5.1. Optimal microclimatic conditions are established by the criteria for the optimal thermal and functional state of the person. They provide a general and local sensation of thermal comfort during the 8-hour work shift with minimal stress of thermoregulation mechanisms, do not cause abnormalities in health, create prerequisites for high levels of performance and are preferred in workplaces.

5.2. The optimal values \u200b\u200bof the microclimate indicators must be observed in the workplaces of industrial premises, which are performed by operator type operations associated with neuro-emotional stress (in the cabins, on the consoles and posts of technological processes, in the halls of computing equipment, etc.). The list of other jobs and types of work under which the optimal magnitudes of the microclimate should be ensured are determined by sanitary rules for individual industries and other documents agreed with the state sanitary and epidemiological supervisory authorities in the prescribed manner.

6. Permissible microclimate conditions

6.1. Permissible microclimatic conditions are established by the criteria for the permissible thermal and functional state of the person for the period of 8-hour working siena. They do not cause damage or violations of health status, but can lead to the emergence of common and local sensations of thermal discomfort, the tension of the mechanisms of thermoregulation, deterioration of well-being and reduction of working capacity.

6.2. Permissible values \u200b\u200bof microclimate indicators are established in cases where optimal values \u200b\u200bcannot be provided with technological requirements, technical and economically substantiated reasons.

6.3. The permissible values \u200b\u200bof the microclimate indicators in the workplace must comply with the values \u200b\u200bgiven in In relation to the performance of various categories in the cold and warm periods of the year.

6.10. In industrial premises, in which the permissible regulatory values \u200b\u200bof microclimate indicators cannot be established due to technological requirements for the production process or cost-effective inexpediency, the conditions of the microclimate should be considered both harmful and dangerous. In order to prevent the adverse effects of the microclimate, protective measures should be used (for example, local air conditioning systems, air stamping, compensation for the adverse effects of one microclimate parameter by changing other, overalls and other means of individual protection, recreation and heating facilities, regulation of work time, in particular , breaks in the work, reduction of the working day, an increase in the duration of vacation, a decrease in work experience, etc.).

6.11. To assess the combined impact of microclimate parameters in order to implement the protection of possible overheating, it is recommended to use the thermal inspection of the thermal load of the medium ( ), the values \u200b\u200bof which are given in Applications 2.

6.12. To regulate the time of operation within the working shift in the conditions of microclimate with air temperature in the workplaces above or below the permissible values \u200b\u200bare recommended to be guided and Appendices 3.

7. Requirements for controlling control and methods of measuring microclimate

7.1. Measuring microclimate indicators In order to control their compliance with hygienic requirements should be carried out during the cold year of the year - in days with an outdoor temperature, different from the average temperature of the coldest winter of winter, no more than 5 ° C, during the warm period of the year - in days with the temperature of the exterior The air other than the average maximum temperature of the hottest month is not more than 5 ° C. The frequency of measurements in both periods of the year is determined by the stability of the production process, the functioning of technological and sanitary equipment.

7.2. When selecting sections and measurement time, it is necessary to take into account all the factors affecting the microclimate of jobs (the phases of the technological process, the functioning of ventilation and heating systems, etc.). Measuring microclimate indicators should be carried out at least 3 times in shift (at the beginning, middle and at the end). With oscillations of microclimate indicators associated with technological and other reasons, additional measurements must be carried out with the largest and smallest magnitudes of thermal loads on working.

7.3. Measurements should be carried out at workplaces. If a workplace is several sections of the production room, then measurements are carried out on each of them.

7.4. If there are sources of local heat generation, cooling or mohare (heated aggregates, windows, doorways, gates, open baths, etc.) Measurements should be carried out at each workplace at points, minimally and maximum remote from the sources of thermal exposure.

7.5. In rooms with a large density of workplaces, in the absence of sources of local heat generation, cooling or moisture, sections of temperature measurement, relative humidity and air velocity should be distributed evenly along the area of \u200b\u200bthe room in accordance with Table 4.

Minimum number of temperature measurement sites, relative humidity and air velocity

7.6. When working performed by sitting, temperature and air movement speed should be measured at a height of 0.1 and 1.0 m, the relative humidity of the air - at an altitude of 1.0 m from the floor or the work site. When working performed, the temperature and speed of air movement should be measured at a height of 0.1 and 1.5 m, and the relative humidity of the air - at an altitude of 1.5 m.

