Workers exposed to chemicals
Thread Content
Workers are exposed to chemicals and infections; first, their skin develops red rashes and itching. After resting for a while, they feel better, but once they return to the workshop, their hands become itchy and swollen again. How should this be treated? Should I go to a hospital specialized in occupational diseases?
Have you figured out which chemicals it is? Treat it symptomatically.
It’s best to go to a specialized hospital for the prevention and treatment of occupational diseases, as they are more professional. Of course, if it’s just ordinary materials, you can also use the designated hospital of your company.
If it is an allergy to the chemicals in contact, a diagnosis must be obtained at a specialized dermatology hospital. If this is indeed the case, it is possible to request to be transferred from the current job position, and the employer is obligated to arrange such a transfer.
If it’s an allergy, go to the hospital first to get it treated; the employer can then consider assigning employees with allergies to suitable positions!
