This population can be exposed to number of occupational problems such as poor posture, joint pain, prolonged standing, long working hours, missed meals, as well as being subjected to physical injuries. These problems can be reduced if barbershops and hair dressing salon are highly complying with occupational and public health regulatory and operational requirements (OHS and PH) as stipulated in occupational Health and safety Acts of 2003 and the Public Health Act of 2009. However, there are disparities and relaxations in terms of compliance to the OHS and PH. This study aimed at assessing compliance to OHS & PH and associated factors in salons. <br/><br/>Methods: This was a cross sectional study involving all hair dressers and barbers in Nyamagana district.
