Lena Holm, Iben Axén, Eva Skillgate Survey of Health and Work Environment in Hairdressers´ - Members of Union of Commercial Employees and the Swedish Hairdressers Association Lena Holm, Iben Axén, Eva Skillgate 2019-04-28

Background Causes of back and neck pain are multifactorial where various occupational exposure may contribute to such disorders Some but limited evidences that Non-neutral physical load and Poor psycho-social work environment increases the risk of disorders in back/neck Work limiting disorders in the locomotive system are common and one reason why many hairdressers leave their profession. A Finish study report that female hairdressers leave their profession due to disorders in elbow, wrist, neck or shoulder 2-3 times as often as women engaged in commercial work.

Aim of This Survey To, investigate the extent of work limiting disorders in neck/back and/or upper extremities among hairdressers To analyse work-related and health-related factors that may be associated with such disorders To identify hairdressers who do not have work limiting disorders, thus may be eligible to be included in a prospective study with the aim to assess the importance of physical strength and mobility for preventing onset of work hindering disorders in the neck/back and/or upper extremities 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

Methods Collaboration with Union of commercial employees (Handels) and Swedish Hairdressers´ Association (SFSAB) Web based questionnaire to hairdressers who are members of Handels or SFSAB were distributed via E-mail on May 4th ,2017. Two reminders were sent Questions about Working hours, ergonomic equipment, social work climate, etc. General stress Physical activity, smoking Health problems Work limiting pain 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

Methods (cont.) Our goal was to optimise the responds rate, to make the conclusions from the survey generalizable to the target group We announce the study in the member magazines of the two associations where the aim of the project was explained and where the members encouraged to participate in the study The questionnaire was relatively short (10-15 minutes to complete) and was tested also to fit mobile phones The web page was closed down on May 31st Re-coding and analysis performed during the summer of 2017 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

Results – Description of the Study Population The questionnaire was distributed to 1.433 of the hairdressers who are members in Handels and to 2.860 of the members of SFSAB Response rate 24 % and 23 % respectively (n= 346 and 653; total 999 hairdressers) 94% women Age; median 43 years (28 in Handels and 49 in SFSAB) 71% had a hairdresser profiled high school education (marginal group difference) Working hour/week (customers) < 20 hrs 4% 20-30 hrs 18% 31-40 hrs 58 % (70 % Handels and 51% SFSAB) > 40 hrs 21% (8% Handels and 27% SFSAB) Average number of costumers per week: 30 59% Wellness benefits (71% Handels and 53% SFSAB) 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

Strengths and Limitations Members in the two largest associations for hairdressers in Sweden were approached (covering the target population) Valid and frequently used questionnaires However….. Less than 1/4th responded to the survey (major limitation of the generalizability) 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

Conclusions - The Study Participants in This Survey……on Group Level Somewhat higher general stress compared to a reference population In general, good social work climate Common with performance limiting pain/ache in back/neck and/or upper extremities Higher probability to have such disorders if high general stress, work hindering comorbidity, overweigh/obesity and/or less good social work climate The results are not generalizable to hairdressers outside the study population due to low participation rate (response rate) 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate

THANK YOU! Union of Commercial Employees – Handels financed the survey, contact information to the eligible hairdressers Swedish Hairdressers´ Association sending the questionnaire to their members The participating hairdressers 2019-04-28 Eva Skillgate
