6. WORKING CONDITIONS

6.1 Working environment

Generally, the Aesthetic Therapy Supervision personnel work under similar operating
hours as other members of the cosmetology organization/company. However, they may
also work in shifts or overtime. People working full-time in these occupations may work
more than 40 hours a week. This often includes evenings and weekends, when beauty
salons and spas are busiest. . Aesthetic personnel either work for an employer or can be
self-employed in a variety of environments such as wellness centres, salon, health
centres, health farm, recreation and centres. Most beauty salons are stand-alone
facilities, but some may be located in hotels, cruise ships, and department stores.

and the team performance since this will reflect industries image and reputation. They are
expected to work within their operational scope and ethics that portray their
professionalism. They should keep abreast of new developments technology and global
trends in the industry in order to excel in the rapidly changing health and wellness sector.

vi
6.2 Issues Related To Area of Work

Aestheticians and those in related occupations usually work in clean, pleasant


surroundings with good ventilation since the client’s comfort is of the utmost importance.
Good health and stamina are important because these workers must stand a great deal.
Prolonged exposure to some chemicals may be hazardous and cause irritation, so
special care must be taken when working with these chemicals. Personnel in this field
also required to adhere to safety and security procedures, statutory/regulatory bodies’
requirements in order to protect self and public rights as their job scope involve in
maintaining human health and wellness.

7. EMPLOYMENT PROSPECTS

7.1 Malaysian Market

The IMP3 leverages upon the strengths and capabilities of existing industries and the
country’s resources as well as its experiences of the previous plans, adjusted to reflect
developments and opportunities in the global, regional and domestic environments. With
this in mind, emphasis is given to technological upgrading, attracting and generating
quality investments, developing innovative and creative human capital and integrating
Malaysian industries and services into the regional and global networks and supply
chains. The Malaysian economy is targeted to grow at an average of 6.3% YOY during
the entire IMP3 period (2006-2020) after having expanded an average of 4.6%YOY from
1996-2005. (Third Industrial Master Plan -IMP3)

The outlook for beauty and personal care in Malaysia remains favourable, with the
majority of categories expected to show healthy growth in volume and constant value
terms over the forecast period. The development of the entire market will continue to be
underpinned by economic improvements, increasing image consciousness among
Malaysian consumers and the growing influence of international beauty and fashion
trends. At the same time, new launches and marketing activities will help to sustain
growth in volume and constant value sales for individual product categories. In particular,
several categories are expected to benefit from the introduction of new added value
products that offer multiple functions or advanced formulas for more effective results, as
well as from the launch of new gender- and age-specific products. High profile advertising
campaigns that feature local and international celebrities and improvements in
distribution via health and beauty retailers’ chains will also bolster the development of
individual product categories.
Calculating job prospects for people working in the beauty sector is always somewhat of
a gamble: after all, whenever an economic downturn hits, luxury goods and services are
always amongst the first areas to be hit the hardest, and it is a simple fact that the
industry depends upon clients with a certain level of disposable income in order to
survive. However, this having been said, the number of beauty salons and day-spas that
can be found in so many of the towns and cities is a testament to the fact that the beauty

vii
industry is also one of the oldest and most established areas of work: after all, as long as
there are humans, we will want to look and feel healthy and at our best, and this is a very
real need that the beauty industry serves. Therefore, if you do manage to find yourself
work in this sector and get a foot on the ladder of beauty therapy, your prospects for a
long and varied career should be good. If, for example, anyone that willing to undertake
one of the various different training opportunities available to you on one of the many part
time courses that are offered by colleges and educational institutions throughout the
country, you will gain the skills necessary to further your career whilst still maintaining
your current position. As your skill-set and level of experience increase, you might find
yourself able to branch out into management, whether as a middle-manager or,
eventually, the owner of your own business. At this point, of course, the sky is the limit in
terms of your prospects, as the expansion of your salon will only be limited by the custom
that you can find for yourself and your employees through advertising or word-of-mouth.
