Several stressors generate musculoskeletal disorders in drivers. Inadequate sitting, prolonged time in this posture, traffic congestion, long working hours, reduced rest periods, and high weight have been associated with the presence of pain and musculoskeletal disorders. Objectives: To determine if there is an association between seat dimensions and back pain in drivers. Methods: An observational cross-sectional analytical study was carried out in transport company ETS. Múltiples J. SA from the city of Barranca, the population was made up of male drivers. They were evaluated using the Report of the national institutes of health task force on research standards for chronic low back pain, the adequacy to the seat with the Parcells parameters and the anthropometric measurements were considered according to the ISAK method. Results: The survey and anthropometric measurements were carried out on 85 drivers, where approximately 66% of the participants presented low back pain, 32% of the drivers use a seat accessory that generates greater comfort; likewise, 66% of drivers consume some type of painkiller. A correspondence between the difference in anthropometric measurements and the seat dimensions is also shown, where the appropriate seat height and the inadequate back width present a statistically significant association. Conclusions: As a result, it was found that the dimensions of adequate seat height and inadequate backrest width are associated with low back pain in drivers.
