The purpose of this study is to evaluate the nail shop working conditions for the protection of the health of workers can be exposed to various concentrations of volatile organic compounds is to assess. The subjects of this study were the workers at nail shops registered with the Daegu Metropolitan Government. One place to the nail shop seven days of passive sampler was used to collect personal samples were collected during one working day, and the data was analyzed using GC/MS Volatile Organic Compounds in Acetone, MEK(Methyl ethyl ketone), Ethanol, n-butyl alcohol, IPA (Isopropyl alcohol), Ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, Toluene has been detected, All volatile organic compounds showed a concentration below the exposure level. Of these Acetone, IPA (Isopropyl alcohol), Ethyl acetate containing a lot of working with the product and the total average concentration Acetone 4.5(±4.4) ppm, IPA(Isopropyl alcohol) 1.3 (±1.5) ppm were detected. Day according to the frequency working and the results of evaluating the concentration in the air on Thursday and Saturday were the most treatment. Thursday and Saturday, the higher the frequency of operation of the Acetone and IPA mean concentration was higher than the other days of the week.
