 Rhinitis peaks at 2-9 months after starting work with exposure to an occupational allergen
This paper is only about rhinitis, but shows increased risks in the first few months of exposure to LMW agents such as senstising chemicals, isocyanates, drugs, cleaning products, woods and metals; and to HMW agents such as animals, plants, arthropods, mites, enzymes, latex, flour. Peak incidence months 2-9. Rhinitis is known to be a risk factor for occupational asthma.
