Good lighting can reduce musculoskeletal symptoms and eye strain.
When organizing a workplace, it is necessary to assess how much lighting is needed and what kind of light sources are most suitable. If the work or working conditions change, lighting and light sources may need to be revised.
In general, lighting from behind should be avoided as much as possible, since then you are working in the shadow of your own body.
It is best to use daylight when working, but of course in Iceland you must often add to that light.
When working on computer screens, it is best if the lighting comes from the side.
Lighting for computer work should take into account whether the screen has a light or dark background.
To prevent glare and reflections from screens and other equipment, consider adjusting the layout of the workplace according to the guidelines provided.
