As a facility manager, ensuring the safety and well-being of your building's occupants is always a top priority. One critical yet often overlooked concern is the presence of PFAS, or "forever chemicals," in the environment, including the water supply. These synthetic substances, used in everything from nonstick cookware to firefighting foams, have become a growing concern due to their potential to harm human health. With new regulations on the horizon from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), it's more important than ever to stay informed on PFAS, their risks, and the steps you can take to reduce exposure in your facility. This article explores what PFAS are, how they affect health, and what actions facility managers should consider as regulations evolve.
