- Abstract
If employees are threatened to loose their job due to a severe occupational skin disease (OSD), intensive interdisciplinary measures of tertiary individual prevention (TIP) are required. TIP comprises 2-3-weeks in-patient treatment plus intensive health-pedagogic counseling, and consecutive 3-weeks out-patient treatment by the local dermatologists. Each patient (pt) will stay off work for a total of usually 6 weeks to allow full barrier-recovery.
