Course Overview

Going from bright sunlight into a dim warehouse? You might be effectively blind for several seconds.

Lighting safety isn't just about changing lightbulbs; it's about meeting specific legal standards to prevent accidents. This training short illuminates the specific OSHA requirements, like the 5 lumens needed for construction areas versus the 10 lumens required for general walkways.

We also tackle the physiology of sight. We explain why your eyes struggle to adjust when moving between drastic light changes and why keeping your tinted safety glasses on indoors is a major safety violation. Watch this video to ensure you aren't left in the dark about safety.

OSHA requires a minimum of 5 lumens per square foot for construction areas and 10 lumens per square foot for warehouses and walkways.


What should you do with your safety glasses when moving from outdoors to indoors?


You should take off your tinted safety glasses and be prepared to pause or slow down until your eyes adjust to the new light level inside the building.


What housekeeping practice is specifically mentioned regarding light switches?


You must keep the areas around light switches clear and accessible at all times.


If an indoor facility requires eye protection, what type of lenses should be used?


You should ensure you have clear lenses available for use when entering a building that requires safety glasses.
