The study was survey research using a questionnaire comprisingof indoor air complaints in office environments and work related symptoms. A number of respondents were 214 or the response rate was 96%. Results show that the reported indoor air complaints with a rate of over 30% were noise and varying room temperature, while the reported work-related symptoms with a rate of over 20% were fatigue and feeling heavy-headed. The differences in genders and allergic history statistically influenced the percentage of respondents who reported the indoor air complaints and work-related symptoms.
