مستخلص: Background: Sex workers are men, women or transgender people who have sex in exchange for money or goods. Self-employed sex workers solicit clients independently from a third-party. Self-employed sex workers are at risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections (STIs) through their work. We performed a cross-sectional study, using an Internet survey conducted in 2019-2020 aiming to establish sexual risk behaviour and STI testing behaviour among female and male self-employed sex workers.
Results: A total of 76 female self-employed sex workers (FSW) and 79 male self-employed sex workers (MSW) completed the survey. Both FSW and MSW more often had sex with partners of the opposite sex during work (65.8% FSW, 61.6% MSW) and in their private life (63.3% FSW; 64.5% MSW). During vaginal sex 35.7% of FSW and 29.6% of MSW did not always use a condom. Inconsistent condom use was observed in 35.7% of FSW and 29.6% of MSW during vaginal sex, 46.2% of FSW and 35.7% of MSW did not always use a condom during receptive anal sex. The majority of both FSW and MSW tested for STIs in the past year (67.1% FSW; 67.7% MSW) and 67.5% were aware of the possibility of low-threshold testing at an STI clinic. In the past year, 11.6% of FSW and 8.1% of MSW had an STI.
Conclusion: The reported STI positivity rate among self-employed sex workers was not very high. However, STI prevention efforts remain important considering the low compliance with condom use during sex work. Moreover, not testing for STIs in the past year was substantial with one-third of both FSW and MSW and one-third of both FSW and MSW being unaware of the possibility of low-threshold testing at an STI clinic, warranting efforts to increase testing uptake in this population.
