Arbejdstilsynet's Guidelines

Arbejdstilsynet´s Guidelines

Arbejdstilsynet's guidelines aim to foster a healthy and safe work environment by regulating crucial aspects like indoor temperature and air quality. These guidelines ensure that workplaces maintain comfortable temperatures suitable for different levels of physical activity and provide adequate ventilation to prevent pollutant buildup. By controlling factors such as temperature, humidity, and air quality, these regulations minimize health risks, promote well-being, and enhance overall workplace comfort and employee satisfaction.

Requirements for Compliance with Arbejdstilsynet´s Guidelines

Temperature Control

Workplaces should maintain temperatures between 20°C and 22°C for sedentary work, with a maximum of 25°C. For light work, the minimum temperature is 18°C, while high-intensity physical tasks require a minimum of 10°C.

Climify continually tracks temperatures in real time, keeping them within specified limits to ensure thermal comfort.

Ventilation

Adequate ventilation is crucial for good air quality, ensuring proper air change rate to keep CO₂ below 1000 ppm.

Climify tracks ventilation and CO₂ levels, optimizing air quality and ensuring compliance with health standards.

Humidity Control

Humidity must be kept between 25-60% to prevent mold and health issues.

Climify monitors humidity levels, alerting you to potential problems to maintain a safe environment.

Noise Levels

Noise should not exceed 85 dB(A) over an 8-hour workday to protect hearing.

Climify can integrate noise monitoring, providing alerts when levels exceed safe limits.

Air Quality

Workplaces should ensure air quality free from harmful pollutants like dust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other gaseous pollutants.

Climify monitors air quality to ensure your workspace meets health standards.

Document and Reports

Arbejdstilsynet may require proof of compliance with guidelines on indoor temperature and air quality.
