Our expert team provides practical insight and actionable recommendations.
Skin surveillance is a process of regularly monitoring the skin health of workers exposed to irritants, chemicals, or physical agents to detect early signs of occupational skin disease.
Employees who frequently handle chemicals, solvents, wet work, or skin irritants—such as cleaners, hairdressers, laboratory staff, food prep, or manufacturing roles—should have skin surveillance.
Assessments usually include a questionnaire, visual inspection of skin, patch testing (if an allergic contact is suspected), and advice on protective equipment and hygiene.
Typically conducted at baseline, periodically (often annually), or whenever new irritants are introduced or skin symptoms emerge.
If early signs are found, guidance is provided on control measures — such as changing substances, using protective gloves, improving washing protocols — and referral to specialist medical review if needed.
Yes. All personal medical information is handled under strict clinical governance and data protection laws; only required summary results are shared with management.
Whether you’re planning a new surveillance programme or reviewing existing arrangements, we’re here to help.
