Occupational acne is probably one of the most frequent causes of work-related skin disease, second only to contact dermatitis. This article outlines the different forms of occupational acne: oil acne, coal-tar acne, and chloracne. Oil acne and coal-tar acne, though less common than in the past, still pose some problems in certain industries. Chloracne continues to be the most significant problem.