7.7. In the presence of radiant heat sources, thermal irradiation in the workplace must be measured from each source, having a receiver of the device perpendicular to the falling flow. Measurements should be carried out at a height of 0.5; 1.0 and 1.5 m from the floor or work platform.

7.8. The temperature of the surfaces should be measured in cases where jobs are removed from them for a distance of no more than two meters. The temperature of each surface is measured in analogously to the measurement of air temperature according to p. 7.6.

7.9. The temperature and relative humidity of the air in the presence of thermal radiation sources and air flows in the workplace should be measured by aspiration psychrometers. In the absence of measuring places of radiant heat and air flows, the temperature and relative humidity of the air can be measured by psychrometers, not protected from the effects of thermal radiation and the speed of air movement. Also devices can also be used, allowing separately measuring the temperature and humidity of the air.

7.10. The speed of air movement should be measured by rotational action anemometers (impeller, cup, etc.). Small air movement speeds (less than 0.5 m / s), especially in the presence of multidirectional flows, can be measured by thermoelectrolemometers, as well as cylindrical and ball catarerometers when they are protected from thermal radiation.

7.11. The temperature of the surfaces should be measured by contact devices (type of electrothermometers) going remote (pyrometers, etc.).

7.12. The intensity of thermal exposure should be measured by the instruments providing an angle of visibility of the sensor close to the hemisphere (at least 160 °) and sensitive in the infrared and visible region of the spectrum (actine meters, radiometers, etc.).

7.13. Measurement range and permissible measurement error must comply with the requirements

7.14. According to the results of the study, it is necessary to draw up a protocol in which general information on the production facility, the placement of technological and sanitary equipment, sources of heat generation, cooling and volatility should be reflected, the scheme for placing the measurement sections of microclimate parameters and other data.

7.15. In conclusion, the protocol should be assessed by the results of the measurements made for compliance with regulatory requirements.

Appendix 2.

Definition of the thermal load index (TNS-index)

1. Index (TNS index) is an empirical indicator characterizing the combined effect on the human body of microclimate parameters (temperature, humidity, air and thermal irradiation).

2. The TNS index is determined on the basis of the temperatures of the moistened thermometer of aspiration psychrometer (TB) and the temperature inside the shredded ball (TS).

3. The temperature inside the shredded ball is measured by the thermometer, the tank of which is placed in the center of the shredded hollow ball; TSh reflects the effect of temperature air temperature and air movement speed. The stressed ball should have a diameter of 90 mm, the minimum possible thickness and absorption coefficient of 0.95. The accuracy of temperature measurement inside the ball + -0.5 ° C.

4. The TNS index is calculated by the equation:

TNS \u003d 0.7 x TBL. + 0.3 x TSh.

The amount in payment receipts increases quarterly, especially in the crisis for the country period. But at the same time, the quality of utilities leaves much to be desired. Complex times come for tenants when the heating is turned off. In such a situation, managing companies responsible for providing DHW in apartment buildings often work unfair and tormented from responsibility.

Temperature norms

Of course, a lot depends on the preferences of tenants - some love it is cold and satisfied with low temperatures at 18 ° C, others instead of thick sweaters and socks prefer cozy warmth and 24-25 ° C. But you need to know what temperature should be in our apartment under legislation Since this depends not only by the state of the health and well-being of the family, but also the budget.

The temperature rate in the apartment is contained in " GOST R 51617-2000. Housing and communal services. General technical conditions". Here are the values \u200b\u200brequired to calculate the maximum power of heating devices. Stair marches in residential buildings should have a temperature of 14-20 ° C. This is a space that residents use briefly, no more than an hour and dressed in the upper clothes.

In the inter-worker corridors, as well as in the lobbies, the temperature is 16-22 ° C. In the hallways, residential rooms and kitchens with gas or electric plates The temperature is 18-25 ° C. These premises are designed for permanent residence (that is, more than 4 hours). The highest temperature of 24 ° C - acts for calculations in the bathroom. Also, the norm is regulated Sanitary rules and sump.

