The Value of IAQ This white paper reviews the scientific evidence supporting investments in better indoor air quality (IAQ). Drawing from extensive research, it demonstrates how improved IAQ leads to higher productivity, enhanced cognitive performance, reduced absenteeism, decreased job stress, and increased job satisfaction. The paper examines specific IAQ improvements associated with these benefits, including increased ventilation, reduced pollutant emissions, improved air filtration, better temperature and humidity control, and reduced dampness and mold in buildings.
Workers’ Rights This white paper outlines nine fundamental workplace protections that AIHA considers essential for all workers, including the right to a safe workplace, access to safety information, proper training, medical confidentiality, ability to refuse unsafe work, complaint procedures, inspection participation, safety committee involvement, and injured worker protections.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Criteria for New Construction This white paper critically examines VOC concentration limits and sampling criteria used in green building standards for new construction. It evaluates the efficacy of preoccupancy VOC testing, reviews current protocols, and considers alternative approaches for assessing indoor air quality. The paper analyzes the scientific basis for VOC criteria, explores sampling methodology limitations, and provides recommendations for more comprehensive IAQ assessment strategies.
