I have one office where staff are continually complaining of dry eyes. What should be my initial response to this? I may eventually, I know, have to call in an expert at considerable cost to do some measurements, but I may be able to deal with this immediately at a lesser cost if you can suggest some alternative course of action. Thank you

Hi Ian,

this looks like it should have been posted on the OSH discussion forum, as its a general H&S question and not concerned with study. That's not a problem, but you are more likely to get an answer if you repost on the other forum,

Ian, have you considered potted plants (regularly watered of course) to increase the atmospheric humidity of the office?

There have been several recent threads on the issue, see:

and:

Someone will need to be "Plant Monitor" though.

You can also buy a humidifier.
