Univariate analysis of the association between neck flexion at work and neck pain for workers with a low, medium, and high endurance time of the neck muscles
Variable (% of working time) | Low endurance time Crude RR (95% CI)4-151 | Medium endurance time Crude RR (95% CI) | High endurance time Crude RR (95% CI) |

>60% time | 2.504-150 (1.11 to 5.61) | 1.32 (0.52 to 3.35) | 1.11 (0.34 to 3.65) |
Neck flexion ⩾45°: | |||
