VERAMlight is a Visual Ergonomics Risk Assessment Method that can help to improve the visual working environment and create a better, sustainable, healthier, and more productive working life.
Who are we?
The founders behind VERAMlight consist of the researchers that developed the method as a research project. VERAMlight is a method to be used when assessing the visual environment, such as lighting, daylight, work posture, work task etc. It is a tool that can be used when discussing visual problems at a workplace with the management or an employee, and to give recommendations on how to improve the situation.
Our website is currently under construction but will be available with even more information in the beginning of 2024.
