Issue #55: October is Indoor Air Quality Month
In this edition we explore the ongoing evolution of the workplace, exploring topics such as indoor air quality, technological advancements, employee well-being, and hybrid work models.
Poor IAQ can lead to a range of health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and fatigue. In workspaces, this can result in increased sick days, reduced employee performance, and higher operational costs due to inefficiencies.
On the flip side, environments with good IAQ—made possible by proper ventilation, air purification systems, and monitoring through advanced sensors—contribute to better health, higher productivity, and overall workplace satisfaction. Given the amount of time we spend indoors, maintaining optimal indoor air quality isn't just a health priority, but a critical business strategy that can drive both employee wellness and bottom-line success.

We spend about 90% of our time indoors, according the EPA. This staggering figure underscores just how crucial indoor air quality (IAQ) is to our overall health and well-being. With such a large portion of our daily lives spent in enclosed spaces—whether at home, in offices, or other indoor environments—the quality of the air we breathe directly impacts our health, productivity, and even cognitive function.
