Why is indoor air quality important?

Its a major concern to businesses, building managers, tenants, and employees because it can impact the health, comfort, well-being, and productivity of building occupants. Most Americans spend up to 90% of their time indoors and many spend most of their working hours in an office environment. Studies conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and others show that indoor environments sometimes can have levels of pollutants that are actually higher than levels found outside. Pollutants in our indoor environment can increase the risk of illness. Several studies by EPA, states, and independent scientific panels have consistently ranked indoor air pollution as an important environmental health problem. While most buildings do not have severe indoor air quality problems, even well-run buildings can sometimes experience episodes of poor indoor air quality. A 1989 EPA Report to Congress concluded that improved indoor air quality can result in higher productivity and fewer lost work days. EPA estimates that poor indoor air may cost the nation tens of billions of dollars each year in lost productivity and medical care.

What are common causes of muscloskeletal disorder?

Lifting, Repetitive motion, Contact Stress, Extreme Force, Vibration, and Awkward Postures

What can the office manager/tenant do to improve indoor air quality?

Maintain a good working relationship with building management on indoor environmental issues. Place office furniture, partitions, and equipment with air circulation, temperature control, and pollutant removal functions of the HVAC system in mind. Coordinate with building management in instances when responsibility for design, operation, and maintenance of the HVAC system is shared. Establish an effective smoking policy. Avoid procedures and products that can cause problems. Integrate indoor air quality concerns into your purchasing decisions. Work with the building owner or manager to ensure use of only necessary and appropriate pest control practices, and non-chemical methods where possible. Work with building management and contractors before you conduct remodeling or renovation activities to identify ways of keeping exposure to pollutants to a minimum. Encourage building management to obtain and use the joint EPA/NIOSH guidance document entitled: Building Air Quality: A Guide for Building Owners and Facility Managers.
