Immediate formaldehyde exposure can cause burning eyes, nose, and throat irritation along with difficulty breathing, skin rashes, headaches, and dizziness that directly impact work performance. Long-term exposure poses serious cancer risks confirmed by EPA and international health agencies. Employees experiencing these symptoms may file workers’ compensation claims, while businesses face liability for inadequate workplace safety measures. Professional testing demonstrates due diligence for OSHA compliance and protects against health-related lawsuits. Identifying and addressing formaldehyde contamination improves workplace air quality, reduces sick days, and enhances overall productivity while protecting employee health.
