Results: Craniovertebral angle of 100 bank employees was measured. Forward head posture is identified by measuring Craniovertebral angle. Measurement of Craniovertebral angle is from C7 spinous process to tragus of ear. Majority of the employees observed as having forward head posture. Forward head posture is common in all age groups, mean age group in males is 22-44 years and normal Craniovertebral angle in them is about 48.8°.
