Workplace Air Quality Services
Ensuring a Healthy Environment for Your Employees
Your employees spend most of their work time at their desks. At ServiceMaster Restore®, we understand that their productivity levels are your top priority. However, their performance may be affected if the air quality in your office isn’t ideal. Allergens, odors, and germs can quickly spread, causing your top employees to miss important business days because of illness. If your employees come to you, or you notice several employees feeling the same effects, your building may have poor air quality.
Common physical symptoms of poor indoor air quality include:
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Fatigue
- Shortness of breath
- Allergy-like symptoms like coughing, sneezing, and sinus congestion
- Irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin
Find out how you can partner with the experts at ServiceMaster Restore and improve indoor air quality at your office. The sooner we can come in and assess the causes of poor air quality and treat the issues, the faster your employees can happily get back to business.
Why You Want Top Air Quality in the Office
Contaminants such as mold may cause poor indoor air quality. Research shows that people spend up to 90% of their time indoors. 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. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the quality of indoor air inside offices, schools, and other workplaces is important not only for workers' comfort but also for their health.
Many factors affect indoor air quality (IAQ). These factors include poor ventilation (lack of outside air), problems controlling temperature, humidity that is either too high or too low, recent remodeling, and other activities in or near a building that can affect the fresh air coming into the building.
Ask yourself the following questions to learn whether a mold or air quality problem potentially exists in your office:
- Are building materials or furnishings visibly moisture damaged?
- Have building materials been wet for more than 48 hours?
- Are there existing moisture problems in the building?
- Are building occupants reporting musty or moldy odors?
- Are building occupants reporting health problems that they think are related to the indoor environment?
- Has the building been recently remodeled or has the building use changed?
- Has routine maintenance been delayed, or the maintenance plan been altered?
