Deriving the operational procedure for the Universal Thermal Climate Index (Utci)
Climate change and occupational heat stress
BACKGROUND: Presumed effects of global warming on occupational heat stress aggravate conditions in many parts of the world, in particular in developing countries. In order to assess and evaluate conditions, heat stress must be described and measured correctly. OBJECTIVE: Assessment of heat stress using internationally recognized methods. DESIGN: Two such methods are wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT; ISO 7243) and predicted heat strain (PHS; ISO 7…
Workplace heat stress, health and productivity – an increasing challenge for low and middle-income countries during climate change
BACKGROUND: Global climate change is already increasing the average temperature and direct heat exposure in many places around the world. OBJECTIVES: To assess the potential impact on occupational health and work capacity for people exposed at work to increasing heat due to climate change. DESIGN: A brief review of basic thermal physiology mechanisms, occupational heat exposure guidelines and heat exposure changes in selected cities. RESULTS: In …
