Sadly a high number of tradespeople working outdoors are affected by skin cancer at some point in their lives – however a very high percentage of serious conditions could be prevented if our exposure to UV rays were controlled.
What is UV?
Ultraviolet (UV) rays come from the sun and offer us many benefits. However, when exposed for too long, UV rays are strong enough to damage the skin.
UV light is invisible, and there are three distinct types: UVA rays contribute to skin burning, skin cancer and premature ageing. They have a longer wavelength, which means they are able to penetrate deeper into the base layer of the skin. UVB lights are the primary cause of sunburn and also contribute to skin cancer. UVB rays have a much shorter wavelength and burns the outer layer of the skin. UVC rays are created artificially during industrial processes, such as welding.
