“…Schorzenie to charakteryzuje się występowaniem zmian skórnych po kontakcie z czynnikiem drażniącym, przy czym najczęstszą lokalizacją jest skóra rąk. W zależności od czynnika drażniącego choroba może mieć charakter ostry (w razie kontaktu z silnymi czynnikami drażniącymi -zmiany skórne przypominające oparzenie chemiczne) lub przewlekły (słabe czynniki drażniące) [21,24]. Najczęstszymi czynnikami wywołującymi kontaktowe zapalenie skóry z podrażnienia Dermatology Review/Przegląd Dermatologiczny 2019/4 in this case include chromates (the most prevalent chromium exposure factors are: cement, foundry sand, worn-out greases and industrial oils, galvanizing liquids, tanning chemicals, coolants, shielding gases, and anti-corrosive liquids), rubber chemicals, formaldehyde, resins, and glues.…”

“…Reported cases of ir-w miejscu pracy są substancje chemiczne, a jednym z głównych czynników ryzyka jest wykonywanie pracy w mokrym lub wilgotnym otoczeniu [25]. Występowaniu takich dermatoz sprzyja zwłaszcza atopowe zapalenie skóry [24].…”

“…Pokrzywka zawodowa ma zwykle charakter immunologiczny, This dermatosis presents itself within the irritant contact sites, while the most prevalent site is the skin of the hands. Depending on the irritant, the disease might be of acute (caused by strong irritantschanges similar to chemical burns) or chronic nature (caused by weak irritants) [21,24]. The most common factors triggering irritant contact dermatitis at workplaces are chemicals, while one of the most important risk factor in this case is performing work in wet or moist conditions [25].…”

Occupational diseases are characterised by a diverse aetiology. The causative agents may be chemical, physical or biological. In the past 14 years there has been a decrease in the number of reported occupational dermatoses in Poland. In 2017 occupational dermatoses ranked 7 th among all occupational diseases, whereas in 2003 they were in the 5 th position. There were 1694 recorded cases of cutaneous occupational diseases. The most common entity was allergic contact dermatitis (80.5% of total occupational skin disease cases), while hands were the most frequent location of occupational dermatoses. The number of registered cases of occupational diseases is low compared to other European countries. This indicates that this number may not reflect the true scale of disease incidence and may lead to underestimation of the problem of occupational dermatoses in Poland. StRESZcZEniE Choroby zawodowe skóry mają bardzo zróżnicowaną etiologię. Czynnikami sprawczymi mogą być czynniki chemiczne, fizyczne, jak również biologiczne. W czasie ostatnich 14 lat w Polsce stwierdzono zmniejszenie liczby rozpoznawanych chorób zawodowych skóry. W 2017 roku dermatozy znalazły się na 7. miejscu wśród najczęściej rozpoznawanych chorób zawodowych, podczas gdy w 2003 roku zajmowały 5. pozycję. W latach 2003-2017 rozpoznano łącznie 1694 przypadki chorób zawodowych skóry. Najczęściej rozpoznawaną jednostką chorobową było kontaktowe alergiczne zapalenie skóry (80,5% wszystkich chorób zawodowych skóry), a najczęstszą lokalizacją dermatoz zawodowych była skóra rąk. Wydaje się, że w Polsce liczba dermatoz zawodowych jest niedoszacowana. Świadczy o tym niewielka liczba rejestrowanych przypadków w porównaniu z innymi krajami Unii Europejskiej. Liczba obecnie wykrywanych chorób zawodowych skóry nie odzwierciedla rzeczywistej zapadalności.

“…Indeed, in the TDL model, these questions are directly connected to ontological issues in order to highlight that the existence of a worker is dependent on these different questions. For instance, a more ergonomic work station can really affect the very existence of an employee (Marek & Bugajska, 2010): such an employee with or without this station is therefore not exactly the same.…”

As an introduction, in a first part, we give a critical analysis of the standard Human Capital theory, with the help of some "traditional" accounting concepts. In particular, we show that this theory is based on a (deliberate) confusion between assets and capital. In order to avoid this issue, we introduce the "Triple Depreciation Line" (TDL) (financial) accounting model, developed in (Rambaud & Richard, 2015), as a concrete way to design an accounting model able to treat "Human Capital", as a real accounting capitala matter of concernthat firms have to protect and maintain. Therefore, in a second part, after a brief presentation of this accounting model, we explain how to apply it to the "Human Capital" case. This application allows a discussion about some key issues about this notion and the difference between the standard perspective on Human Capital and the "accounting" one. Finally, we present some important consequences of this accounting model for the Human Capital: the disappearance of the concept of wage and the possibility to report repeated uses of the Human Capital directly in the balance sheet.

ObjectiveTo determine whether investment in preventive measures by a Colombian insurer reduces rates of work‐related injuries and results in positive returns from these investments.MethodsThe study is based on monthly panel data of 2011‐2015 of 303 medium and large companies affiliated with a private insurer in Colombia. We undertook regression modeling analysis to assess the effectiveness of incremental investments in occupational health and safety (OHS) prevention measures. The cost‐benefit analysis is from the insurer's perspective.ResultsInvestment in OHS per full‐time equivalent was statistically significant at the 1% level. We estimated that 4919 injuries were averted through these investments, resulting in the avoidance of $3 949 957 in costs. Our results suggest that the investments were worth undertaking from the insurer's perspective.ConclusionsThis paper provides new empirical evidence on the effectiveness and cost‐benefit of OHS investments in a middle‐income country. Incremental investment in OHS can be effective and cost‐beneficial.
