Low back pain is pain in the lower back that may be caused by prolonged sitting accompanied by an incorrect sitting position, which can contribute to low back pain complaints. This study aimed to determine the relationship between sitting duration and sitting position with low back pain complaints among staff at the Aceh Besar District Attorney's Office. This study used an observational analytical method with a cross-sectional design and primary data. The study population consisted of 47 respondents who met the criteria and were selected using the total sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires distributed directly to the respondents and analyzed using the Spearman Rank (Rho) test. The results showed a significant relationship between sitting duration and low back pain complaints (p-value = 0.013; r = 0.359), with a positive direction and low strength. In addition, there was a significant relationship between sitting position and low back pain complaints (p-value = 0.002; r = -0.432), with a negative direction and moderate strength. These findings indicate that longer sitting duration tends to be associated with increased low back pain complaints, while a more ergonomic sitting position tends to reduce low back pain complaints. Thus, the results of the analysis show that there are significant relationships between sitting duration and low back pain complaints and between sitting position and low back pain complaints among staff at the Aceh Besar District Attorney's Office.
