General offices are places with central air conditioning. Dozens or even hundreds of people work in an open office area. Of course, everyone has a computer in front of them. Ozone, electromagnetic radiation and electronic fog are accompanied by the heat wave of the chassis fan, mixed with dirty air, and released to everyone at work. Although sitting in the so-called comfortable office, it feels like taking drugs! To this end, several experts came to discuss with you how office workers can reduce passive drug use and improve their health.
Many people don't know that the office environment in such a place is worse than outdoor. These pollutions are mainly caused by the following situations. First, the electromagnetic radiation pollution of office equipment will affect people's circulatory, reproductive and metabolic systems to varying degrees, making the nervous system and body fluid regulation function disorder, resulting in headaches, fatigue, irritability, insomnia and other symptoms. At the same time, there will be chemistry and physical contamination, laser printers will produce ozone, copiers and inkjet printers will bring inhalable particles, and correction fluid will also contain carbon monoxide, dichloromethane and other substances that are irritating to the respiratory system and nervous system. There are also some places where pollution is mainly caused by excessive decoration and improper selection of office furniture. Office desks and chairs, partitions, wallpaper, wall cloths and laminate flooring may all release formaldehyde, carpets may release formaldehyde and dichlorobenzene, groups of filing cabinets polished with paint brushes are the main sources of benzene, toluene and xylene volatilization, and even leather sofas in conference rooms may release formaldehyde, benzene, TVOC and other "toxic gases" that can pollute the whole room.
For the office, the biggest harm is not only a large number of computers, but also a dense crowd. Problems such as insufficient fresh air volume and lack of maintenance in the central air conditioning system of office buildings are aggravating air pollution. Of course, there will be some different degrees of outdoor air infiltration pollution, such as sulfur dioxide produced by coal-fired boilers in winter, heavy metals such as lead and nitrogen oxides produced by automobile exhaust, inhalable particles suspended in the air and so on. In short, radiation pollution, air pollution, noise pollution, light pollution, drinking water pollution, and biological pollution caused by parasites that indirectly harm the human body, such as carpet mites and sweater fish. For office workers who often work in polluted environment, it is undoubtedly "toxic". Over time, the accumulation of these toxins will do great harm to physical and mental health.
The above is what Bian Xiao of Weiwei Health Network wants to share with you about the harm caused by poor air circulation in the office. Everyone should learn more.
