The CDC just came out with a policy for all of their offices to become chemical free and fragrance free.
No products that emit fragrance will be allowed - they must be odor free. Only Green cleaning products will be allowed.
In the report it states:
"CDC encourages employees to be as fragrance-free as possible when they arrive in the workplace. Fragrance is not appropriate for a professional work environment, and the use of some products with fragrance may be detrimental to the health of workers with chemical sensitivities, allergies, asthma, and chronic headaches/migraines."
Employees should avoid using scented detergents and fabric softeners on clothes worn to the office. Many fragrance-free personal care and laundry products are easily available and provide safer alternatives.
If the CDC thinks cleaners and products with fragrance is detrimental to health - what are you doing about it in your home? Check out these products.
