Sick building syndrome: an alternative view

Abstract

Offers an interpretation of results of a recent study on sick building syndrome and their implications for facilities managers. Demonstrates the need for facilities managers to take a disciplined approach to analysing health problems and invites the use of a model for assessing possible causes. Provides a basic framework for understanding environmental conditions, buildings, work practices, and workers for investigating complaints and causes of sick building syndrome.
