| Resumen |
Occupational skin diseases found among mechanics are mostly irritation or allergic contact dermatitis. The main chemical irritants include solvents, hydraulic fluids, waste engine oil, scouring agents, fuels, detergents, together with physical irritation factors. The main allergens include biocides, rubber additives, metals and plastics. Etiological diagnosis is based on allergy tests with special series and with products encountered at the workplace. Collective prevention involves all means available to reduce exposure. The type of glove used should be suited to the composition of the various products handled. Medical prevention involves avoiding skin contact with irritants as much as possible, and totally avoiding skin contact with allergens. These diseases are considered occupational in nature according to several lists of compensable occupational diseases in France, depending on the chemicals found in the products used in occupational settings. |
