The U.S.V.I. Department of Labor Division of Occupational Safety and Health will hold a workshop on Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) issues. This will be a hands-on understanding workshop on what IEQ is about. Many times, teachers, parents, administrators, employees, employers and other stakeholders want to have their facilities “tested” to assure themselves of “good indoor air quality.” This is usually not the first move that responsible parties should make. Why do health professionals recommend caution and a great deal of thought before testing the air? There are a number of reasons.
