The applicant will help the colleagues of the Uni- versity of Athens to set up analogous studies in Greece. The University of Athens department of Chemistry is inte- rested in the project, and has the necessary laboratory facilities for the determination of levels of the indoor environmental pollution (ex. VOCs and heavy metals) in small and medium size companies. The study will comprise both the environmental evaluation as well as the possible health effects and the protective measures practiced in the workplaces sampled. The Confederation of Small and Medium Size Enterprises of Greece has endorsed the project and has promised its collaboration. (See attached letter).
