The CDC, or Center for Disease Control, estimates that most Americans spend about 90% of their time indoors with the majority of that being spent in their workplace environment. It is because of this statistic that business owners should heed the importance of putting an air quality monitoring plan in place. AirMD offers this service along with asbestos testing, asbestos surveys, lead testing, water testing, allergy testing, wellness testing, mold testing, pesticide testing, and more. We want our clients to understand the importance of these services, so we have put together four reasons you need an air quality monitoring plan in place.
1. It will help workman’s compensation claims. When workers are exposed to harmful contaminants, they can be entitled to workman’s compensation due to the poor indoor air quality. With an air quality monitoring plan in place, you will have your environment monitored to ensure there are no harmful airborne contaminants to harm your workers.
2. This plan helps reduce employee absenteeism related to illnesses from poor air quality in workplace environments.
3. Increases work morale and productivity of all employees because they understand the employer is looking out for their best interests ensuring a clean favorable work environment.
4. Reduces exposure to potential lawsuits that may come your way from employees who have been exposed to poor air quality and claim health related issues.
These are just a few of the reasons you, as a business owner, should always have an air quality monitoring plan in place to protect yourself and your employees.
