Socioeconomic position and low-back pain – the role of biomechanical strains and psychosocial work factors in the GAZEL cohort
Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 10/08/09

Plouvier S et al. – The prevalence of low–back pain for >30 days was 13.6%. The prevalence of low–back pain adjusted for age was significantly higher for blue–collar workers and clerks than for managers. The number of socioeconomic disparities observed was significantly reduced when biomechanical strains were taken into account; adjusting for psychosocial factors had little impact. In this population, occupational exposures – especially biomechanical strains – played an important role in occupational class disparities for persistent or recurrent low–back pain.
