Protecting your employees is more than providing PPE for visible threats, it is safeguarding against invisible elements too. Non-melanoma skin cancer is the most common cancer in the UK, with more than 152,000 new cases diagnosed every year.
Occupational groups that are exposed to UV radiation during their working hours are particularly at risk. UV rays can penetrate clouds and textiles. Even on cloudy days, you need to protect your skin from radiation.
Adopted by the World Health Organisation, the UV Index tells you on a daily basis what the UV levels are and when sun protection measures are required.
At SMI we understand that 86% of melanoma skin cancer cases are preventable, that’s why we’re equipping our customers with the tools to combat exposure to UV.
