Temperatures are due to rise across the UK! It’s important to recognise that heat is not just uncomfortable, it is a workplace health and safety risk.
Heat stress occurs when the body can no longer regulate its internal temperature effectively. This can result in fatigue, reduced concentration, dehydration, heat exhaustion and, in severe cases, heatstroke
From an occupational health perspective, this has direct implications for health, safety and productivity. Evidence shows that heat exposure increases physiological strain, contributes to workplace accidents, and reduces work capacity
