The office-sharing company said the affected phone booths were in some WeWork locations in the U.S. and Canada. It took several phone booths out of service last week and could take another 700 phone booths out of service as a precautionary measure. The "potentially elevated levels of formaldehyde" were caused by an issue with the manufacturer, a WeWork spokesperson said in a statement. The phone booths will be removed "as soon as possible," the spokesperson added.
