Proper lighting is crucial to ensure that your workplace is positive for the productivity of your employees. Working in poor lighting is actually detrimental and can cause health problems in the long run. While setting up lights may not seem like rocket science, there are several considerations that you have to make to get the most out of it:

Using LEDs

Fluorescent bulbs, commonly known as tungsten filament bulbs, are usually cheaper. But their biggest problem is that they take up more power and end up becoming dimmer with time as they degrade in quality. 



The best solution is to use LEDs instead. They’re cost-effective, consume less power while providing equal if not more luminance than any tungsten alternative. The materials used in these are also safer for the environment, so you’re doing good in more than one way.

Positioning the Lights Properly

Using Natural Light

The best source of light costs nothing, as the sun provides ample illumination to keep your place bright enough. It won’t be bright outside all the time, but you can make the most of it by keeping those blinds down during the day. 

Once it gets dark, turn on those beautiful LEDs that you just set up for your workplace to light things up. It’s a great way of saving up on electricity bills with little to no effort on your end.
