Sick Building Syndrome (SBS)

Recent scientific developments and investigations have resulted in the introduction of a novel type of litigation. As scientific research demonstrates, our environment is altered in many ways. Numerous elements have a role in SBS (sick building syndrome), a condition that occurs when employees or residents of a building suffer catastrophic health consequences from their ongoing stay on or use of the property. Some the symptoms of the condition include:

• Respiratory problems
• Eye irritations
• Throat and nose irritations
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Persistent wheezing
• Coughing
• Other

Many elements can cause SBS (sick building syndrome) such as:

• Reactions to formaldehyde, carpet padding off-gassing, and synthetic fiber smells are common.
• Pollen, dust mites, bacteria, mold, and mildew are all frequent irritants.
• Tobacco smoke, and toxins produced by heavy heavy industry, worsens pre-existing conditions. Additionally, harmful compounds are present in asbestos fibers in the air, vapors and microparticles from degrading lead-based paints.

• While many of these threats continue to grow, Radon remains a primary source of concern. It is a naturally occurring gas that contributes significantly to the incidence of lung cancer in the US

• HVAC systems contribute to contamination of air in confined spaces and are another area of concern.
