Abstract
The clinical assessment of dermatitis in the workplace is put forward
as a series of four decisions: (1) Is it dermatitis and not psoriasis,
tinea, scabies, etc? (2) Is it contact dermatitis and not atopic, seb
orrhoeic, discoid, stasis or unclassified eczema? (3) Is it irritant c
ontact dermatitis or allergic contact dermatitis? (4) What is/are the
probable cause(s)?
