Back to Topic Index Indoor Air Ambient Air Indoor Air Quality Air quality in your office: "Is the air 'OK' in here?" Most of us have felt at one time or another that there were things they'd like to have improved in their work environment; the lighting, the furniture, the boss (!), the colors, or the "air". The Environment, Health and Safety Office regularly responds to concerns regarding indoor air quality (IAQ), in a variety of ways. Indoor air quality is affected by a variety of factors. The most common are: Temperature and humidity Insufficient outside air (introduced into the system) Insufficient circulation of air Odors from outside sources often during construction or renovation activities Symptoms often include drowsiness, headache, eye irritation, and other "generalized symptoms". If you feel that there is a problem with the quality of your air or you sense some problems (such as odors, dusts or haze) there are some important things you can do. First, try to do a basic survey of your area and adjacent areas to identify potential or actual sources of any odor that may be present. Depending on your overall work setting this could be anything from stored cleaning chemicals (e.g., cleaners or paints), mold developing (e.g.,a stored wet mop or rug), outside activities (construction, engine emissions), or building system related.

Contact Us NIOSH Safety and Health Topic: Indoor Environmental Quality "Indoor Environmental Quality," as the name implies, simply refers to the quality of the air in an office or other building environment. "Sick Building Syndrome" is a term many people use to convey a wide range of symptoms they believe can be attributed to the building itself. Workers typically implicate the workplace environment because their symptoms are alleviated when they leave the office. Indoor environmental contaminants can originate within the building or be drawn in from outdoors. If contaminant concentrations are excessive, IEQ problems can arise, even if the HVAC system is properly designed and well-maintained. NIOSH investigators have found IEQ problems caused by ventilation system deficiencies, overcrowding, offgassing from materials in the office and mechanical equipment, tobacco smoke, microbiological contamination, and outside air pollutants. Maintaining a healthy and comfortable indoor environment in any building requires integrating many components of a complex system. Indoor environment problems are preventable and solvable and practical guidance on how to manage your building for good indoor environmental quality is available.

47. Niosh/fact Sheet/ Indoor Environmental Quality What is indoor Environmental quality (IEQ)? The public is probably more familiarwith the terms indoor air quality and Sick Building Syndrome. http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ieqfs.html

INDOOR ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY (IEQ) June 1997 During the last 20 years, concerns associated with the quality of the indoor office environment have escalated in the American workplace. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has seen the number of request for the Institute's assistance rise dramatically, as public concern about this problem continues to increase. What is Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ)? The public is probably more familiar with the terms "Indoor Air Quality" and "Sick Building Syndrome." "Indoor Air Quality," as the name implies, simply refers to the quality of the air in an office environment. "Sick Building Syndrome" is a term many people use to convey a wide range of symptoms they believe can be attributed to the building itself. Workers typically implicate the workplace environment because their symptoms are alleviated when they leave the office. NIOSH prefers to use the term "Indoor Environmental Quality" (or IEQ) to describe the problems occurring in office buildings and schools throughout the nation. The Institute, through its Health Hazard Evaluation (HHE) Program , evaluates potential health hazards in workplaces in response to requests from employers, employees, employee representatives, state and local government agencies, and Federal agencies. NIOSH investigators have found that concerns about air quality may be caused by a number of factors, encompassing much more than air contamination. Other factors such as comfort, noise, lighting, ergonomic stressors (poorly designed work stations and tasks) and jobrelated psychosocial stressors can individually and in combination contribute to complaints. Hence, IEQ more accurately describes the scope of the problem.

Air pollutants may cause respiratory diseases, cancer and other health effects. Pollutants also may create odors and smog, diminish the protective ozone layer, and contribute to other environmental problems, such as acid rain and global climate change. The air inside homes, schools, and other buildings also may contain pollutants that enter from outdoors and those generated indoors. Mold, radon, tobacco smoke, carbon monoxide, and chemical emissions from products and furnishings are some of the important pollutants that may be present in our homes and other indoor environments. Finding solutions to these and other air pollution problems isn't always easy, and requires agencies, environmental organizations, industry, and the public to work together.

The official conference of the International Academy of Indoor Air Sciences Indoor climate is increasingly recognized as extremely important to the health and well-being of people around the world. We spend most of our lives indoors where we are often exposed to higher levels of many air pollutants than outdoors. Indoor thermal, acoustic, and lighting conditions can also affect health and well being. Since 1978, the triennial international indoor air conference series has brought together people representing a wide range of disciplines, all working to understand and solve problems and identify opportunities associated with indoor environmental quality and climate. Although researchers and practitioners from almost any background can make a contribution, it is the dynamic mixture of those contributions that will make the difference between success and failure in improving the indoor environment. Indoor Air 2002 has continued the multidisciplinary approach taken by earlier conferences in this series. Indoor Air 2002 also continued another important tradition: by aiming for high scientific standards so that the presentations and papers represent a reliable resource for scientists, practitioners, and regulatory authorities for years to come.

U.S. Department of Labor www.osha.gov MyOSHA [skip navigational links] Search Advanced Search A-Z Index Safety and Health Topics: Indoor Air Quality In Focus OSHA Alliances Concerns with Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) have increased since energy conservation measures were instituted in office buildings during the 1970s, minimizing the infiltration of outside air and contributing to the buildup of indoor air contaminants. IAQ generally refers to the quality of the air in an office environment. Other terms related to IAQ include Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) and "Sick Building Syndrome." Complaints about IAQ range from simple complaints such as the air smelling odd to more complex, where the air quality causes illness and lost work time. It may not be easy to identify a single reason for IAQ complaints because of the number and variety of possible sources, causes, and varying individual sensitivities. The following questions link to resources that provide safety and health information relevant to indoor air quality. What standards apply?

Because of this, the knowledge and skills of individuals providing indoor environmental quality services vary tremendously. There are no federal regulations covering professional indoor air services (except where it involves asbestos, lead or radon). Some professional organizations, such as the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH) offer certifications in indoor environmental quality, but these are not required by law. So, if you have a suspected indoor air quality problem that you cannot readily understand and remedy, it can be difficult to decide where to turn. This guide was written to help you: Investigate the problem in-house Recognize when you need outside help Decide what expertise is required to resolve your indoor air problem Select a consultant, if necessary
