<br/><br/> ABSTRACT.      Mountaineering is a popular leisure activity and hobby to many Filipinos in different ages.  Many of the hiking sites in the Philippines require having a local tour guide not just to give job opportunities to their locals, but to ensure safety by having those people who are accustomed to the trails of the mountain to lead the activity.  One of the famous hiking places in the Philippines is Mt. Pamitinan, located in Rodriquez, Rizal.  Mount Pamitinan, a 426 MASL-high mountain is famous for its rocky spots ideal for breathtaking photos with a view of the Wawa Dam that attracts the tourists, foreign and local alike.  It is considered a minor climb with the forested and rocky terrain.  Those who have tried mountain hiking reported a feeling of pain and fatigue afterward.  The researchers turned their focus on the maountaineering tour guides who are accustomed to every terrain of the mountain they work with.  The respondents of this study were 101 mountaineering tour guides of Mount Pamitinan who passed the inclusion criteria.  The research is about the association of demographic profiles as to sex, age, BMI and professional profile as to working hours per week and length of experience to the occurrence of MSDs.  A survey-interview was conducted with the respondents.  Results showed that majority of the hikers are male (80%) within 30-39 years old with normal body mass index.  No association was found between age and BMI to the occurrence of MSDs.  On the other hand, an association was found in occurring MSDs to females, and with working hours per week and length of experience.  The results showed the high incidence of MSDs in the upper back with females.  With working hours, the study revealed that those who work for less than 10 hours weekly have a high incidence of complaining MSDs specifically in the shoulders, while hips and thighs were greatly affected for those working as mountaineering tour guides on their first 25-36 months.
