Kay, I your workers are using gluteraldehyde and/or formaldehyde and there is any potential for skin exposure then you should certainly be considering skin health surveillance, if only to comply with COSHH. How you do this will depend upon the circumstances and may merely be regular visual checks by a competent person or extend to skin condition measurement, etc. In order to avoid any "commercialisation" of this forum, if you want to know more on this please feel free to contact me direct.
