The Department provides professional advice on behalf of the health and environmental protection authorities concerning health effects caused by exposure to air pollution and noise.
About the department
The department is involved in evaluating possible health effects from indoor and outdoor air pollution including pollution from traffic, industry, heating, incineration and waste disposal and evaporation from various products. The department is also involved in studies concerning the effect of noise on people’s sleep and outdoor activities. To enable this work we seek information through scientific literature, expert meetings, national and international contacts, and our own research.
