Contraintes thermiques – Chaud et froid (Version anglaise)

Description

The exposure of workers to a hot or cold environment can be unpleasant under certain circumstances, but become a major safety issue when these environments pass to extreme levels. When it comes to working in hot or cold environments, our first reflex is to associate thermal constraints with outdoor work carried out during heatwaves or freezing cold. However, thermal constraints also apply to work carried out inside buildings, such as in steel mills and refrigerated warehouses, for example.

 

To identify risks and put preventive and corrective actions to use, it is essential to inform and train workers faced with thermal stresses in the workplace. Les coups de chaleur et les gelures, entre autres, peuvent survenir subitement et c’est pourquoi les travailleurs doivent connaître les signes et symptômes annonciateurs de ces problématiques de santé.
