As the country swelters many employees are thinking just how hot does it need to be until I can't work, after all there is a minimum temperature, isn't there?
Well the good news... there is guidance for low temperatures, which is 13 degrees if you are doing physical work, 16 degrees otherwise, but alas no maximum temperature and these are only government suggestions.
But, and this is important, your Employer must stick to the Health and Safety Laws which state that an employer must keep the temperature at a comfortable level, a bit difficult for some employers, builders, gardeners etc, but should be achievable in the office.
The TUC has come out and asked that employers allow employees to wear shorts and loose tops, and ditch the ties, having spent years wearing a suit this is a move I would certainly be in favour of, spare a thought for factory workers, in some cases already working in very hot environments.
Employers perhaps should consider flexible working to help, and should take on board the fact that productivity can fall dramatically in extreme heat.
So Employers, across the UK, can take some of the heat out of the situation.