Medical norms of temperature regime in the residential room

A little about what optimal temperature should be in the home for medical recommendations. Norms in residential premises are 22 ° C. This temperature provides high thermal comfort with air humidity of 30%. If the room temperature is higher, then this may cause irritation of the respiratory tract, the appearance of mucus, increased susceptibility to bacteria and viruses in the nose and throat. The only exception is the bathroom where water vapor rises, and even higher temperatures do not threaten health.

When the child is at home, the temperature should be raised in the apartment at least 1 degree, and in the bathroom or other room, where it bathes up to 28 degrees. In the bedrooms for adults, the temperature may be slightly cooler than in the living room - about 20 ° C. This indicator guarantees a deeper sleep and, consequently, the best rest.

Control of the norm of heat

In order to maintain the above recommendations and to minimize heating costs, it is necessary to correctly monitor the heat norms, caring for the thermal insulation of the house. You need to compact window and door frames. In the room, do not cover the radiators, do not paint them with a thick layer of paint and do not hang thick window curtains over them (heaters are usually installed under the windows). Put furniture and equipment at a minimum distance - 1 meter from radiators.

The temperature schedule of the heating system in individual rooms is recommended to be adjusted using manual or electronic thermostats. When installing, even on the old heater, the electronic head can be adjusted to a temperature of up to 0.5 degrees, and to program thermal power for a whole week, taking into account the time of day and habits of local residents.

Modern thermostats will also regulate thermal power in accordance with external conditions - warming or cooling on the street, sunlight, etc. You do not need to completely turn off the heat, everything that needs to be done is to reduce the temperature, for example, by installing the economical mode in 15 ° C. Decrease of temperature even at 1 ° C increases heat savings by 5-7.5%.

Factors affecting temperature

Many factors affect the temperature testimony in the apartment, first of all external. They fluctuate due to the following conditions:

  • disconnection of heating;
  • climatic features of the place;
  • change of seasons;
  • individual features of individual apartments.

The temperature schedule of heating also depends on the place where the property owners live. For example, in northern latitude it will differ from the southern climate. The influence of such factors, as atmospheric pressure and humidity outside the room, also affect the normal value of the heat supply system indicators in any month.

When changing the seasons, the microclimate in residential rooms will also be varied. For example, during the winter months, the temperature will be lowered, and in the hot season will increase. When in the spring stop feeding heat into radiators observing the shutdown schedule, the temperature in the apartment also falls. For medium latitudes, the optimal value in winter is about 22 degrees, and in the summer - 25 degrees. At least at first glance, the difference of three degrees is insignificant, but it affects the well-being of all living in an apartment or private house.

Climate adjustment

When heating is turned off, the temperature regime in the apartment needs to be monitored to comfort all citizens living in it. There are people who are convenient and good in the hot months, they do not need to install climatic equipment. Also, some in the winter cold are constantly ventilated. But all the requirements of the average inhabitants are reflected by the current standards for any heat supply company, which has a graph of the central shutdown of heating devices. After all, the supercooling, as well as overheating, negatively act on human health.

Among other things, the norms depend on gender. Women need higher temperature indicators than men. It is very carefully necessary to observe the temperature regime in the apartment where children live. They still cannot regulate their temperature, therefore are subject to rapid, compared with adults, overheating and freezing. As a result, the thermal rate for them should be stable and reach about 22 degrees.

In accordance with the current sanitary standards of the central temperature control system, the indicators should maintain no less and not more than 22 degrees, and all deviations from this value do not affect well-being.

To maintain normal temperatures, some conditions must be observed. Previously, the temperature was adjusted using batteries, and to warm up the room more, additional heat sources were used - various electrical heaters, convectors, etc. To cool the room, opened framugues and windows, in such a way solving the problem.

Today, scientific progress made it possible to choose any climatic equipment that will provide comfortable conditions in the apartments. For example, modern air conditioners not only cool the air flow coming from the street, but also equipped with a heating function. They also have drainage functions when the room is too humid, and the purification of air from harmful connections.

Existing sanitary standards do not set the temperature of the radiators. It is only important that the temperature in the housing corresponds to certain indicators, which is affected by the differences in the climatic conditions of the respective region. Indicators in the winter months should be no lower than 20 degrees. If this value is less, then the services of the heat supply organization are poor-quality.

