Hazmat crews inspected a Kenessaw business for the second time this month after employees complained of nausea and slight difficulty breathing, Cobb County fire spokesman Dan Dupree said.

Two workers got sick, but they were not taken to the hospital Dupree said. The employees worked for Philips Respironics, Channel 2 Action News reported.

“Hazmat crews entered the building and assessed with monitors,” Dupree said. No leaks or hazardous vapors were found  in the building.

This is the second time in a month this has happened at the business. The first incident happened April 8.

Philips Respironics makes sleep and respiratory products, according to the company's website.
