Sickness in the Office…
Envirochem were recently approached by a television production company who were concerned about sickness within the office and needed some monitoring carried out to determine whether the source of the sickness was the building itself or other factors. In a similar case, we were approached by a medical centre after people had felt unwell in a certain area of the facility.
For the first case, the client requested humidity and temperature readings along with tests for carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide to rule out several potential reasons for the persistent sickness, such as a faulty air conditioning system.
For the second case, we were requested to carry out tests for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and for bioaerosols for similar reasons to the first case.
At Envirochem we are able to carry out tailored occupational monitoring, sampling and analysis, providing a bespoke service for each individual client.
