AS temperatures rise to dangerous levels with the upcoming summer season, the Department of Labor and Employment urged employers to consider flexible work arrangements to reduce the risk of heat stroke among their employees.
PAGASA noted it was able to register its most recent highest heat index in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro, where temperatures reached a blistering 47 degrees Celsius last March 25. Aside from FWA, the labor chief also recommended these measures to reduce extreme heat exposure for employees: implementation of effective ventilation and heat insulation in workplaces; adjustment rest breaks or work locations to allow recovery from heat exposure; allowing the use of temperature-appropriate uniforms and personal protective equipment; and providing access to free drinking water in workplaces.
