TL;DR: It is argued that existing evidence is sufficiently strong to warrant engineering controls targeting airborne transmission as part of an overall strategy to limit infection risk indoors, and that the use of engineering controls in public buildings would be an additional important measure globally to reduce the likelihood of transmission.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results of a literature survey aimed at exploring how the indoor environment in buildings affects human comfort, including thermal, visual and acoustic, as well as air quality.

TL;DR: This study shows the benefits for health, comfort and productivity of ventilation at rates well above the minimum levels prescribed in existing standards and guidelines and confirms the results of a previous study in the same office when the indoor air quality was improved by decreasing the pollution load while the ventilation remained unchanged.

TL;DR: Reducing the pollution load on indoor air proved to be an effective means of improving the comfort, health and productivity of building occupants.

TL;DR: Satisfaction with amount of space was ranked to be most important for workspace satisfaction, regardless of age group (below 30, 31-50 or over 50 years old), gender, type of office (single or shared offices, or cubicles), distance of workspace from a window, or satisfaction level with workspace (satisfied or dissatisfied).
