Understanding HVAC & Indoor Air Quality Technologies & Practices
A building’s heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system has always been known as the mechanical system in the building that appropriately heats and/or cools the building and its occupants. However, the perceived role of the HVAC system is changing. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has placed a lens on potential building impacts to occupant health and safety, and therefore, on the increased focus on the role of the HVAC system and how it can assist in the indoor air quality (IAQ).

Why Plants In The Office Make Us More Productive
‘Green’ offices with plants make staff happier and more productive than ‘lean’ designs stripped of greenery, new research shows.

In the first field study of its kind, researchers found enriching a ‘lean’ office with plants could increase productivity by 15%.

The team examined the impact of ‘lean’ and ‘green’ offices on staff’s perceptions of air quality, concentration, and workplace satisfaction, and monitored productivity levels over subsequent months in two large commercial offices in the UK and The Netherlands.

Reporting Near Misses
An employee walks down the hall, stepping over an extension cord stretched across his path. He turns a corner and nearly collides with another worker. To avoid the collision, he steps to the side, spilling coffee onto the floor and inadvertently jostling a shelving unit, on which a tool placed close to the edge of the top shelf falls and hits the ground.

No one is hurt in this fictional scenario. However, the employees in it experience multiple near-miss situations – any one of which could have led to a serious injury.
