Compliance & Enforcement

In Hong Kong, CIBSE Code for Lighting sets the national standard for workplace and building illumination. Buildings Department / Labour Department oversees technical compliance under Code of Practice for Lighting / BEAM Plus. Building permit applications for commercial and industrial projects require lighting design calculations. Periodic workplace inspections verify ongoing compliance with minimum illuminance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. In Hong Kong, CIBSE Code for Lighting is adopted as the national standard for workplace illumination. Buildings Department / Labour Department oversees compliance under Code of Practice for Lighting / BEAM Plus. Building permits for commercial and industrial developments require lighting calculations demonstrating conformity. Workplace safety inspections include verification of minimum illuminance levels.

Buildings that fail to meet CIBSE Code for Lighting requirements can receive improvement notices from Buildings Department / Labour Department. In severe cases, occupancy permits may be revoked until lighting is retrofitted to meet minimum levels. Employers also face occupational health liability if inadequate lighting contributes to worker injuries or health issues.

Momik reads your Revit model room by room, automatically applies CIBSE Code for Lighting illuminance targets for each space type, calculates the correct fixture placement, quantity, and layout, and generates a fully compliant lighting design — entirely within Revit. No manual lux calculations, no spreadsheets, no cross-referencing the norm tables. Typical projects are completed in under five minutes.
