Introduction: Musculoskeletal disorders affect the quality of life of the worker and generate losses to the company. The Standardized Nordic Questionnaire is one of the most used tools worldwide, however, a cultural adaptation and validation has not been carried out in Ecuador. Objective: To determine the cultural adaptation and validation of the Standardized Nordic Questionnaire of musculoskeletal symptoms in workers in the construction sector of the city of Manabí-Ecuador. Methodology: Instrument validation study that included a total of 330 workers from 3 construction companies that worked in the region. The phases were: cultural adaptation, content, criteria, and construct validity, internal consistency and temporal reliability. The statistical tests used were: Cohen’s kappa, Pearson's correlation, factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Results: The culture adaptation was carried out through the committee of experts, the questions met the criteria of Moriyama after two rounds of review. The agreement with the clinical evaluation was between κ = 0.61-1.00 in the last 12 months and κ = 0.53 -0.84 in the previous week. Factor analysis showed the presence of two components in each body region that explain between 74.27% -84.51% of the variance, while Cronbach's alpha varied between 0.90-0.92 and the test-retest agreement was substantial-almost perfect in the symptomatology in the previous year (κ = 0.70-1.00) and the last 7 days (κ = 0.65-0.90). Conclusions: This tool is tropicalized, valid and reliable for the identification of musculoskeletal discomfort in construction workers.
