The indoor climate is an important part of the overall work environment. A good indoor climate with an appropriate temperature and clean, fresh air has a positive impact on your well-being. A poor indoor climate, however, may cause discomfort, headache and concentration problems.
To ensure a good indoor climate you can do the following:
*) In 2017 the faculty management decided to maintain the room temperature at 21 degrees C. to save energy. The Danish Work Environment Authorities require that the temperature is kept below 25 degrees C. except during periods with heat waves.
Note that unless necessary for heat creating processes in workshops, laboratories or server rooms, rooms in public buildings are not cooled down: Indoor temperatures will therefore never become cooler than the air drawn in from the outside. In effect a hot summer day will be felt inside too.
To maximize temperature and keep draft to a minimum during the winter season: Keep doors closed. If you feel cold we recommend bringing an extra sweater to the office.
Are you unsure if your office room temperature is set wrong or are you affected by draft, contact your work environment representative or ST building services.
The cleaning service requires that all cords are tucked away and your office accessible, in order for them to be able to clean. Get cable ties from your work environment representative.
Regarding noise: Avoid talking in the hallways, it may disturb others.
