“…It is difficult to quantify the cost inherent in the effects of OCD on work productivity which takes into account the duration of absenteeism and the necessity or not to change profession [49]. Many studies have been conducted to evaluate the consequences of OCD on work productivity.…”

Background: Limited epidemiological data are available in France for occupational contact dermatitis (OCD), a non- infectious inflammatory skin condition arising from direct skin contact with substances used in the workplace. Objective: To estimate the occurrence of, and number of workdays lost to, OCD in France. Methods: Descriptive study of all OCD declared by salaried workers and recognised as occupational disease in France over a 4-year period. Results: 10,582 OCD cases were reported, representing 9.6% of all occupational diseases recognised. The estimated annual incidence of OCD recognised was 15.72/100,000 salaried workers (i.e. 146.87/100,000 employees for all occupational diseases). OCD cases were mainly in the construction and public works industries with 3,057 (36.7%) salaried workers affected. In the services sector, OCD predominantly affected employees aged less than 30 years (41%), particularly hairdressers (69%). OCD accounted for the loss of 395,069 working days. Conclusion: OCD represents a significant public health problem in France, particularly for construction workers and hairdressers.

“…Those with severe occupational hand dermatitis at baseline had a higher risk of taking sick leave and job loss in the following year than those with mild cases. The study found no significant improvement in the disease after the change of job [Cvetkovski et al 2006]. Widespread hand dermatitis on initial examination was found to be the greatest factor for a poor long-term prognosis in a third study [Meding et al 2005].…”

“…Poor prognosis was associated with the presence of atopic dermatitis and being 25 years of age or older. Prognosis was not affected by whether the dermatitis was irritant or allergic [Cvetkovski et al 2006]. Widespread hand dermatitis on initial examination was found to be the greatest factor for a poor long-term prognosis in another study [Meding et al 2005].…”
