Popis: Work pattern changes along with the changing socio-technical system. An example of this is the present situation. The increasinginfluence of digital technology and Industry 4.0 is rapidly changing the work pattern and other activities. Most of the jobs presentlyhave typical characteristics of sedentary nature and extensive use of hand and wrist. Due to the current work pattern, hand-wristmusculoskeletal disorder occurrence is on the rise. In this context, it is important to understand the interaction of different risk factorsassociated with wrist disorder. It is also required to formulate predictive models and methods in this regard. To fulfil the researchobjectives, a three-phased study was conducted where the dynamics of wrist disorders with lifestyle and design were initially studied.Further combined risk factors were extracted from data gathered using a questionnaire by PCA. Finally, the model was established,tested in various contexts, and discussed.
