Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Risk factors/predictors for OCD will be obtained by questionnaire. Questions will be asked on smoking status and a number of airway diseases that could be related to (atopic) dermatitis. In addition, questions are included on exposures to various products (e.g. paints, solvents, cement, etc.) to evaluate the risk of working with these products to realize the Stoffenmanger skin extension.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
* Occupational contact dermatitis (diagnosed by a team of a dermatologist and an occupational physician) is the main endpoint of the study. Other main study parameters are: * Contact dermatitis as diagnosed using a questionnaire * Atopic status (specific serum IgE to a panel of common allergens) * Mutations in the filaggrin gene (R501X, 2282del4, R2447X, S3247X, 3702delG)
