Indoor Air Quality: A Commonsense Approach
Katherine Cavanaugh is the manager for occupational safety and health and loss control in the department of Environmental Safety, Sustainability and Risk at the University of Maryland. She has over 18 years of experience investigating indoor air quality concerns, including extensive knowledge in controlling and responding to water intrusion and subsequent mold growth. While Ms. Cavanaugh appreciates the beauty of mold in the world of microscopy, her goal is to assist facilities in preventing its growth on building materials.Are there weird smells in the office, flare-ups of allergy symptoms, or visible mold on walls? Do you have questions on how to clean work areas for employees returning after COVID-19 quarantine and or suitability of employee’s masks? This session will give you an overview on conducting Indoor Air Quality surveys, common equipment used to conduct them, and provide several case studies with lessons learned.
