Occupation skin diseases is to show laborer as in the production process of exposure to chemical, physical, biological and other occupation of harmful factors that caused the skin disease. With the progress of science and technology, people in the production process of new chemicals and new materials more and more opportunities, thus resulting in the occupation of skin problems are more and more frequent. According to the report, in certain production process, long-term exposure to PCP, tar, lubricants, machinery oil, paraffin wax and other chemical production workers, their occupation skin disease incidence rate can reach more than 15%; while engaged in carbon black production workers, their occupation skin disease incidence rate was high up to 60% and above. Occupation skin diseases in our country has become one of the most common occupation disease.

Occupation skin diseases due to many factors, in clinical manifestations varied, often the same causative factors can induce different clinical manifestations, and the same clinical manifestations can be by different pathogenic factors, and the majority of occupation skin disease and no specific clinical manifestations, so in clinic is easy to be misdiagnosed, therefore recommendations for suspicious patients must as soon as possible to go to the local doctor occupation disease prevention by.

In view of occupation skin diseases and working environment are closely related, so the primary therapeutic approach is to temporarily out of the causative factors generating station, to avoid to contact; other treatment approaches in general no special character, mostly to take symptomatic, anti-inflammatory and other skin diseases and routine treatment effect is very good. The radical measures to strengthen workplace ventilation gas effect, and personal protection measures.
