Background and Design: Occupational hand eczema is a commonly encountered problem. The time interval between onset and diagnosis is often long and this leads to increased morbidity. Besides dermatologists, family practitioners and workplace doctors play a role in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. We aimed in our study to evaluate the discrepancies in how the disease is diagnosed and how the patients are handled between these specialty groups. We also aimed to determine the level of knowledge about occupational eczema and how the knowledge could be increased.
