A lack of proper maintenance, or a recent reduction in maintenance activities in a facility, can often trigger indoor environmental problems. Even when true problems may not exist, there can be a worker perception of a problem. Perception of a problem is often just as problematic as an actual IAQ or IEQ issue.
When maintenance budgets for a facility are reduced, or a new property management company looks for ways to cut costs, it generally doesn’t take long before employees begin to see a reduction in maintenance and housekeeping. This may translate into a lack of dusting near work areas or a decrease in carpet cleaning for example. Any of these scenarios may cause worker perceptions of indoor environmental issues.
Many employees today understand that exposure to airborne contaminants such as mold and dust can lead to illness or allergic and asthmatic reactions. Poor IAQ and IEQ, or the perception of an issue, can lead to decreased productivity, health issues and potential liability for employers.
When companies in Illinois are faced with these types of problems there is one environmental consulting and building inspection service provider with solutions, EC2, Inc. (ec2). Ed Chambers, the President of ec2 has long been leading the way in the greater Chicago area and has worked to successfully resolve over 4,000 IAQ problems. “Proper maintenance is crucial to prevent these types of problems,” reported Mr. Chambers. “Keeping work areas clean can mean all the difference in the world.”
