Compares the levels of possible cigarette smoke-related aerosols with the prevalence of health-related complaints in offices with different regulations about smoking, using data from two sources. The first was a review of 111 buildings with persistent building-related complaints and 32 buildings where there were no complaints. The second was a questionnaire completed by approximately 1100 employees from 9 buildings in New York City. The available data do not support a conclusion that increased reports of building-related complaints are associated with smoking. Pollution levels are no greater in buildings without smoking restrictions.
Investigations on the effect of regulating smoking on levels of indoor pollution and on the perception of health and comfort of office workers.
