Poor workplace lighting can lead to slips, trips, and falls, as well as inability to exit a space safely, difficulty operating equipment, and a host of other hazards. Workplace lighting must take into account quantity, quality, direction and a number of other factors to ensure safety. In addition, lighting types can cause problems themselves, for example, some types take a while to warm up and some types impact appearance of colors, which can lead to inability to recognize safety signs, for example.
