For many companies occupational
safety and health does not include air
quality even though we breathe up to
25,000 litres or more than 20kg of air
each day. The air quality has a
significant impact on health, both
short- and long-term. Particles have
a long term effect, causing
respiratory problems and
cardiovascular diseases, while gases
often cause short term issues like
head aches and reduced productivity.
Clean air solutions specialist,
Camfil Farr believes that the
knowledge about air pollution as
part of occupational safety and
health is not taken seriously enough.
The company has therefore created a
European Indoor Air Quality Road
Show, with the aim of educating
people on the impact of air
pollution. The road show is
travelling Europe and welcomes all
people working with human
resources to come and visit and learn
more about these issues.
