With a cross-sectional design and 112 subjects, the results showed that 53,6% of the salted-fish processor were contact dermatitis suspected. The suspected contact dermatitis increases with duration of contact (p=0,000), frequency of contact (p=0,000), and house temperature (p=0,003) while decreases with groundwater source and humidity. Duration of contact can make the lack of permeability of the skin therefore the material of irritant can infiltrate properly. The distribution of clean water must be comprehensive in order to prevent contact dermatitis, while the building should protect the worker from the heat temperature. Protective and personal hygiene should be organized to protect the worker from disease and keep the quality of the product.
