Cement causes alkali burns. Alkali related chemicals with a high pH concentration can easily penetrate the skin, eyes and other vulnerable parts of the human body. The higher the concentration (high pH level) the more damage that is done. Think of the human body as neutral litmus paper (pH 7) and any acid or alkali is easily absorbed if it comes into contact, either solid, liquid, fine dust/gas.
