Light plays a far greater role in workplace health than many realise. In this conversation with light specialist Dr Shelley James, we explore how lighting influences sleep, focus and mood, and why giving people more control over their environment can improve wellbeing and productivity at work.

Lighting at work isn’t just about seeing clearly – it’s a health, safety, and productivity issue. In the first article of the Insight on Light series, Dr Lara Shemtob explains the legal requirements for workplace lighting, common problems like glare and flicker, and why getting it right matters for employees and organisations alike.
