5. Conclusion

In this article, qualitative methods and advice are offered to improve the safety of installations involving artificial incoherent light sources in the world of work. Since the decree of July 2, 2010, which stems from the European directive of April 2006, the French Labor Code has imposed increasingly precise obligations with regard to this risk. Today, the classification of incoherent sources is not a widely-used tool for determining the presence of a lighting risk in a given experiment, and emissions from sources are not often compared with the ELVs of Decree no. 2010-750 and/or the standard NF EN 62471 There is no doubt that this information is being disseminated within companies, even though quantitative evaluations are not intuitive.
