    The health and safety laws depend on which country you are in, and the type of workplace eg factory, or office, or operating theatre - all would have different minimum requirements.

    allows people to notice hazards and assess risks;

    is suitable for the environment and the type of work (for example, it is not located against surfaces or materials that may be flammable);

    provides sufficient light (illuminance on the task);

    allows people to see properly and discriminate between colours to promote safety;

    does not cause glare, flicker or stroboscopic effects;

    avoids the effects of veiling reflections;

    does not result in excessive differences in illuminance within an area or between adjacent areas;

    is suitable to meet the special needs of individuals;

    does not pose a health and safety risk itself;

    is suitably positioned so it may be properly maintained or replaced, and disposed of to ensure safety; and

    includes, when necessary, suitable and safe emergency lighting.
