Hospital cleaning workers are at high risk for musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) due to prolonged standing, heavy lifting, bending, pushing-pulling, and repetitive movements. This situation reduces employees' quality of life and leads to workforce loss and economic burden on the health system.\n\nDespite this, the risk levels of cleaning workers are often not adequately assessed and preventive interventions remain limited. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of the Posture Protection Program (POSKOP), developed for hospital cleaning workers, on musculoskeletal discomfort, ergonomic risk levels, and postural awareness.\n\nThe study is planned as a quasi-experimental design to be conducted with 60 cleaning staff working in two public hospitals. Ergonomic risk assessment will be performed using the Ovako Working Posture Analysis System (OWAS) and will be objectively analyzed through developed software.\n\nThe intervention program consists of multi-component elements such as training, individual observation, instant feedback, exercise practices, visual materials (posters and pocket cards), and digital reminders (WhatsApp messages). The intervention is expected to reduce employees' musculoskeletal discomfort levels and increase their ergonomic awareness.",[59,60],"Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders","Ergonomic Risk Exposure",[62,63,64,65],"Hospital cleaning workers","Musculoskeletal disorders","Ergonomic risk","Occupational health","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-05-12",{"date":69,"type":70},"2026-05-15","ACTUAL",{"date":72,"type":53},"2026-11",{"date":74,"type":53},"2027-03",{"name":5,"class":6}]
