A brief description of the institution’s indoor air quality program(s) (including information about regular auditing or monitoring, mechanisms for occupants to register complaints, and action plans):
The quality of indoor air within Ohio State buildings should allow employees to work safely at all times. However, there are rare circumstances where hazards, such as elevated particulates (dust, dander, and allergens), volatile chemical vapors, vehicle emissions, and mold may enter workplace air. EHS has the capability to conduct air monitoring for these, and many other, compounds to evaluate breathing air within a building and ensure compliance with ASHRAE, OSHA, and EPA requirements for indoor air. Additionally, EHS conducts annual indoor air quality testing (respirable particles, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, temperature and relative humidity) in 116 campus buildings; these records are kept for baseline and comparison purposes.
