Mold Health Problems

Air Quality Test, Employees are Sick, Mold Issues,
& Visible Mold Growth

Q. I have a question for you. I recently made the company that I work for aware that they have a mold issue and should have it inspected. There are about 20 other employees that have reported also. We are suffering with asthma, sinusitis, allergies, upper respiratory symptoms etc. I ended up at my doctor's office and described the visible mold and was told that it is definitely a health concern. The HR person called the local health department and had him to do a walk through and he reported that there were no problems. When I asked what the air quality test confirmed I was told they did not do any as they obviously did not see reason to....even though it is growing on the walls. Can you get an accurate measure without doing air quality test? I am being singled out as a whistle blower and feel that I am getting the run around. Especially since I know for a fact they had another contractor to come in and inspect over a year ago and he said it was bad...very bad and the entire wall may have to come down. [March 28, 2003]

A. When employees are sick, and when there is visible mold growth, a walk through type of workplace mold inspection is not enough investigation to uncover the extent and types of mold infestation. You [with or without your co-workers] should do your own workplace air mold testing [plus testing the visible mold growth] to document the mold levels and types of molds that you are having to work in at your place of employment. You can buy do-it-yourself mold test kits at a large hardware, home improvement, or safety store. With mold lab results in hand, you are in a position to complain more effectively to your local health department, your boss, and to the Occupational Health and Safety Administration. If you have documented a mold problem by testing and no governmental agency will help you and your boss continues to ignore the problem, hire a mold or environmental attorney to represent your interest in this serious problem.
