Summary
Era globalisasi menuntut pelaksanaan kesehatan dan keselamatan kerja di setiap tempat kerja, termasuk di sektor informal. Maka untuk itu perlu ditingkatkan upaya promosi dan pencegahan dalam rangka menekan serendah mungkin risiko penyakit yang timbul akibat pekerjaan atau lingkungan kerja.Dalam rangka pembinaan dan peningkatan perilaku kesehatan masyarakat, pendekatan edukasi (pendidikan kesehatan) lebih tepat dibandingkan dengan pendekatan koersi [1]. Praktek personal hygiene berfungsi untuk mengurangiatau menghilangkan bahan kimia yang telah kontak dan menempel pada kulit pekerja, sehingga personal hygiene tidak dapat digunakan sebagai upaya pencegahan dermatitis kontak, akan tetapi sebagai upaya pengurangan dampak bahan kimia terhadap dermatitis kontak yang terjadi pada pekerja pencuci mobil. Hasil penelitian ini dapat menjadi dasar untuk penelitian selanjutnya agar mendapatkan pengetahuan yang lebih luas dalam rangka menyusun perencanaan dan program penanggulangan terhadap pekerja di sektor informal khususnya pada pekerja pencuci mobil yang terkena penyakit akibat kerja yaitu dermatitis kontak
