HSW Justification: This seminar explores the lighting industry to discuss materials, standards, research, and other lighting entities that support human health and environmental sustainability. The featured discussion considers ways to navigate specifications to include environmentally responsible materials and Red List Free textiles containing no hazardous ingredients. We examine standards, such as LBC 4.0, LEED, Declare label certification, and WELL, and look for the best solutions with regard to human performance, productivity, and well-being in lit environments.

Learning Objectives:

- To gain knowledge of the latest updates, advancements, and improvements to current standards and programs

- To navigate the system of specifying human beneficial lighting

- To understand what materials to look for that could be potentially hazardous in luminaires

- To understand how we validate the use of technical data required in establishing the verification of these standards
