It is important to note that Employers are responsible for staff exposed to UV in the course of their employment - such as those involved in the airline, travel, horticultural and construction sectors.
Thus employers have a duty of care to help prevent skin cancers by taking reasonable steps to provide sun protection factors and to detect skin cancer early should it occur. Most melanomas are caused by excessive, intermittent UV exposure. Melanoma is the second most common cancer in the 20 to 39 age group and has a death rate of more than 1 in 4. Detected early, melanoma is 100% treatable. Detected late, it is usually fatal.
We offer the very best sun protection products and skin cancer screening services to the corporate sector
Employee screenings are performed on-site at the employer’s own premises for maximum convenience and minimum of fuss and productivity. |
