title: Environmental dermatitis: chrome cripples.
abstract: The problem of the workman disabled by allergic contact dermatitis from chromium or chromate salts which are widely distributed throughout industry is discussed and illustrated by a few representative cases. The Workers' Compensation Act as constituted in South Australia and the prolonged legal arguments which may occur over the rights of the disabled workman adversely affect his rehabilitation.
