Does anyone know what the temperature and humidity parameters are? The hall I’m working in feels so sticky, humid and heavy.

That’s really wet air, what do you do in that hall? Water related?
Considering it’s winter and outside air is dry, this is quite humid. Dew point is around 12-13 degrees so you are quite likely getting water condensation in structures (at or near windows, doors and other cold bridges).
You might want to look into ventilation and see whether it’s working.
Comfortable humidity is 30-40%
Depends what you are doing, but comfortable working temperature should be about 18°C, and humidity around 35%
Our workplace is 14 degrees right now with a jacket it’s just bearable.
That percentage is relative humidity. If it’s 100% that means there’s as much water vapor in the air that is possible in that certain temperature. Usually comfortable air humidity is around 40%, during winter it’s usually much lower especially if the building has mechanical ventilation.
Dew point is 11.5C it’s gonna rain soon.
You should not work under these conditions. That’s not ok
Edit: looks like there is an issue with the ventilation.
Temporary fix is we have to open up all the doors .. lol
Euuugggh, having grown up in the US south (North Carolina), that is–yeah, that would feel AMAZINGLY STICKY.
A perfect humidity level is 40%.
A bit less or more (30% – max 50%) should be ok. 70% is too much and it’s not healthy.
Hahaha coming from Auckland, New Zealand where humidity is regularly in the 80’s and 90’s I looked at that and was like “oh that looks completely fine” 😂😂😂
