Background and purpose: musculoskeletal discomfort Much of the illness and disability employment constitute in the workplace. In order to prevent disorders Need to evaluate ergonomic in the Workplace. This study aimed to the relationship musculoskeletal discomfort with Ergonomic risk factors in jobs Based on the method WERA on the construction project is.
Material and methods: On the this cross - sectional study, Jobs 42 workers (all workers) In the summer of 2014 in a project to build a mosque Tehran refinery martyr Tondgooyan with WERA method is evaluate. On the other hand, of Cornell questionnaires for the Assessment of musculoskeletal discomfort was used. Statistical analysis of the data collected with SPSS 16 software were performed.
Results: The average age of workers 24/7 ± 12/29, Most discomfort in the back and wrist and lowest for the lower leg and buttock. WERA Average final score equals 41/8 ± 78/38 was Which reflects the high-risk tasks For prevalence skeletal disorders is. Back trouble and wrist posture with the job Milling, drilling and other jobs is significant.
Conclusion: ergonomic desk design for milling and inactivity in sitting position, the use of damping and anti-vibration gloves along with Training the importance of the natural posture the drilling and similar tasks, Training of cargo correctly, especially with the method of Scott and Free and avoiding of abnormal posture in construction jobs can be to reduce ergonomic risk factors in the workplace Reduce musculoskeletal disorders.

Background and aim: In order to establish appropriateness between labor and Human, aerobic capacity can be used. The methods which were used in physical labor are mental and physiological assessments. Subjective symptoms of fatigue during physical work are assessed with the Borg scale (RPE) and physiological with heart rate as well. This study aimed to compare the estimation of aerobic capacity (vo2max) with mental conception and physiology among male nurses in one of Tehran's hospitals.
Method: The present study was a cross – sectional analysis. In this study a number of male nurses have participated randomly and by the means of ergo meter were assessed according to Strand protocol. Aerobic capacity was determined by the formula ACSM. Meanwhile at the end of each minute, the intensity of perceived effort (RPE), as well as heart rate are calculated and recorded.
Result: Statistical analysis showed that between aerobic capacity and RPE are significant relationship (P
