Does HESIS only recommend standards for chemicals?
No. HESIS also makes recommendations for standards that protect workers from other health hazards. For example, we recommended revision of the Cal/OSHA Sanitation Standard to protect workers from the health effects of mold found in indoor workplaces. As a result, employers are now required to correct uncontrolled accumulation of water due to leakages and other sources to prevent the growth of mold in workplaces.
