While we may be enjoying the Mediterranean-temperatures we have had lately, it’s important to remember to stay safe in summer sun, especially when temperatures soar much higher than normal.

The steps you can take to help keep you, and other employees safe, can differ depending on the type of work you do and the conditions of your work environment However, there are some basic steps that everyone can take, such as:

  • Opening windows, and using air conditioning and fans where they are available.
  • Avoiding direct sunlight, and seeking shaded shelter, when possible.
  • Applying sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30, and reapplying it regularly.
  • Drinking more fluids than normal, even when you don’t feel thirsty.

These tips and more are included on our FREE Stay Safe In Summer Sun Poster, which can be used to help increase awareness of safety in higher temperatures in your workplace.
