The social partners Coiffure EU and UNI Europa within the framework of the European Social dialogue adopted a joint statement for the protection of occupational safety and health (OSH) in the hairdressing sector. The declaration aims at preventing musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) as an output of ErgoHair, a EU-funded project that promotes effective ergonomic workstations in the small and medium sized hairdressing salons.

The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) also partakes in the efforts to reduce OSH risks in the hairdressing trade.

National hairdressing OiRA tools in a range of countries are also available.
