Offices are where employees can spend a lot of time staring at screens, paperwork and carrying out administrative tasks. Poor lighting can makes these tasks more difficult, result in employee vision problems, sickness, poor mood, and time off.
Poor lighting can have a detrimental affect on your business so it is very important to ensure that any office environment has optimum levels of sufficient lighting that not only allow tasks to be carried out safely and efficiently but also improve the mood and morale of employees.
Lighting upgrade in Walton on Thames
Our team of professional electricians are able to advise on the best upgrade scheme of lighting for office environments. Achieving a natural and adequate type of lighting takes skill, experience, and knowledge of light intensity levels. Our small professional team are able to assist in replacing existing lighting systems, designing new office lighting installations and ensuring that the finished products result in better morale, productivity, and reduced tiredness for employees in the office environment.
LED Office Lighting
Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology has been around for some time and recent improvements have meant that we are able to achieve all sorts of natural feeling lighting installations whilst keeping running costs down.
LED lighting is incredibly efficient and has very low premature failure rates meaning that this type of lighting is very well suited to the office environment. Many LED lighting installations are colour adjustable which will enable the mimicking of natural light. This is likely to result in better productivity and less sickness amongst the workforce.
Typically, LED fittings will outlast many other lighting technologies, be cheaper to run and more versatile meaning that they are normally the best all round choice for all businesses looking to replace their existing lighting scheme.
What to consider when upgrading lighting?
Lighting that is insufficient may result in environments being overly dim. This could result in employees feeling tired and sluggish affecting their work and well-being. Lighting that is overly bright could cause migraines and strained vision amongst workers.
Consider softer lighting and designs that diffuse the light more evenly throughout the office environment rather than glary effects from direct lighting.
Talk to us about dimmable fittings, ambient lighting, and the ability to colour control the lighting to avoid glare or harsh effects.
Don’t wait until lighting fails
Its important not to wait until lighting systems fail. When lights begin to flicker or not turn on it can impact on the employees’ ability to carry out their tasks, result in inconvenient repairs and cost more in the long run than with a regular replacement schedule in place.
