There are two types of dermatitis: • Irritant contact dermatitis – this occurs when a person is in regular contact with skin irritants. The condition reverses after complete contact with the substance stops. • Allergic contact dermatitis – this occurs when there is repeated exposure causing the person to become sensitised and develop an allergy. The condition cannot be reversed. Follow this link to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) website for background information about dermatitis.
