers on the Latuhalat route at Mardika Terminal, Ambon City. The study design used an observational analytical approach with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 96 public transportation drivers, and 51 were selected as samples through a purposive sampling technique based on inclusion criteria. The independent variables in this study included driving position, driving duration, age, and length of service, while the dependent variable was low back pain. Data were collected using questionnaires and observation sheets, then analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that all independent variables, namely driving position, driving duration, age, and length of service, had a significant relationship with the incidence of LBP (p < 0.05). Thus, ergonomic factors and workload significantly contribute to the occurrence of NPB in public transportation drivers. Therefore, ergonomic interventions, proportional work hour arrangements, and the implementation of occupational health programs are important steps in reducing the risk of NPB in drivers.
