Abstract: Construction is one of the most hazardous industries as some key construction materials such as wet concrete and paints expose workers to chemical irritants that are harmful. Studies have shown that exposure to chemical irritants causes symptoms of skin diseases that impact workers and projects negatively. Therefore, it is important to understand how hazard control methods relate with the prevalence in order to effectively control the chemical irritant hazards to protect workers.
