Abstract

High mast floodlighting at outdoor workplaces has economic advantages but suffers from shortcomings such as glare. This study was made to collect and evaluate data from a situation with glare from a physical and occupational health standpoint. When unloading timber, the worker's gaze is frequently directed upward, whereas conventional glare indexes for luminaires assume the gaze is diagonally downwards. It was found that reduced visual acuity could cause difficulty in normal working routines.
