I work in a factory that has a shaft running under our work desk. The factory has been many different things in the past including a modular home factory. The people in this little office keep getting bitten by something and it makes us itch and leaves little red marks and when you scratch they turn into welts. Now just recently one of the girls that sits next to me said she seen one land on her and it was green. These are so tiny I don't see them. I have marks on my neck and my arm is just horrible. They bite your legs. We don't know what it is, but it's not in our hair. Can somebody help?

They could be gnats. Tell your boss and notify higher ups. They need to exterminate.
It sounds like thrips. The company needs to know and follow their policies for getting rid of them. Be very careful and if the bites get warm or red, seek medical attention as this could be an infection or allergic reaction. You will probably need to fill out an incident report since this happening at work, and you will need to see their doctor, if this is under worker's comp.
This almost sounds like no seem em bugs. They can live in the wood or even sand. They are tiny and when they bit you do not see them but the bit really stings. After the bite turns red and if you itch the bit it will swell up and get a water type blister on them.
