dc.description.abstractExposure to solar radiation in agricultural workers is a global issue. Agriculture in Costa Rica represents 15% of GDP and 20% of the workforce. Costa Rica is characterized by primary agriculture crops, which represent 82% of agricultural land in the country. Costa Rican population is affected with skin cancer, accounting for 25% of the causes of cancer nationwide. The objective of this project was to evaluate occupational exposure to ultraviolet radiation in agricultural workers in the province of Cartago. The specific objectives were to characterize exposure to Ultraviolet Radiation (UVR) in workers, quantify the level of radiation (W/m2) to set out and determine the standard erythema dose (SED) of agricultural workerses
