Abstract:
The majority of workplaces were not well prepared to deal with airborne disease transmission. The COVID-19 pandemic then required the implementation of emergency measures concerning the aeration and ventilation of the premises. My talk will first come back to the reasoning that led to the development of the instructions given to companies about air renewal. Secondly, we will see what lessons could be drawn from this crisis to improve the health of workers in the long term and prevent the consequences of future pandemics, while remaining in line with the challenges of energy sobriety we are facing today.
