Is sleeping in house after applying polyurethane safe?

Polyurethane is fully inert and safe for people. Although the polyurethane finish is harmless once it has dried and cured, the finish emits potentially dangerous compounds into the air throughout the drying and curing process, a process known as off-gassing. It is not advised to sleeping in a house with uncured polyurethane.
