Working ergonomically is important for every person. Wherever you work or whatever work you do, it is essential to do it in the right way to avoid complaints, injuries and pain. But the importance and guidelines for ergonomic working vary from sector to sector. We like to explain to you in several blogs what is important for which sector.

A hairdresser is constantly cutting, blow-drying, styling and caring for clients' hair. As a result, a hairdresser often sits in the same position for a long time, making the same repetitive movements.
