Objectives: Only a few studies have analyzed the health of self-employed workers. This cross-sectional study is the first to compare health status among craftsmen joiners and paid joiners. Material and Methods: Clinical and paraclinical data for self-employed craftsmen and employees were collected by occupational health doctors according to a standardized protocol and compared. Health data and professional status relationships were analyzed by logistic regression. Results: A total of 171 craftsmen and 196 paid workers were included. Craftsmen had more dermatologic pathologies (odds ratio (OR) = 2.67, p < 0.05), ear/nose/throat symptoms (OR = 3.38, p < 0.001), pulmonary symptoms (OR = 2.46, p < 0.05), musculoskeletal symptoms (OR = 3.09, p < 0.001), and abnormal audiogram (OR = 3.50, p < 0.001). The FEV₁ was significantly lower among craftsmen (p < 0.01), independently of tobacco smoke exposure. Conclusions: This survey highlights a high morbidity rate among self-employed craftsmen, suggesting that among woodworkers, professional status can be a risk factor for health. The preventive medical system for craftsmen has to be rethought to guarantee better safety for this population.

Tekst jest prezentacją prywatnej kolekcji narzędzi stolarskich powstałej w Warszawie w latach 1982– 2020, obejmującej przeszło 400 narzędzi, nie tylko polskich, lecz także: niemieckich, austriackich, angielskich, francuskich i amerykańskich. Przedstawia genezę powstania kolekcji, metody jej rozwoju, strukturę wewnętrzną i sposoby opracowania zbioru. Prezentacji towarzyszą uwagi dotyczące rangi kolekcji narzędzi – a szerzej obiektów nie cieszących się społecznym prestiżem – w zjawisku kolekcjonerstwa rozumianym jako element „luksusowej konsumpcji na pokaz”, a także pierwsze próby porównania realiów kolekcjonerstwa i miejsca narzędzi stolarskich w hierarchii obiektów muzealnych w Polsce i w krajach europejskich.

The paper focuses on a private collection of woodworking tools created in Warsaw in 1982–2020, covering over 400 items, mainly Polish, but also German, Austrian, English, French, and American. It presents the genesis of the collection, methods of its development, internal structure, and the collection study modes. The presentation is accompanied by comments dealing with the importance of a collection of tools, or more broadly of items not widely considered to be socially prestigious, seen against the phenomenon of collecting perceived as an element of ‘luxury consumption for show’, as well as by the first attempts at comparing collecting realities and the position of woodworking tools in the hierarchy of museum objects in Poland and European countries.
