OCCUPATIONAL HEALTHMORE THAN SKIN DEEP Deb has launched its Deb Stoko range –


the broadest range of products designed specifically for occupational skin care across industrial environments. The portfolio of pre-work creams, hand cleansers and after-work restore creams have been formulated to minimise the risks of skin disease and stress that are common in the workplace.


From manufacturing and engineering to utilities, transportation and warehousing employees in industrial environments are exposed to a variety of skin irritants that result from difficult working conditions. This can lead to visible skin problems ranging from sore, chapped skin through to serious instances of occupational dermatitis.


In the worst cases occupational skin conditions may force employees to be absent from work, hampering


productivity and increasing costs. The consequences of contracting skin conditions can be damaging on a n individual level both in terms of lost income resulting from a prolonged absence from work and the impact on their personal life and general wellbeing. Through the use of Deb Stoko products and by implementing a three-step skin programme: protect, cleanse and restore, industrial managers will be able to

“Occupational skin disease is a serious health issue that goes largely unreported in the workplace: an invisible threat that affects both an organisation’s efficiency and the health and wellbeing of its


employees,” says marketing director Paul Jakeway. “Deb Stoko products are essential for effective skin health.”

workplace equipment provider Slingsby. Under The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 employers must provide adequate and appropriate first aid equipment, facilities and training so that anyone who has an accident at work can receive immediate help and treatment. First aid kits should be


appropriate to the number of employees and suitably stocked depending on specific hazards. All employers should have at least one trained first aider, although workplaces in high-risk


industries and those with large numbers of employees will need a lot more. Slingsby supplies an extensive range of first aid related products and has recently launched a range of locking and ‘pilfer-proof first aid kits. A selection o f first aid dispenser sys plasters to be remove
