Abstract: This study aims to examine the interaction between predictive factors (risk factors) such as individual factors, physical factors, psychosocial factors, workload and mental health that contribute to musculoskeletal discomfort among traffic police members in Sabah. This study was conducted using a cross-sectional design through a survey method using a questionnaire. A total of 262 respondents participated in this study among traffic police officers and members who carry out traffic control duties. The findings of the study found that there is a significant relationship between predictive factors and MSD among traffic police members, namely physical factors (r = .394; k < .01), workload (r = .427; k < .01), psychosocial factors ( r = .499; k < .01), mental health (r = .447; k < .01) and individual factors (r = .014; k < .01). Studies on MSDs among traffic police officers show that there is a need to not only study risk factors but also to develop interventions to minimize MSDs in the policing profession.
