Objective: to analyze the relationship between musculoskeletal pain and work posture in university administrative personnel. Method: Descriptive observational study. Results and Conclusions: In the analysis of musculoskeletal pain dimensions, it was found that: neck (67%), dorsal-lumbar (57%) and wrist-hand (50%) are the areas that most participants report discomfort. Elbow, forearm and shoulder are the areas with the lowest percentage of symptom description with 30% and 13% respectively. There is a significant incidence among the variables under study: musculoskeletal pain is significantly related to work posture, so that better ergonomic conditions for the collaborators would allow better comfort and performance in their activities, with less affectation to their musculoskeletal system.
