London, UK -- (SBWire) -- 06/15/2015 --A new study of professional cleaning service employees has reported that fumes from cleaning products may be worsening existing symptoms of asthma. Commonly used domestic cleaning products such as bleach, glass cleaner and air freshener were said to be some of the key culprits for worsening the health condition in the study which was reported in Occupational and Environmental Medicine. The study team called for health and safety regulations in the workplace to protect employees from exposure to chemicals and irritants which could be harmful for them.
The implications of this news on the workplace could potentially be crucial. Heavier health and safety regulations would mean that the way in which offices traditionally hire and use professional cleaning services could be adjusted considerably. Although researchers have warned against generalizing from these results due to the small number of participants in the study.
