This publication provides an overview of the four tailored infographics created for the UF/IFAS Extension program called Sun Safe Workspace. The goal of each infographic was to communicate specific knowledge related to the importance of sun safety for cancer prevention, with a focus on outdoor professionals (or those who spend most of their working hours outside). We also present graphical elements that are used to facilitate cohesiveness among program materials. Written by Melissa J. Vilaro, Lugthea D. Pelissier, Wendy Wood, Samara Purvis, Joshua K.
