Climate Control RentalAlmost everyone in the UK today enjoys central heating in their home and understands the comfort which can be provided by air conditioning whilst either shopping or travelling in their cars; as a result, they expect more in their place of work. Now there is reasonable evidence which supports the issue of controlling temperature in the workplace. Recent examination has revealed evidence that concentration is reduced and with the consequent knock on effect on productivity when in a workplace which is too cold or too hot; this can cause workers to feel tired, become irritable - lack of concentration may also lead to greater risk of accident. As a customer, we are more unlikely to spend time within or return to establishments that do not make us feel comfortable. An acceptable temperature in the Workplace Temperatures between 16C/61F to 24C/72F have been unofficially suggested as suitable for most types of work, and the suggestions below have been provided by the Chartered Institute of Building Services for temperatures in different work areas:
Is There A Minimum Working Temperature? There is a minimum working temperature between 13C/55F AND 16C/61F; this is enforceable, and has been set by Health & Safety Executive. Below this temperature, employees do have the effective right to refuse to work, although an employer is by and large allowed an hour, from the start of work, to achieve this temperature. Is There A Maximum Working Temperature? No maximum working temperature has been set by Health & Safety Regulations; however it is stated that "During working hours, the temperature inside workplace buildings must be reasonable". The Approved Code of Practice (ACOP) to the regulations has set out that "all reasonable steps should be taken to achieve a comfortable temperature". This could include the provision of suitable fans, air-cooling, portable air conditioning, or Climate Control equipment. Our Cooling Calculator will give you a good indication of your requirements.
