Offices – Roofs by Building Type
Offices
Roofing systems for offices can have a surprising impact on energy costs and productivity. Leaks in a workplace should be addressed immediately, if possible, to help eliminate distractions to employees and clients, and prevent the growth of mold. Mold in an office space can lead to wide range of health effects that can have both minor and major impacts on productivity, as well as liabilities for employers and building owners. At a minimum, mold can cause unsightly dark stains on walls and ceilings or cause a musty odor. Mold growth can cause workers to suffer allergic reactions, such as coughing, sneezing, itchy eyes, runny nose, or sore throat. In extreme cases, people have developed severe chronic symptoms, such as asthma. Other symptoms of mold resulting from roof leaks that could affect the production of workers, include headaches, decreased attention span, difficulty in concentration, and dizziness.
