Risks for restaurant staff from gas stoves
A study of 27 commercial kitchens in California, Pennsylvania, and New York found that gas appliances expose workers to harmful air pollutants, including nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, and benzene, often surpassing safety standards.

All-electric kitchens did not show these issues, highlighting potential benefits of transitioning to electric appliances for improving safety and air quality.
