Skin Conservation for Workplace Health

Work-related skin disease can affect employees across a wide range of occupations. It may be caused or worsened by exposure to physical, chemical, or biological agents, mechanical forces, or even prolonged glove use leading to excessive sweating and hyperhydration.

Skin Conservation is the next step after Skin Surveillance, where skin problems are linked to workplace exposures. We work with both employees and employers to review tasks, exposures, and management practices, addressing risks caused by:

• Hazardous substances
• Incorrect glove type or poor glove use
• Hygiene issues
• Home exposures
• Or a combination of these factors
