Information about Chemical Sensitivity. What It Is and What You Can Do to Help Provide a Fragrance-Free Environment for Employees and Customers Over 40 million people in the U.S. are sensitive to everyday chemicals, including petroleum products, commercial and household cleaning supplies, laundry detergents, and toiletries containing fragrances. (By comparison, there are 17 million diabetics in the United States.) Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, or MCS, is not an allergy or asthma and it is not treatable with drugs. It is crucial for persons with chemical sensitivities to avoid exposure to substances and fragrances that are toxic to their health. Exposure to products containing even small amounts of chemicals can cause involuntary reactions triggered in the brain, endocrine, and immune systems that may begin immediately and not subside for hours. Avoiding contact with scents is not a matter of preference--it is a serious health issue. Chemicals can cause symptoms including migraines; breathing difficulty; irritation to eyes, throat and skin; nausea; incoordination; confusion; heart palpitations; dizziness; tremors; blurred vision; and slurred speech. Many of our employees and customers/clients are careful about maintaining and improving their health by avoiding toxic products. If chemically based products and scents are present, the health of shoppers and employees is undermined. Thank you for helping to keep your workplace safe for everyone.
