One of the most common occupational diseases is occupational contact dermatitis. Dermatitis among fishermen may be due to sea water due to its density that draws water from the skin. Dermatitis that often occurs among fishermen is irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis. This study aims to determine the factors related the incidence of dermatitis among fishermen at Karangreja Village, Suranenggala Subdistrict, Cirebon District in 2019. This study used a descriptive analytic approach with cross sectional design. The population of this research was fishermen at Karangreja Village, Suranenggala Subdistrict, Cirebon District in 2019 as many as 167 fishermen and the samples were 63 fishermen taken by accidental sampling technique. Data collection was carried out by interview using a questionnaire and observation using a checklist sheet. Data analysis was performed using chi-square test. The results showed that there was a relationship between work period with P Value = (0.040), Personal Protective Equipment with P Value = (0.030), personal hygiene with P Value = (0.045) and the incidence of dermatitis among fishermen. Meanwhile, there was no relationship between age and the incidence of dermatitis with P Value = (0.629).
