Toda persona que trabaje al aire libre está expuesta a los rayos ultravioletas del sol, incluso en días nublados. Los rayos ultravioletas (UV) son una parte de la radiación invisible de la luz solar. Existen tres tipos de rayos UV: Los rayos UVA que se cree que causan daños en los tejidos conjuntivos y aumentan el riesgo de contraer cáncer de piel. Los rayos UVB, los cuales no penetran las capas profundas de la piel, pero igual causan algunos tipos de cáncer de piel. Los rayos UVC naturales que son absorbidos por la atmósfera y no representan un riesgo.
