3. Energy Efficient

New inventions have transformed the lighting industry and changed our workplaces for the better. You can direct LED lights in specific areas to increase efficiency even more and use dimming functionality when full light isn’t necessary. For example, when you’re in the workplace bright and early.

 

4. Safety

It may seem obvious, but the better a workplace is lit, the safer it is. Specific workplaces such as factories and production lines, where workers need to see with good detail, will really benefit from LED lighting. Creating a well-lit environment is crucial; LED lights will ensure a brighter area and in turn a better, much safer workplace.

7. Live for longer

 Many LED lights have a rated life of up to 50,000 hours, which is much longer than an average halogen or CFL. LEDs can be used 12 hours a day and will last more than 11 years. So although it may be more expensive initially, purchasing LED lighting is an instant investment.

Lighting is often overlooked when it comes to employee health and wellbeing in the workplace even though it plays a key part in maintaining a positive working environment. LED lighting has been proven to provide a healthier and happier workplace.
