Abstract. Contact dermatitis is inflammation of the skin caused by contact with exogenous substances characterized by itching, redness, scaling, vesicles and papules. Trigger factors for contact dermatitis can come from exposure to chemicals, personal hygiene, duration of contact, and other individual factors. The purpose of this study is to explain the risk factors for contact dermatitis in workers. The method used is a literature study by collecting several previous studies regarding risk factors for contact dermatitis in workers. The results of this study explain contact dermatitis starting from definition, causes, risk factors, pathogenesis, and signs and symptoms. Thus it can be concluded that the risk factors for contact dermatitis can come from exposure to chemicals for a long time, type of work, and other individual factors. Abstrak.
