PPE for those resins isn't a pair of gloves and a paper mask, it is a full cover splash apron and a full face respirator that is rated for organic chemical gas. The fumes getting on your skin or trapped in mucous membranes like the lungs and eyes that causes it, direct spills just accelerate the process.
I wore an appropriate respirator and gloves, but not an apron
They would need to be gloves that are resistant to plastic solvents and plasticizers, I'm not personally convinced the usual nitrile ones would do anything at all against some of them as they are also used in nitrile production.
Still though, having skin exposed to the fumes in any capacity can do it from what I can tell, I know a few people in college at a makerspace that never directly worked with the SLA printers but still developed the allergy from being in the same enclosed space.
