Skin Notation Profiles
Skin Notation (SK) Profiles
In 2009, NIOSH published Current Intelligence Bulletin (CIB) 61: A Strategy for Assigning New NIOSH Skin Notations, which provides an updated strategy for assigning skin notations. The strategic framework outlined within this document is a form of hazard identification that has been designed to:
![cover cover page for skin notation profile document](/https/www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/skin/images/cover.jpg?_=78267)
- Ensure that the assigned skin notations reflect the contemporary state of scientific knowledge
- Provide transparency behind the assignment process
- Communicate the hazards of chemical exposures of the skin
- Meet the needs of health professionals, employers, and other interested parties in protecting workers from chemical contact with the skin
The new strategy for assigning the NIOSH skin notations relies on multiple skin notations to provide users a warning on the direct, systemic, and sensititzing effects of exposures of the skin to chemicals. Historically, skin notations have been published in the NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards . Support documents, called Skin Notation Profiles, provide information supplemental to the skin notation including the summary of all relevant data used to aid in determining the hazards associated with skin exposures.
