Loading bay average 50 lux: min 20 lux
Shelves/Racking Average 100 lux: min 50 lux
Offices Average 200lux: min 100 lux
These are guide lines as such they would be deemed to be suitable and sufficient(he he he)

Back here we use ISO 8995 or DIN 5035.
Values are determined in function of work task demands, glare, and temp. color.
ISO present´s an interesting ratio beetween luminance and illuminance, much more interesting in a "confort/ ergonomics " point of vue.
DIN list minimum values.

Anything from 200 to 1500 Lux (now Em I think...) depending on the work process.
You'll need to specify what work is being done to get a constructive answer.

Yes the CIBSE guidance document on lighting will give you a definitive answer specific to industry and level of detail required.

Just to clarify the above, there are no statutory levels for lighting but there is plenty of guidance.
