This study attempted to analyze whether the work-related musculoskeletal disorders of estheticians cause the pain of physical subjective symptoms according to working environment and working posture and which factors have effects on the health status. For this purpose, the questionnaire research was conducted for 464 estheticians working in Seoul and the metropolitan area. The working environment and the working posture of the face had a significant interactional effect on the pain of the waist and the cervical portion but the working posture of the whole body did not have a significant main and interactional effect. An attempt was made to analyze the health status of the body according to the working environment1(bed height) and the working posture of the face. As a result, it was found that the pain of the waist and the hip, and the wrist and the hand occurred in the working posture of the face and the pain of the ankle and the foot occurred significantly in the working posture of the whole body. An attempt was made to investigate the interactional effect of the working environment and posture on the health status of the body. The pain of the wrist and the hand occurred significantly in the working posture of the face and the whole body. This indicates that the occurrence of pain on the regions such as wrist and hand was associated with the working posture and the health status of the regions such as waist, hip, wrist and hand was associated with both the working environment and posture. This study presents the basic material for policy to prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders.
