Occupational Health Complaints Among Physical Education Teachers: A Scoping Review of Musculoskeletal, Vocal, Hearing, Respiratory, Injury-Related, Cardiometabolic, and Work-Limiting Outcomes

Background/Objectives: Physical education teachers play an important role in school health promotion, but their own occupational health has received limited attention. Their work involves movement demonstration, prolonged standing, equipment handling, sport participation, vocal projection, noise exposure, and outdoor or indoor environmental demands. This scoping review aimed to map evidence on occupational health complaints and disorders among physical education teachers and closely related exercise-teaching professionals meeting a functional occupational definition.
