Lighting Ergonomics
Creating Safer, Healthier, and More Productive Environments with Precision Lighting
Ergonomics is the science of adapting the environment to support human performance. At View Lighting, we apply this philosophy to how light interacts with people and spaces. Our approach to lighting ergonomics isn’t just about illumination - it’s about boosting productivity, enhancing well-being, and preventing workplace fatigue across every sector we serve - from hospitals and schools to offices, industrial sites, and retail environments.
Why Lighting Ergonomics Matters
Employees receive over 85% of information through their eyes.
Lighting that is too dim, too harsh, or poorly directed doesn’t just cause eye strain - it creates ripple effects: headaches, poor posture, reduced alertness, increased errors, and even safety hazards. That’s why lighting ergonomics is essential.
Ergonomic lighting ensures:
- right amount of light for the task
- right type of light for the environment
- without glare or shadow
- circadian rhythm to support energy and mood
Glare Reduction & Shadow Management
Glare and shadows are silent productivity killers. They reduce visual comfort and increase cognitive load. Here’s how we help combat them:
To reduce glare:
- Position light sources perpendicular to screens and work surfaces
- Use diffused or indirect lighting for softer, even spread
- Install anti-glare screens and window treatments
- Avoid shiny finishes on furniture and equipment
For effective shadow management:
- Use multiple light sources to balance illumination
- Integrate task lighting to highlight specific areas
- Choose adjustable fixtures for custom control
Intensity & Colour Temperature Guidelines
Different spaces demand different light conditions. Here’s what the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) recommends:
