Have you ever wondered why there is no specific legislation covering maximum workplace temperatures? The simple answer is that no one temperature would sufficiently cover all workplaces. For example, some industries such as foundries and bakeries, through their work processes, naturally generate hot temperatures. However, with proper heat stress programs in place, work can be safely carried out at these high temperatures.

This month, we want you to think about campfire safety. Make sure if you’re having a backyard campfire you have water to extinguish any out of control flames. But beyond that, what other safe practices do you follow? We also like to keep the “skeeters” away with citronella candles and mosquito spray.
