Occupational Skin Disease

Occupational skin disease refers to skin problems caused or worsened by exposure to certain substances or conditions at work. Common issues include dermatitis (skin inflammation), allergic reactions, or infections due to contact with chemicals, dust, or irritants. These conditions can cause redness, itching, dryness, or cracks, affecting comfort and productivity. Prevention involves proper safety measures like protective clothing and skincare. If untreated, these skin issues can become chronic or lead to more serious health problems. Recognizing early symptoms and seeking medical advice are important for effective management and preventing long-term damage.
