Abstract

This paper aims to inform and to raise awareness of
the existence of people with at least one tattoo in Romanian
society. It is also hoped to increase the chances of integrating
these people into Romanian society and at the workplace. In the
same time, the present paper wishes to investigate whether the
possession of a tattoo affects positively the self-esteem of these
individuals and at the same time their tolerance level.
