Report Indoor Air Quality Concerns with New Questionnaire

EHRS is now offering a questionnaire that can be filled out by anyone who has a concern about the indoor air quality (IAQ) in their work space. Concerns can range from things like odors that are causing discomfort, dusty conditions, or even illnesses or allergies. If you believe that you are having an indoor air quality issue, please complete the questionnaire available here. EHRS staff will review the questionnaire and contact you to discuss your concerns. Any IAQ concern that poses an immediate danger to life and health should be reported to Campus Safety Services at (215) 204-1234 (1-1234).

New Emergency Contact Phone Number for EHRS

If you need to reach EHRS personnel after regular business hours during the week (after 5 PM), on weekends, and on days when the University is closed, please call us at (215) 783-1899. Please do not dial the EHRS Emergency Pager, as the use of that will soon be discontinued. If you have posted the EHRS Emergency Telephone Contact, please download the new version here.
