Analysis: air conditioning

Abstract

No one can work at peak efficiency if they are too hot or too cold. They may become lethargic or irritable: they may even absent themselves from work as a result. This all adds up to less efficient work, greater liability to error, lower productivity, decline in staff morale and faster turn around of personnel. John Berry of Ove Arup and Partners discusses the role to be played by air conditioning in managing the office environment.