At the same time, real estate owners are needed:

  • seek to eliminate bad work on the provision of municipal service;
  • demand from the management company when the heating is unscheduled;
  • carefully close all the slots in the windows and doors;
  • buy additional equipment for heating the room;
  • put autonomous thermal devices.

How to increase or decrease the temperature

By GOST The minimum indicator in the apartment must correspond to 15 degrees. With this meaning, even though it is quite difficult and uncomfortable, but management companies believe that all regulations are observed. Because of this, the population is independently engaged in regulating the temperature mode, and when the cold or massive heating disconnects occur, the windows are installed or the windows are tightened. At worst, turn on electric heaters or convectors.

And what to do when the constant temperature in the housing reaches 28 degrees, which is happening at too hot batteries. The highest indicator in the standard is 24 degrees to which an error in 4 degrees is added. When thermostators are installed on the radiator, then there are no questions, you only need to adjust it to the desired figure.

When there are no such devices on the battery, it is not very convenient to discover constantly the windows in the room. If there is a small child in the apartment, then such actions are not out of position, older people are contraindicated. To correct the situation, you can:

  • wrap the crane in front of the radiator;
  • put the air recuperator.

When overlapping the ball crane in front of the battery, you will reduce the amount of hot water that is served. The heat recuperator will be allowed to circulate airflows correctly, and the air flow will fall into the housing already heated.

Optimal temperature in the heating season

Kaya is clear from the foregoing, comfortable value in the apartment is established SNIP In 20-22 degrees. Possible indicators are defined within 18-26 degrees, in accordance with the purpose of housing. Kitchen, residential rooms and bathrooms have different norms. The errors correspond to 3 degrees of reduction and 4 degrees of increasing indicators. Unfortunately, according to the current legislative acts, when the apartment is 15 degrees above zero, it is impossible to make complaints to managers. Also at a temperature of 30 degrees, when the battery is heated as much as possible. Here, as they say, - you want to live - I will be able to ripe and address the relevant authorities.

Responsibility of public utilities in violations

According to the law, employers and owners of housing have the right to seek recalculation of management companies that are obliged to reduce 0.15 percent per hour of violation of standards. If you calculate, then in 28 days of the inadequate provision of the payment service is reduced to 90 percent. Naturally, utilities themselves do not fulfill this recalculation, so you have to go to courts.

There are many cases when residents of apartment buildings have noticed money from public utilities for not fully or low-quality services. For example, three years ago, Perm managed to recover from the management company 136 thousand rubles for violation of their obligations to provide heat in the apartment. Therefore, you should defend your rights and contact.

Conclusion

Ensure the temperature on the current standards and regulations is obliged to the management company at the place of residence. As a result, with identified cases of non-compliance with the quality of heating services, it is necessary to report in this organization and, if required, to issue an act.

If it comes to a private residential building, it is necessary to check the supplied heating devices, increasing the efficiency of batteries or modern efficient devices.

Almost all citizens of the country spend most of the day for several decades at work. In order for the health of the working people did not deteriorate due to employment on a particular enterprise, the law obliges employers to take care of creating a comfortable microclimate in office space. It would seem that the work of office staff cannot be considered difficult, but the fulfillment of their duties is associated with hypodynamines (lack of body mobility), which means that the wrong temperature will affect the health of the personnel quickly. It is for this reason that legislation strictly regulates the sanitary standards of temperature in the office.

WHY SANITARY TEMPERATURES IN THE OFFICE MUST MUST

Employees who spend the entire working day in the office of the company are engaged in mental labor - they draw up documentation, work at the computer, arrange negotiations with customers and counterparties, solve operational tasks, respond to correspondence, develop projects, etc. Combines the listed functions that they are all running in a sitting position - office staff suffer from hypodynamies, that is, lack of movement. This mode of operation negatively affects the state of health, and the unfavorable temperature regime only aggravates the position.

Scientists have conducted a lot of studies, the results of which showed that the deviation of the temperature indicator from the norm within the limits of just one degree so negatively affects the effectiveness of office work, which it is advisable to reduce the work day to the employer, if the optimal microclimate in the room is not possible. It follows that the employer is obliged to observe the sanitary standards of temperature in the office not only because this requires the law, but also due to a sharp reduction in the productivity of personnel.

