Good lighting plays an important role in safeguarding health at work by enabling employees to perform their work comfortably and efficiently.  Poor lighting can also be a safety hazard - misjudgement of the position, shape or speed of an object can lead to accidents and injury.

In simple terms, a lighting assessment is a careful examination of a specific task(s) and the lighting condition in general areas of the work environment.  It serves to:

• Identify the potential hazards arising from the work activity under the current lighting conditions, such as insufficient illumination, excessive contrast, glare or flicker;
• Help to determine who may be harmed; and
• Evaluate the risks and decide whether improvement measures are needed to protect the employees, including but not limited to the lighting provision.

SASM measures illuminance - displayed in lux (lx) - with a Sper Scientific Ltd. Light Meter 840006. 

The testing is followed up with a detailed assessment report which includes:

• Description of the testing strategy
• Results of testing
• Observations and recommendations
• A digital copy of the report
