Maintaining a healthy work environment
• Use nontoxic cleaning materials, biodegradable soaps and recycled paper or cloth towels. • Buy cleaning materials in bulk and recycle their containers. • Suggest that employees bring a plant into work for their desks to absorb indoor pollution. • Purchase furniture, carpeting and paints that are free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
