Around one third of hairdressers suffers from repetitive strain injury (RSI) or has back trouble and one fifth has some form of eczema, the ministry of social affairs reports on Monday.
The ministry will now send inspectors into 1,000 hairdressing salons between now and February to see if staff are sufficiently protected against physical strain and chemical substances.
