The muscle strengths in various postures are still used in the workplace, although mechanization and automation have been continuously accomplished. The aim of this study is to measure the maximum muscle strength and analyze the muscle fatigue during the

Currently, national fishery population is aging gradually due to avoiding fishery by young people as they do for farming. The working condition of fishing industry is very poor due to the bad climate, rough wave, worn tools, and narrow working space which cause the uncomfortable postures. These poor working conditions have strong influence on the health and safety of fishermen and cause the work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). The survey was conducted in this study to investigate the WMSDs symptoms for the fishermen in the coastal fishery. One hundred and twenty five coastal fishermen, especially drift gill net fishermen, participated in this study, and among them 110 responses were analyzed for this study due to the unreliable and insincerity of reponses. The results showed that WMSDs symptoms appeared in various parts of the body such as lower back (84.6%), shoulder (82.7%), and neck (68.2%). The drift gill net fishing require a lot of energy spending and repetitive movement because of the characteristics of the drift gill net fishery and this cause the WMSDs symptoms on back, shoulder, and neck. In this study, WMSDs symptoms of the coastal fishermen were surveyed and related various factors and characteristics were analyzed through ergonomic assessment. The results of this study can provide some basic information to improve the work environment of fishing industry.
