Ms Laura Burke:

Joking aside, radon has been detected in workplaces. In a number of workplaces, tested radon has been found to be high. When one considers the amount of time people spend in a workplace, testing is important. Remediation is needed as well. We sometimes think only about radon levels in houses, but it is also present in other places where we spend time.
