- Title
Is occupational sun exposure important for squamous cell carcinoma risk?
- Authors
von Schuckmann, L. A.
- Abstract
The article discusses exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) as an occupational hazard as well as the main risk factor for developing cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). It mentions the growing evidence that a high level of UVR exposure occurs in the occupational setting and that SCC is recognized as an occupational disease. It mentions a population-based study on the relative impact of occupational versus nonoccupational UVR exposure.
