Skin Checks for Outdoor Hospitality Staff
Beer gardens, beach bars, hotel pool teams, terrace cafés — outdoor hospitality staff work some of the longest UV-exposed shifts in any service industry. ScanSkinAI helps hospitality SMEs offer their teams private, affordable skin checks.
Quick answer
Outdoor hospitality staff often spend 6–8 hour shifts in direct sun across the summer season, with peak UV on face, neck, arms and chest. ScanSkinAI gives hospitality SMEs per-seat skin checks at $59.99 per worker per year, with unlimited AI mole scans plus optional online dermatologist review — usable from the staff member's own phone.
See workplace skin cancer screening for small businesses for the full plan and pricing.
Why outdoor hospitality staff are at elevated risk
Hospitality shifts often span 10:00–18:00 — exactly the highest UV window of the day. Bar staff, baristas and servers tend to be young adults, the same demographic where melanoma incidence has risen fastest in the last decade.
Uniform constraints (short sleeves, neckline-exposed shirts) and the need to interact with guests mean sunscreen is rarely re-applied to a useful standard during a shift.
Peak-UV shift overlap
Lunch and afternoon shifts cover exactly the UV peak — staff burn at work, not at home.
Reflected UV from water
Pool, beach and rooftop venues bounce 20–30% more UV onto skin and face.
Under-35s rising fastest
Melanoma incidence in adults under 35 has risen sharply over the past decade in AU, NZ and UK.
Casual-friendly
Per-seat plans cover casual, seasonal and tip-based staff — common in hospitality.
Multi-venue scales
One company plan can cover multiple bars, restaurants and pool teams; seats are portable across sites.
Private from managers
Managers never see individual results — just seat usage and anonymous engagement.
Why traditional on-site skin checks are hard for small businesses
- Seasonal staffing means traditional yearly clinic visits don't fit the employment cycle.
- Many hospitality workers are casual or part-time and lack occupational health cover.
- Tip-based pay makes losing a shift for a clinic visit financially painful.
- Multi-venue groups can't easily coordinate one onsite clinic for everyone.
How ScanSkinAI works for your team
1. Buy seats for your team
Pick the number of employees you want to cover. $59.99 per seat per year. Add or remove seats anytime from your company dashboard.
2. Staff scan privately from their phone
Employees redeem the invite link, then take photos of moles, rashes or skin concerns directly in the browser or iOS app. Unlimited scans, mole tracking, body and wound checks.
3. Optional online dermatologist review
When the AI flags a higher-risk lesion, the employee can request a board-certified dermatologist to review the case within 48 hours.
4. Employer sees usage only
Your admin dashboard shows seat usage and anonymous engagement — never employee images or personal results.
Employee privacy comes first
Employers never see employee skin images or personal results. Each staff member has their own private account. Your company dashboard only shows seat usage and anonymous engagement so you can prove the benefit is being used without ever touching personal health data.
ScanSkinAI is UKCA Class I registered and operates under ISO 27001 information security.
The cost of doing nothing
$59.99/staff member/year covers unlimited AI scans, mole tracking and optional dermatologist review for 12 months — used from the staff member's own phone.
One private mole-mapping appointment costs £180–£350 / AUD 150–300 plus a lost tipped shift — most hospitality staff simply never book one.

$59.99 per employee per year
One flat price. Unlimited AI skin scans, mole tracking, body and wound checks, and optional online dermatologist review for every covered employee.
