The evidence is clear: Outdoor workers have a heightened risk of developing skin cancers, including basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and melanoma, due to prolonged, repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun.
It’s proven that unprotected UV exposure causes the vast majority of nonmelanoma skin cancers and is a major risk factor for melanoma, a dangerous form of skin cancer. While the immediate effects of sun exposure, like sunburn, may seem temporary, cumulative UV damage significantly raises skin cancer risk.
If you work outdoors for some or most of the day, it’s important to be vigilant: safeguard your skin against sun damage to reduce your likelihood of developing skin cancer. Use sunscreen daily and reapply every two hours, wear protective clothing, hats and eyewear. Seek shade whenever possible.
