    Author: Schwanitz HJ, Riehl U, Schlesinger T, Bock M, Skudlik C, Wulfhorst B.
    Journal: Int Arch Occup Environ Health; 2003 Jun; 76(5):374-81. PubMed ID: 12719982.
    Abstract:
    Health education is effective in primary, secondary and tertiary prevention of occupational skin disorders, as clearly demonstrated by interventional studies carried out at the University of Osnabrueck. Health education may intervene with (a) habituated behaviour of affected employees and (b) the condition of working environments. In conclusion, prevention of occupational skin diseases and maintenance of health can be achieved by the conditioning of individual behaviour via specific educational programmes in addition to dermatological care.
