PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL- The "Big C"… Cancer, theword alone will send shivers up your spine. In the United States,according to The Skin Care Foundation, one in five people will getskin cancer, which is not only one of the most preventable cancersbut is one of the most common forms of cancer reported in men. Wesee ads for sunscreen on TV, on billboards and in the magazines,but why is it that most men still do not protect their skin fromthe intense rays of the sun while working during the day throughoutthe year? For some men they feel that is a bother to slather onsunscreen daily or they feel that they do not need sun protectionworking a regular 9 to 5 indoor job.  For others, especiallytemporary day laborers, with little discretionary funds, spendingmoney on sunscreen is not something they consider important.
 
Labor Finders International, the country's oldest and largestprivately held industrial labor staffing company, which puts over10,000 people to work every day cares about its workers safety andwants to protect its workers from the suns' harmful rays, so thecompany will celebrate the first Wednesday in the month of Augustas the Dog Days of Summer day. Labor Finders has teamed up withAustralian Gold®, to offer free skin protection to its work force.On Wednesday, August 5, every Labor Finders branch manager willhand out to its workers Australian Essentials Daily UV ProtectionSPF 30 sunscreen for them to use while they are working during theday.  In addition, at every location there will be specialsignage showing The Skin Care Foundation Tips to prevent the mostpreventable form of cancer-Skin Cancer.

Labor Finders is hoping that on August 5, this event will start toeducate its mostly male workforce by getting them to use sunscreenas part of their daily routine. In addition, the company is alsohoping that its workers will take along a tube of sunscreen withthem to work. Labor Finders wants its workers to know that applyinga sunscreen every day can help to prevent this epidemic of skincancer that affects them.
 
Dan Shube, Labor Finders Director of Marketing stated, "If ourworkers can get into the habit of using sunscreen, not just ontheir faces but their bodies, the number of people that will getskin cancer will decrease dramatically and hopefully one day, beeliminated."

"Labor Finders success has been measured by getting people jobsduring this struggling economy. We also want our workers to stayhealthy," said Shube.
