As the first leaves of Autumn begin to fall from the trees, the landscape is painted in vibrant reds, yellows and oranges. The air grows crisper and the days get shorter. Everywhere you look you’re reminded Fall has arrived and pumpkin spice is back.
What we tend to miss however, is the toll your indoor air quality takes when the seasons change outside. Let’s dive deeper in how the weather change can alter your IAQ and things you can do to navigate this.
Maintaining good IAQ in the workplace is crucial to the safety and health of your employees. Make sure you are maintaining your heating and cooling systems throughout every season and providing proper ventilation into your workspace, allowing for outdoor air exchange while maintaining indoor temperatures. Encourage employees to limit fragrances, promote cleaning protocols and educate employees on the importance of indoor air quality.
