Description
Many workers struggle with skin diseases ranging from:
- Severe dermatitis
- Bullous disease
- Hidradenitis suppurativa
- Mucous membrane infections
- Chronic skin infections
- Photosensitivity disorders
- Ichthyosis
- Aging
Even cuts and bruises can cause health issues and work-related effects. Gardening or groundskeeping, for example, often entails working with plants with coarse or sharp leaves or branches, from roses to raspberries. Working with these plants can scratch or damage sensitive skin. An HVAC worker might be prone to skin damage working with sheet metal.
The use of Cut Resistant Sleeves will protect the skin on your sensitive arms and hands, with the added benefit of being a safety measure against sharp objects in jobs like meat processing, wood cutting and many others. The hands and fingers are left uncovered for dexterity, although the added use of cut resistant gloves is also recommended for some jobs.
