Indoor Air Pollution

Indoor air pollution can lead to vague, general worker complaints such as headaches, drowsiness, nasal congestion, or tired, watery eyes. 2. Currently, no health and safety laws exist to regulate indoor air quality or ventilation in public buildings. 3. Because of the lack of regulation, employers have minimal incentives to ensure adequate air quality and ventilation until the problem of indoor air pollution causes appreciable amounts of worker complaints. 4. Occupational health nurses can impact on indoor air pollution through the roles of clinician, researcher, consultant, and educator.
