Ventilation in vehicles used for work purposes

nibusinessinfo has the following guidance on ventilation in work vehicles.

Make sure workers switch on ventilation systems while they’re using work vehicles. It is important to remember that they should be set to draw in fresh air and not to recirculate cabin air. Encourage your employees to keep vehicle windows open. If it’s cold they can leave the heating on to keep the vehicle comfortable.

If it’s safe to do so, opening doors of vehicles at stops or between different passengers will help to change the air quickly. Keeping windows open when the vehicle is moving or opening vehicle windows fully for a few minutes when stopped can also help clear the air.
