| Summary: | The article summarises the main findings of a systematic literature review on sex work in Slovenia published between 1990 and 2020. The main aim was to provide a systematic overview of the findings of previous studies on occupational risks in sex work and strategies and policies to reduce them. The results show that sex workers encounter specific occupational risks related to stigma, safety, policies,
health, business, access to services and private life. They use a variety of strategies to reduce them, and setting boundaries for clients is particularly important. To
improve working conditions, studies recommend changing regulation, informing different target groups and establishing accessible and non-stigmatising support
and advocacy programmes for sex workers. In addition, our review highlights the need to facilitate and promote the professionalisation of sex work.
