Employee safety is a top concern for any successful organization. Companies spend millions of dollars a year investing in formulating regulations, processes, and equipment to enhance worker safety. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has revitalized its efforts to enforce and regulate their safety standards. OSHA has increased their penalties by 78% since 2015. Companies are losing business opportunities, employee trust and revenue due to non-compliance. In 2016, a major manufacturing company of chain link fences was issued over $199,990.00 in OSHA penalties. These penalties included hazardous working conditions, lack of personal protective equipment and inadequate lighting for its workers.

Proper lighting for the workplace is vital to secure the safety of your employees and the longevity of productive workflow. In addition, an improper light configuration can also affect worker safety. Poorly distributed lighting, the improper contrast of lighting surfaces, fixture glare, and bulb flickering are all examples of improper lighting. Having your facility evaluated with a properly calculated photometric survey takes the guesswork out of knowing if your employees will have enough light to be safe and productive.
