Main Design Aspects of YLE's (Finnish Broadcasting Co.) New Film Laboratory in Helsinki

A new film laboratory began operating in 1979 in YLE's (Finnish Broadcasting Co.) Helsinki Radio and Television Center. Because of the stringent labor protection legislation in Finland, special care was taken to ensure good working conditions. Daylight has, if possible, been provided for all working rooms, noise levels of the working areas have been kept as low as possible, and hazards caused by toxic chemicals have been minimized. In over two years of daily operation the laboratory proved to satisfy the requirements placed upon it in the planning phase. The workers, labor unions, and occupational safety authorities have been satisfied with its safety precautions.
