Fragrance, scent, chemical-free zones, also known as scent-free or fragrance-free areas, are designated spaces where the use of perfumes, scented products, and chemical-based fragrances is restricted or prohibited. These accommodations help reduce exposure to airborne irritants that can trigger allergies, asthma, migraines, or chemical sensitivities for many individuals. By limiting scents and chemicals in shared environments, these zones promote healthier, more inclusive spaces that support well-being and comfort. They are commonly implemented in workplaces, schools, and public areas to create safer environments for people with respiratory challenges or sensory sensitivities.
Start by clearly marking the fragrance-free zone with signs and communicating guidelines to all users. Encourage employees or visitors to avoid wearing scented products or using fragranced cleaning supplies in these areas. Regularly clean the space with unscented or hypoallergenic products to maintain air quality. Monitor compliance through feedback and adjust policies as needed to support a healthy, comfortable environment for everyone.
Disclo streamlines requests, documentation, and tracking for Fragrance, Scent, Chemical-Free Zone(s), so HR teams and employees spend less time on paperwork and more time working productively.
