The present study has confirmed the concern of previous investigators that professional fishing is a strenuous occupation. We have been able to show that complaints of symptoms from the musculo-skeletal system are common, and that they follow a logical pattern in terms of the influence of a few key parameters, such as age, number of years in the fishing trade, type of fishing and type of working tasks on board. There is reason to believe that these findings provide a sound basis for action-oriented research and a development programme focusing on reducing the risk of fishermen acquiring chronic disorders of the musculo-skeletal system. In a subsequent article we shall present such a programme, which has been carried out for the Swedish fishery.
