WSH Guideline --Managing Heat Stress in Workplace Scope

Working in Singapore's hot and humid weather puts workers at an increased risk of heat injuries. This publication provides an overview of preventive measures that companies can implement to minimise the risk of heat injuries developing in your workers when working in a hot environment. 

Heat acclimatisation, moderation of environmental factors and the regulation of metabolic heat production are important measures to minimise the impact of heat stress.

Work processes in such environments may emit radiant heat or have inadequate ventilation.
