- Background: The background of this research is the fact that workers in the textile industry largely does not use personal protective equipment, during working hours but they are always exposed to dyestuffs and color placard substances known that these substances can dissolve the fat under the skin surface so the skin becomes dry, cracked and could even occur vesicles. If the exposure occurred in a long time, the skin may occur thickening (lichenification) or substances can follow the path into the lymph vessels throughout the body and can cause disturbances in systim hormonal and genetic defects resulting in sterility. The purpose of this research is to obtain the relationship between age, years of working period and the use of PPE on the incidence of contact dermatitis in the textile industry in Jepara Troso. Method: It was an observational researchusing cross sectional design. The subjects were selected using purposivesampling. The collected data was analyzed using Spearman Rank test. Result: This research showed that there was highly significant relationship between the duration of work with contact dermatitis incidence (p = 0.038) and there is also a highly significant relationship between age of workers with contact dermatitis incidence (p = 0.025), whereas for longer exposure there was no significant correlation with the number of contact dermatitis incidence (p = 0.476).Conclusion: The duration of working likely had a strong association with the incidence of contact dermatitis. So, it was suggested to all workers for washing hands and feet carefully, especially in the folds of the hands and feet for the remaining dyes or substances, in other that contact dermatitis cases can be prevented.Keywords: dye, contact dermatitis, Troso textile industry