What is meant by comfortable working conditions and optimal conditions

In order for the work of office personnel to become more efficient, the employer needs to create comfortable conditions for work. But the concept of comfort is subjective - each employee may have its own idea of \u200b\u200bcomfortable working conditions, it all depends on individual preferences, and this fully touches the temperature regime. One employee prefers that the office was "fresh", the other complains about the air conditioning and the incessant runny nose. How, in this case, the employer determine the "necessary" temperature indicator?

In fact, the concept of "comfort" does not apply in regulatory acts and official documents. Therefore, the employer is not obliged to carry out surveys among the workers in order to find out what air temperature will give their consent. In professional vocabulary, the term "optimal conditions" is used. The optimal air temperature in the office premises was determined by carrying out a plurality of complex physiological studies and calculations, taking into account the average human resources. And the employer can only be followed by the developed standards given in regulatory documents.

Sanitary temperature standards in the office - Sanpin

All the necessary information about sanitary standards, including concerning the air temperature in the office, the employer may find in Sanpin - sanitary rules and norms - which is a special code that defines optimal health and hygienic standards for various areas of human life, including employment. SanPine is obligatory for use, since this documentation is legislative (Art. 209 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, Art. 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

The list of specific measures that should be taken to employers to ensure optimal working microclimate are given in the text of Article 163 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

Important! The sanitary standards of temperature in the office are given in the text of Sanpina 2.2.4.548-96 "Hygienic requirements for microclimate of industrial premises", the norms of which are adopted in accordance with the Federal Law of 03/30/1999 No. 52.

Requirements for temperature in the office in the summer and winter season

Since in the summer and winter, the employer provides an optimal temperature in different ways, the microclimate requirements also differ. Sanpin obliges employers to take certain measures if the temperature cannot be installed.

A long impact on the body of a high temperature has a detrimental effect on the health of employees and their performance. The situation is aggravated by closed windows, a large accumulation of people, high humidity, working office equipment, the presence of a dress code in the enterprise. Cold offices also do not contribute to good well-being and effective work, especially for employees who cannot warm themselves movement. For some manufacturing workers, a short-term reduction in temperature is permissible up to 15 s, but not for office employees. The permissible temperature range is as follows:

Important! Installation of the air conditioner and its timely service is the responsibility of the employer, and to collect money from employees (or to hold the salary to the climatic equipment is unacceptable.

If the employer does not comply with the sanitary standards of temperature in the office, the legislation allows employees to reduce their working hours depending on the thermometer indicators:

Temperature in the office Duration of the day
29 S.6 hours (instead of 8)
30 S.Cutting for 2 hours
Each subsequent degree exceeding the normReduction of the working day for 1 hour for each degree above the norm
32.5 C.1 hour
19 S.7 o'clock
18 S.6 o'clock
Each subsequent degree below the normReduction of the working day for 1 hour for each degree below the norm
13 S.1 hour

Naturally, the work itself and the workplace are different. It is impossible to put the working conditions of the loader, banker and a bulldozer to one bar. Each profession has permissible temperature standards in which people are allowed to work. According to "Appendix No. 1 GOST 12.1.005-88, the general sanitary and hygienic requirements for the air of the working area" All types of work are divided into certain categories in which there are its permissible ranges and microclimatic conditions.

In this article, let's talk more about working conditions in the office, or rather, about its temperature mode.

For some, perhaps, the following information will be discovered. Do you know that the temperature that does not comply with the standards prescribed in the Labor Code reduces your working hours on the clock?

Now someone giggled, because everyone is well aware that in our country, as a rule, it is difficult to achieve justice and legality, but still. Knowing this information, naturally your work day will not cut to one hour, but there will be an extra reason to take off early home or demand money for overtime.

Of course, the most active workers can write complaints of the leadership, which refuses to provide optimal temperature conditions of work. We sincerely believe that you will succeed to succeed in this check.

Measure the temperature in the workplace in the office

And so, where to watch the permissible humidity and temperature. "Hygienic requirements for microclimate of industrial premises. Sanpin 2.2.4.548-96 "is exactly the official document that you need. It has clearly prescribed requirements for the temperature regime in the office. Relying on these laws, boldly go to the manual and require a workplace that meets all the established rules.

