Based on previous studies prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in computer users is high. The aim of this study was evaluate the risk of musculoskeletal disorders using Rapid Office Strain Assessment (ROSA) method in computer users.

Data analysis was performed with SPSS 20 and descriptive statistics and ANOVA tests were used.
