The Dangers of Heat Stress

When a person’s core body temperature rises to a dangerous or hazardous level, the person is under the duress of heat stress. Certain working conditions place workers at risk of this danger by exposing them to hot working environments for prolonged periods of time. Symptoms include heat cramps, nausea, palpitations, stroke, and even death. Using the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Index (WBGT), workplace managers can provide an overall estimation of heat stress levels on the body. The dangers are very real, and avoidable with the proper tools. The Casella Microtherm Heat Stress WBGT provides a mechanism to monitor potential heat stress.
