Abstract
This paper reports on five cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) occurring in welders, an occupation in which there is potential for intense exposure to nonsolar ultraviolet irradiation. The status of ultraviolet light as the major aetiological factor in NMSC is well established, and in the great majority of cases solar irradiation is the source. The possible role of nonsolar sources of ultraviolet irradiation should not be overlooked.
