And yet, too much light, or too little, can strain your eyes, increase your tension or cause a headache. For many people, it's a problem. Fixing the problem can be tricky if not impossible because the whole office may depend on these lights. If you can unscrew the fluorescent lights over your work area, do it. Try to make use of as much natural and nonfluorescent light as possible.
Air flow is a big problem in many modern offices.
Poor, stale air quality combined with air contaminants and fumes from office machines can get in the way of your working and performing your best. Do what you can to improve your situation. Sometimes, just being aware that there is a problem is a small first step toward a solution. Take control of your work environment as much as you can.
