  • Abstract: Musculoskeletal disorders are entities which have an impact on health –related to quality of life, given the overall impact on the physical condition, psychological and functional well-being. These entities generate a large number of allowances and at times depending on the degree of loss of earning capacity, the disability. Objective: To determine the association of loss of earning capacity with the comorbidity of musculoskeletal disorders and other factors associated. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was performed based on data and medical records. The initial records were 1427 cases of which 513 had a diagnosis of DME and 240 of this requested a lost capacity of work to the Board of regional disability of Huila in the period from 2009 to 2012. Results: The distribution of the loss of earning capacity generated by the DME permanent partial disability was 73.3 % and 26.7% disability. A significant association with respect to age (p = 0.002), where the range of 50-65 years had higher loss of earning capacity was found; gender (p = 0.047), the most prevalent disability female (34.7%) than males (23.2%) and comorbidity (p = 0.019), where musculoskeletal disorders and depressive disorders generated greater loss of earning capacity. It wasn’t found a significant association with education (p = 0.167), or occupation (p = 0.442) or economic activity (p = 0.118). In multivariate analysis was found a significant association with the common origin (OR = 4.028 , 95% CI 2.010 , 8.072 ), female gender (OR = 2.565 , 95% CI: 1.140 , 5.771 ) , and the level of technical education ( OR = 12.208 , 95% CI : 1.372 , 108,634 ). Conclusions: Comorbidity generated greater loss of earning capacity, although the factors that were associated together were older age, female gender, the common origin and the less educated.
