Hydration. As summer
approaches, ensure that you know where in your workplace you can go
for a steady, reliable supply of clean drinking water. If this is
something difficult to locate or access, then come prepared daily
with your own supply. If you are an employer, you should encourage
good hydration in the workplace at all times, but most especially in
the heat. Be sure that you provide workers with a dependable water
supply, and encourage them to use it. In doing your part to promote
good hydration, you are taking effective measures to protect the
health of your employees. You'll likely see a quick improvement in
performance as a result of doing this too.
Frequent breaks. As an
employee, you obviously do not necessarily determine the number and
the timing of the breaks you are permitted, but if you have any say
in the matter, space your breaks out evenly throughout the day.
Additionally, make good use of the breaks you have to actually rest,
eat properly, and care for your body. All too often, because we are
so busy, we use our breaks to get tasks and errands done, which just
furthers our own exhaustion. Be sure you are resting well. If you are
an employer, review your break policy to ensure that it allows your
staff to properly recharge.
Moderate temperatures.
Constantly fluctuating between hot and cold temperatures can be very
stressful on the body, and can intensify the symptoms of heat
exhaustion. Try to avoid this shock by doing what you can to keep the
air around you at a consistent temperature. Do what you can to limit
the amount of time you spend rushing out into scorching heat, and
back into ultra cool air-conditioned zones.
Look out for each other.
Both employers and employees are charged with the same task here: pay
attention to those around you, in order to take note of the first
signs of heat exhaustion—like fatigue, dizziness, and confusion—as
soon as they strike. If you notice that somebody is unwell, send them
home if it is within your authority to do so, or inform superiors of
this otherwise.
