Abstract:
From the point of view of assessment of the quality of the work environment, physical factors are considered as the important risk factors because they affect the employees' senses in a significant manner and cause a burden on the nervous system. Their risk is dependent on the intensity and the time of effect on the person, the type of energy involved, the time course, the frequency and the character in relation to the work performed. External factors are also considered as indoor quality factors (temperature, humidity, airflow), but the disturbance can also cause poor lighting and noise wherever attention is needed. The article discusses how to monitor lighting at school and how lighting affects students' performance. Specifically, the measurement of indoor and outdoor lighting and assessing the quality of artificial lighting are a real-world analysis of proposed improvement measures. The suggestions concern achieving students' optimal visual well-being so that the learning process brings qualitatively higher students´ results.
