There are certain factors that everyone knows affect workplace productivity, but there is one important factor often overlooked by most employers across the globe: lighting. Sure, it\u2019s common knowledge that reading in the dark can harm your eyes, but lighting has effects well beyond that, and an employer\u2019s choice of lighting can have a significant impact on the productivity of her company.<\/p>\n
Consider this: A study conducted by the American Society of Interior Design indicated that 68 percent of employees complain about the lighting situation in their offices. The fact that such a substantial number of employees disliked the lighting in their offices enough to complain about it implies that many employers could be making the same mistakes. The two most common scenarios for poor office lighting are lights that are too dim and lights that are too harsh.<\/p>\n
The Drawbacks of Artificial Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n The first culprit, dim lights, can be detrimental to productivity for several reasons. First, dim lighting can cause eye strain and headaches, because, when lighting is inadequate, the eyes are forced to work much harder in order to see. Dim lighting can also result in drowsiness and lack of focus, which would obviously have a negative impact on employee motivation. The second culprit, harsh lighting, is much more common than dim lighting and is just as harmful. Florescent lighting, especially, has a number of negative effects on employees, as it has been known to cause eye strain, and it is also cited as a trigger for migraine headaches. This harsh lighting also makes it more difficult for the eye to focus, so alternatives should be sought whenever possible.<\/p>\n Proper Lighting\u2019s Effect on Productivity<\/strong><\/p>\n According to some studies, the impact is substantial, and, although the initial cost of a lighting renovation could seem daunting, the gains due to energy savings and- more importantly- productivity gains more than make up for the cost of the investment.<\/p>\n With light being a key component of vision, and vision being responsible for 80 to 85 percent of our perception of the world around us, it\u2019s not difficult to see why ignoring proper lighting strategies in your office could have a significant negative impact on productivity. Harsh lighting and dim lighting are equally detrimental to the productivity of your workers, and, by opting instead for more natural lighting or other lighting systems that have been proven effective, you stand to not only save energy but also increase productivity among your business\u2019s employees.<\/p>\n \u0397 Manager\u2019s Office Lighting and Productivity Business Advices There are certain factors that everyone knows affect workplace productivity, but there is one important…<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4448,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n