According to certain temperature standards, at the workplace of office employees, in the summer, there should be no hotter for 23-25 \u200b\u200bdegrees. If we are talking about the cold moment, then 22-24 degrees. Permissible thermometer indicators, provided that the humidity of the air is 40-60%.

Naturally, there are permissible deviation rates that constitute only 1 or 2 degrees., Not more. During the working day, the temperature can change no more than four degrees.

About such conditions, you must work in the office lasting 8 hours. When the temperature rises by one degree (for example, the permissible temperature is 25 degrees., But, during the day, it rose to 4 degrees, which no longer matches the law), demand early to leave work, namely an hour. Those, if it is 29 degrees, it means the working day in the office is only 7 hours, 30 degrees - 6 hours, etc.

When the thermometer in the office crossed the mark of 32.5, in an hour you have the right to go home.

Approximately the same situation in the cold season. At a temperature of 19 degrees, the working day is 7 hours, 18 degrees. - 6 hours, etc.

To accurately determine the temperature, it is necessary to hang a thermometer to a height of 1 meter from the floor.

In general, the employer will be more profitable to install air conditioning or heater in the workplace, rather than pay the penalty provided for by the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, for non-observance of sanitary rules. Therefore, do not hesitate and do not be afraid of your bosses. Watch out that you can work comfortably and pleasantly to work in your workplace.

Do you want the staff to always work efficiently? Agree that it is difficult to think about things when a person is discomfort. Therefore, the temperature in the workplace must be appropriate. After reading our material, you will learn which temperature standards in the workplace are installed by Sanpin for 2017 and in the future, what it should be in the office in the winter and summer, as well as the violation of the employer.

Why need Sanpine standards

Employers are required to create not only safe conditions in the workplace, in the office, but also maintain a comfortable atmosphere. Including temperature, level of humidity, etc. This follows from article 21 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

The corresponding norms are set to work for 8 hours per day (40 hours per week) did not harm the health of the employee. In addition, comfortable conditions have a positive effect on staff performance.

Setting the temperature standards in the work room, necessarily pay attention to the humidity, the speed of air movement, surface temperature, etc.

Indicators of the norms under consideration may differ, since the degree of load and types of work are usually different. For example, in the casting shops, the average temperature is kept in the area of \u200b\u200b35-37 degrees. And what should be the temperature in the workplace in the office?

Temperature regime of office

The less physical exertion is performed by a person, the warmer should be indoors. Office workers spend most of the time at the computer, the maximum moves from the office to the office. Therefore, the temperature for such conditions is established based on these factors.

Of course, the temperature standards in the workplace in winter differ from the temperature rate in the workplace in the summer. Next, we will clearly demonstrate it.

According to Sanpin 2017, the temperature in the office in the office in the warm season should be 23-25C with relative humidity of 40-60%. In this case, the temperature of the surfaces is from 22 to 26c, and the speed of air movement is up to 0.1 m / s.

In the cold season, the office should be from 22 to 24C (humidity and air movement speed are similar). The optimal surface temperature is 21-25C.

When making a decision, follow:

  • SanPine 2.2.4.548-96<Гигиенические требования к микроклимату производственных помещений> (paragraph 5, 6, 7 and Appendix 1);
  • Sanpin 2.2.4.3359-16 "Sanitary and epidemiological requirements for physical factors in workplaces."

The employers need to know exactly what temperature should be in the work room, since when non-compliance with the norms, it is possible to draw responsibility.

Consequences of Violation of Sanpine

When the working conditions deviate from the norms and the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the duration of the labor day should be reduced. For example, office personnel can work indoors at 13c no more than 1-4 hours.

Responsibility for this violation of labor legislation is provided by Part 1 of Art. 5.27.1 COAP of Russia. The employers and officials impose a fine:

  • 2000 - 5000 rubles. on merchants;
  • 50,000 - 80,000 on legal entities;
  • 2000 - 5000 rubles. on officials.

Once again we recall that create and maintain the temperature in the workplace on the standards of Sanpina - the obligation of the employer. To do this, use a variety of air conditioners, heaters t. P. Observing the established standards, you can avoid multiple conflicts, as well as downtime related to diseases of workers.
