What You Need to Know
HSA compliance starts with hazard identification. Our assessments focus on the primary drivers of workplace skin disease in Ireland.
Contact Irritant Dermatitis: Accounts for 80% of cases. We screen for exposure to detergents, cutting oils, and “wet work” (prolonged contact >2 hours or 20+ washes daily).
Allergic Contact Dermatitis: A permanent, life-changing sensitization to substances like cement (chromates), resins, or wood dust.
Commercial Risk: Undetected dermatitis leads to increased absenteeism, insurance premium hikes, and potential HSA enforcement actions.
Statutory health surveillance is a legal requirement where residual risk remains despite control measures.
Competent Person Oversight: Our program provides the “periodical review” of employee health mandated by Irish law to identify adverse health changes at the earliest possible stage.
Targeted Screening: We utilize high-accuracy skin questionnaires and professional visual exams of exposed skin (hands, forearms, face) to detect sub-clinical signs of disease.
Prevention over Reaction: Surveillance is a proactive tool to verify that your current PPE and engineering controls are actually working to protect your staff.
