The prevention of skin diseases is accepted as an important part of occupational dermatology. Irritant dermatitis in particular, is a skin disease which can be avoided by preventional measures. Hence, an early introduction of trainees to preventional measures seems to be necessary to avoid bad habits which then become a matter of routine. The role of the dermatologist is not only the identification of individuals with a higher risk for developing irritant dermatitis, he should also inform his patients about the relevant irritants in their occupation (or of irritants in the household or leisure activities). Prevention by collective measures must be combined with individual measures (like gloves and protective clothing, correct skin cleaning and external creams). Periodical training and motivation of individuals at most risk is of utmost importance, because the best preventive measures are of no effect when they are not used regularly.
皮肤病的预防被视为职业皮肤病学的重要组成部分。特别是刺激性皮炎，这是一种可通过预防措施避免的皮肤病。因此，尽早让实习生了解预防措施似乎很有必要，以避免养成随后成为常规问题的不良习惯。皮肤科医生的作用不仅在于识别有较高患刺激性皮炎风险的个体，还应告知患者其职业中的相关刺激物（或家庭或休闲活动中的刺激物）。集体预防措施必须与个人措施（如手套、防护服、正确的皮肤清洁和外用乳膏）相结合。对风险最高的个体进行定期培训和激励至关重要，因为最好的预防措施如果不经常使用就毫无效果。
