Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Maintenance experts at Adams Care share insights on how poor indoor air quality can affect organizational productivity and long-term success.

As of 2021, at least 800,000 people die every year due to poor air quality, specifically in the workplace. This is because employees spend most of their day at a workplace and poor indoor air quality substantially impacts their health. This also collides with the popular view among HVAC experts, who say indoor air quality can be five times more polluted than outdoor air.

Maintenance experts at Adams Care say that poor indoor air quality affects a business in much more complex ways than meets the eye. They said, ?Poor indoor air quality in a workplace firstly affects the health of employees, which contributes to higher absenteeism and sick rates. Prolonged sickness due to poor indoor air quality at a workplace can also increase employee turnover rate, requiring businesses to invest time and money in hiring new candidates frequently. All these aftereffects resulting from poor indoor air quality in a workplace can disrupt the smooth flow of business operations and put behind a business from utilizing market opportunities effectively- thereby risking the long-term success and sustainability of a business.?

?Besides, continuous exposure to poor indoor air quality can also cause a reduction in cognitive capabilities, especially in areas such as crisis and risk response, strategic thinking, and information processing- which are all essential human skills required to thrive in the dynamic business world.?

The maintenance experts further discussed the importance of indoor air quality for business by referring to an illness called ?Sick Building Syndrome.? They said, ?The causes of sick building syndrome can also arise from chemical contaminants such as volatile organic compounds and other harmful toxic components present in polluted air, within a workplace. Exposure to these harmful compounds causes uneasiness and symptoms like flu, headaches, dry cough, difficulty concentrating, fatigue, dry or itchy skin, chest tightness, dizziness, fever, chills, nausea, and sensitivity to odors. All these health effects interrupt an employee?s concentration, attentiveness, and focus towards work, thereby reducing productivity levels and overall performance.?

The experts believe that the only way to get around with poor indoor air quality is to take HVAC maintenance seriously within a working environment. They mainly signified the importance of regular ac cleaning, disinfection, and sanitization services to keep indoor air quality and overall working environment healthy, and suitable for employees to perform productively.
