Working in heat and cold
Extreme temperatures demand a lot from your body. Adapt your work, breaks and clothing.
In heat
- Drink at least half a litre of water every hour.
- Plan heavy work in the morning and take breaks in the shade.
- Use sunscreen and look out for each other.
In cold
- Dress in layers and keep hands and feet warm.
- Watch out for slippery scaffolds and road plates.
