ABSTRACT: The study determined the correlates of Static Working Posture among office workers in selected schools along Parañaque City. A descriptive correlational design was used and was conducted in 3 different schools. Thirty-five office workers were purposively selected and participated in the study, 21% of which belong to the age range of 18-29 years old and 51.43% of the subjects work 8 hours a day with no history of neck trauma or surgery to the neck. The main outcome measures were correlations between static working postures assessed using Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) scale, neck disability assessed using the Neck Disability Index (NDI), Neck pain assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), psychosocial factors such as job satisfaction and demographic factors including age and number of working hours assessed using a Personal Data Sheet. The results showed there is a significant relationship between neck pain, neck disability, job satisfaction, age, and working hours with the office worker's static working posture.
