Abstract |
Effects of proper and improper lighting are discussed. Glare causes rapid tiring of the eyes. Increasing the illumination level from 500 to 1000lux raises productivity of older employees by 6%, of younger ones by 4%. Work in dark environments imposes additional strain. The new illumination systems for an office and for a workshop are described. |
