Poor indoor air quality can cause a variety of adverse health effects. This statement focuses on Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and presents indoor air quality guideline values for
selected VOCs, to control their levels in the indoor environment. The guideline values were derived from a scientific literature review that considers: * current scientific data showing the
occurrence of various VOCs in buildings internationally * toxicological reviews for the individual VOCs with potential for adverse health effects * health-based guidelines for proposed by
other countries and organisations The review ultimately sets out proposed UK indoor air quality guidelines for selected VOCs. It is intended to inform discussions on source control, raise
awareness of the potential impacts of pollutants at home, and aid in improving the health and wellbeing of the general population. UPDATES TO THIS PAGE Published 13 September 2019 SIGN UP
