Do you see mold?
Mold can be a source of common allergens and can cause eye and respiratory irritation.
If you see mold within your work space, EHSO can coordinate with facilities maintenance to identify the source of the mold and have it properly removed.
What’s that smell?
If you smell something that you can’t identify, our office can help! Follow these simple steps if you have an odor complaint:
- If the odor cannot be identified, contact facilities maintenance first.
- Explain the odor to facilities and facilities will directly contact EHSO to do a walkthrough and visual assessment of the area to determine the source of the odor.
- Once the odor has been identified, EHSO will make the appropriate recommendations to assist in eliminating the odor.
