AEM
can provide audits on the microbial status of air handling units. The audits
are based on a paper written by Dr Wilson which was published in the Journal of
Occupational and Environmental Hygiene in May 2007.

Indoor Air Quality and the Law
AEM audits can address the requirements in codes of practice for
managing the work environment and facilities such as the code under section 274
of the Work Health and Safety Act (the WHS Act). Codes of
practice are admissible in court proceedings under the WHS Act and Regulations
In
terms of Commonwealth buildings, AEM audits also satisfy the requirements for Commonwealth
employers who are bound by a duty of care as set out by the Occupational Health
and Safety Act 2000. "Directors and employers are required to take measures to
ensure that their employees and any other person who enters into their normal
working environment are not exposed to harmful airborne contaminants in their
buildings".
