work related skin condition

Work-related skin conditions can affect people in a wide range of occupations and can be quite painful and uncomfortable.

Your employer owes you a duty to ensure that your skin is not exposed to, or come into contact with, substances such as chemicals. Your hands can also be affected if they are wet for long periods of time while at work. Typical work related skin conditions include Dermatitis (also known as eczema), allergic reactions and skin cancer.

Typical occupations effected can include:

  • construction workers
  • caterers
  • dentists
  • hairdressers
  • health service workers
  • mechanics
  • metal workers
  • printing industry
