Module 13 – Addressing Chemical Sensitivities

IAQ & Chemical Sensitivities

The purpose of this Module is to inform building operators, managers, occupants and visitors about the complex medical condition known as chemical sensitivities, and potential role(s) that indoor air quality (IAQ) may play. The goal is to prevent the development and subsequent triggering of symptoms in susceptible individuals. The guide includes information and tools to assess, address and prevent potentially problematic indoor air contaminants. Communication is important, to accommodate individuals with chemical sensitivities.

This document is part of a series of modules forming the CCIAQ Guide for Indoor Air Quality.
