The aim of the study is to investigate the office-workers’ working conditions in the ordinary and atrium-type buildings. The indoor climate conditions in the cold season in two type of university buildings are presented. The air temperature is on the good level in the both of the buildings. The rooms in the atrium-side of the building A are too tight and the ergonomics is not considered designing the workplaces in the office-rooms. In the auditoriums of the building B it is too noisy (over 70 dB(A)) during the breaks that prevents the rest and the communication between the workers and students. The air humidity is too low in both type of the buildings (< 30% in the cold season, when the rooms are central-heated). It is recommended to moisten the air in the rooms artificially. For the health risk assessment in the workrooms a flexible risk assessment model is used. The risk levels for the indoor climate factors are different in the two type of buildings.
