We start you on the strong ones: findings that have been replicated or come from one large, well-controlled study. Moderate and weak facts are here too, labeled for what they are. Use “Link to this fact” to share a single card.
What you can do / Other evidence
The CHRC says a scent-free policy should list the types of products to avoid, be flexible, be mentioned in a letter of offer, and that an employee with environmental sensitivities who must leave because of a trigger should not suffer negative impacts.
Weak evidence: Guidance for federally regulated employers; no evidence on effectiveness, and a person outside that sector cannot rely on it as a legal entitlement.
